Round table

to Wlk777 - don't take it literally that the rules must state that the alliance is specifically "and"...

I don't take it that way either; you've built an entire (and, in my opinion, incorrect) theory around it. And I've already explained in the post above why, in the case of resistance, you can comply with both the letter and the spirit of the rules, and Britva also correctly added to that.
