On one of the tables in the recreation room, Ivo had moved aside the three dimensional chess set and set up a board game. There were several decks of cards, a large number of small cardboard tokens with different colors and numbers on them, and a map that seemed to be of Earth.

Ivo flipped a switch on the console, and the computer terminal began playing its “thinking” noises. Two seconds later it said =/\=Program ready,=/\= in its highly mechanical female voice.

“Execute,” Ivo commanded simply.

=/\= Choose side. =/\=
“United States of America.”

The computer made more noises, and the monitor of the console started displaying 15 cards, 8 of them on the top of the screen and 7 on the bottom. The cards on the bottom and one of the cards on the top were face up, the rest were face down.

=/\= I place four influence in East Germany, four influence in Poland, one influence in Yugoslavia. =/\=

Ivo moved some of the cardboard tokens around accordingly, and then looked at the screen before deciding what his response to that would be…

– Ivo Cerny, XO/CSO

Amber couldn’t sleep. Coming into the common room, she spied the XO. Not having been formally introduced, she figured the informal atmosphere would be better. She stepped wide to not sneak up on him and came up on the side across from where he was playing. “Evening, Sir. May I ask what you’re playing? I don’t recognize it.” She smiled. “Though if I am intruding, you can certainly tell me to scram.” She laughed and looked at the layout. Other than the Earth board, she had no idea what he was doing.
