You have to absolutely LOVE "
The Honey Do List", "TG"
CINCLANTHOME keeps mine to a bear minimum, because I'm such a nice guy, mostly deal with over the phone etc. type issues.
If it dealt with tanks/combined arms well, I think I pretty much covered that with just about every board game that
SPI & Avalon Games (And a couple of "
off" brand ones as well.) made from the early 70's until they were basically no more. But it all started with
Tactics II the father of them all. From there it was onto Avalon Hills
Blitzkrieg. The game that got me hooked on modern warfare and thus responsible for all of you to "suffer"
with me were in reality games from SPI
Sixth Fleet (And I became a Submariner!) and "
the time is 0800 hrs., Summer 1975" yes,
Red Star/White Star man I loved that game it was so "
technical" for a board game, plus you had blank die cuts to allow you to introduce new equipment for all the forces in the game.
That's where the research all started.
SSI would introduce me to my first PC games right from the start in 1995 with of course
STEEL PANTHERS (Played up to III.) I never had an interest for whatever reason to pursue the rest (I think ten versions now.) mostly because I was under the water but it seemed
MATRIX Games had some issues when they took over the series.
Now I'm here and am as happy playing our games as I was playing my Avalon Hill and
SPI, you'll just have to trust me when I say
that means a lot to me personally.
THANK YOU ALL!

Hey did they extend to edit time on posts? Thought it was extended to only an hour or two ~3-4 years ago. Not complaining mind you!!
