I have come here to play Blue Max.

Is there anything I need to know before I start?

1. Join games at your manageable times. So if you will on vacation for a couple of weeks. It is wise not to join games with automove of 3,5,7 days.

2. Join leagues only after you have experienced of around 30-50 games. Online version is a bit different of the boardgame one. I am not meaning only the rules but the people/culture/style. Leagues game is for more serious players, it is wise you observate others playing instead of joining one. Joining 3-5 leagues may result that you have hundred games to finish! http://youplay.it/play/tn_Rules.asp
