Ooh, ohh, I want! I want! Er, I mean, I would appreciate a copy of
your campaign rules, if you get a chance to type them out.

How is this done? Do you figure out how much each stand/unit is

working on a campaign system for another game (Silent Death) and I want
to steal ideas. :) Hey, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.
