Hey guys, so I just noticed that in one of my trench quad games, our last opponents last two regions are across the english channel ( which resets to neutral each round ) Any advice? The map is Third crusade.

Yes; attack them, take their regions and end the game.

In trench you can pass thru killer neutral territories.

That non-obvious feature is now finally mentioned in the main rules under 'Game Options'.
Progress is slowly being made!

Yes, so "non-obvious" (suggest: subtle). I also totally believed the game would make it impossible to finish trench games on maps with killer neutrals but would allow people to play them for several years. That's why there are so many ongoing games of trench on Das Schloss, Third Crusade and many other maps. They simply will never finish!

It was always completely obvious/intuitive to me...funny.

Many knew about it before it was in the rules, but that is nothing to be proud of... Like insider trading, all that did was unfairly slope the playing field.

Hey, llama show everybody that trick I taught you.
You know the one where you hit the apostrophe key with your paw TWICE (!) to make a double quotation mark.
He just learned that folks! Now who wants to feed him some alfalfa pellets?
