13/06/2005 17:01 S2 special adjusted so it can also create exterior walls.

10/01/2006 07:25 Rules regarding blocked players removed, and instead replaced by an augmentation to the O code allowing any piece containing the O code to be created on a wall square which will immediately be changed into an empty square. Note that this only works on interior walls.
