8c-beacheadM - another of the mars maps... using the standard tiles for now. 250 by 250 - not as convoluted as the memonia map, but still needs your attention to detail.

- Those pics remind me of the Navajo art "iikaah" (ee-EE-kah) or often called Sandpainting. The Navajo word actually
translates into English as - “The place where the gods come and go.” Now that also has something of a serendipity** to
it as the planet Mars is named after the Roman warrior god - the most respected of the military gods that were worshiped
by the Roman legions.

- Very interesting asymmetry. Look forward to battling on.

** A lovely word "Serendipity"...coined by English author Horace Walpole. In a letter of January 28, 1754, Walpole says that "this discovery, indeed, is almost of that kind which I call Serendipity, a very expressive word." Walpole formed the word on an old name
for the country Sri Lanka, Serendip. He said in another letter that this name was part of the title of "a silly fairy tale, called The Three Princes of Serendip: As their highnesses traveled, they were always making discoveries, by accidents and sagacity, of things which they were not in quest of...."

- I'll post more details over the weekend but here's what I can mention now..

- Beach head loads and I've run enough to see a few spots where Truck Ranging on Oil is less
than ranging on the nearest access point so they get stuck.... I'll make some screens later. Other
than that it looks and functions very good - just being real brief till the weekend.

- Arelicofmars.... I have not been able to load. It asserts and doesn't like my structurelimits hack code ....
first map I've encountered that has that issue. It's on my end so I'm especially curious to figure out why. May I
have a gander at your .LND file - it may help figure it out ? Thanks.

- Regards, whipper.
