Okay, unless more beginners want to play, we have a 6 player team, with 3 beginners, 2 experts and @belouski, who may or may not be somewhere in between.
I’ll wait a bit longer to see if anyone else comes over.
Looking at the initial 3 nations, I would argue that whoever is our pretender should probably go with scales. That will probably be the most helpful.
We will need to pick a pretender though.
