About the book

The book described some of the events which shaped wartime Bosnia. It focuses primarily on wartime Sarajevo in 1993 and what happened within the Bosnian government and army. The book talks specifically about Operations "Trebević" I, II and III.

gollark: How's that?

gollark: Hold on.

gollark: How about:Create a new section "Bees" %bees.Create a rule "Bee utilization part 1" (%bees-1) in %bees:> If bees are deployed, they may be used against any player, if a Bee Poll indicating this target player is passed. The deployment status of bees is to be considered part of the Game State. If bees are used on a player they lose 1 point. Bees are not considered a resource and if they are deployed an unlimited amount of bee-related actions may be taken.Create a rule "Bee Poll" (%bee-poll) in %polls:> A Bee Poll is required to authorize bees to perform actions, as described in %bees. The default allowed reactions for a Bee Poll are 👍 (representing a vote for) and 👎 (representing a vote against). Bee Polls may be ended if they have existed for 12 hours, rather than the usual 24. When a Bee Poll ends, if there are more votes for the Bee Poll than against it, the Bee Poll passes. Players are permitted to use multiple reactions on a Bee Poll.

gollark: What? I'm going to just cancel the existing proposal and make one creating the bee section and bee rules section 1.

gollark: Wait, maybe it should create a bee *section* too.
