[Raellus]

I forgot gambling. Since ancient times, gambling, whether it be dice, or cards, or goading arachnids into mitiature gladiatorial contests, soldiers have enjoyed games of chance (or wagering on games of skill). That said, in 2000 or so, what would they be risking? Cash and military scrip wouldn't likely hold much value c.2000. Soldiers often gamble rations of the other militarily permissable vices- alchohol rations and cigarettes, most commonly. This once again raises the question of how common such vices would be.
