Oh yes I'd be game, and I too have no problem with being the Japanese, let me get past New Year, I still have family commitments till then, Maybe by next weekend (right after New Year) we can begin an online match using Forumini cards for the ships that are not out yet. Perhaps we can play it twice and give both of us a chance to play either side. Thank you for the challenge Okie.
