My first game of the New Year was a solo L'Art de la Guerre (ADLG) game with Macedonians versus Indians. I'd been meaning to have a game with the Indians since November last year but have been thwarted by various circumstances. It was a standard 200 point game with the Macedonians attacking and, while I was pretty rusty with the rules, it proved to be fun and quite close until the final turn. In the end the Indians prevailed due to some luck and the Macedonians became demoralised first.
