I'll tell you what Strum, we know if I start with all my men in the village, you'll be demolished, but if I have to hold position for a turn, you'll waste me with mortars, so I propose a compromise.
I will start in the bottom, but I will extend the buildings so they cut across a lot more of the map. However, I'd like the first post to become neutral, as neither of us would really be able to do anything, as I wouldn't be able to move on to an attack, and you wouldn't know where I am to barrage.
