29) A good strong espresso is the best tactical advantage. It also removes the salty taste of crisps...

30) The venue that you chose to play in only serves instant coffee (and salty crisps)  |
Ah, another conossieur (oh gods, that MUST be spelled incorrectly) - I see a certian titan will be going to a good home.
Actually. my posting isn't Murphic at all, so I'll change it slightly:
(29) However good your strategy, this will never work as well as a strong espresso -then see (30).
Death to weak coffee!

31) Your opponent will always have the troops you are not prepared for.

When you manage to get a perfect position, surround the enemy and attack him from several angles at once, the enemy grunt unit is gonna beat all your veteran troops at once and trout them.

PS: happened to me in my last tourney on friday, when I charged in both flanks a badly positioned infantry unit (due to the efforts of a great eagle of mine with 2 heavy cavalry units, killed none and lost the combat duwe to outnumbering

Lost track of the numbers...
No matter how careful you position them, your Grots will always outlive your Nobs and tanks by many turns.
Your key elite unit is always left at the back of the draw many miles away when the battle is being set up.
