To the Marshal that wrote the above you might be happier playing a game such 
as Dictators and Tyrants.  Get real.  My Marshal is responsible for my 
character(s) when I play the campain HE/SHE is running and when I am Marshal 
I am responsible for HIS/HER character(s) when they are playing the campaign 
I am running period.  Whatever else they pursue is of no intrest to me 
unless they want to include it in the campaign(and you can never have enough 
ideas). If they ask your opinion or ruling by all means give it to them but 
otherwise butt out.
