Green Edition
The Green Edition has everything the Standard
edition has with the exception of the
printed rules, player mats and box. We can probably not deliver such
items to you as efficiently as you can for yourself. Which you will
want to do anyway, just to ensure you always have the latest
rules. Indeed you may not even want printed rules at all if you are
able to read them on a mobile device. If this seems strange, think
about it. All "paper" is delivered on-line now: newspapers, magazines,
computer manuals, insurance, banking and tax information, etc. This
isn't a games problem; it's a paper problem. Should games really be
any different? Let's all save a tree.
