Re: Debain package for Crimson Fields

Sorry... I'll rephrase a bit, yeah in History line the moving and
attackin was split from the begining, and i know its an old system.  I
was more questioning in the spirit of open source would there be any
problems with me perhaps taking a fork of crimson fields to try and
create such an interface.  If it was ok with yourselves, do you think
such a thing would be possible ? or am I dreaming :)

I would also love to do a roman theam set for Crimson fields too,
Crimson fields is great, but I would love to send legionairs, catapults
and roman gallons against each other :)  ok... maybe I just have an over
active imagination :) especially since I can't even compile 0.4.2, so I
might be jumping the gun a bit :)
