I'd rather kick in a few bucks here than give BGG a dime  Angry

I could be wrong but I think Enricos and my posts on BGG ( with the help of Michael (the Troll) Dorass)  may have brought a few gawkers over from BGG. I hope they like what they see and stay.

OCS. You cannot move and attack with all of your units every turn (far from it). To launch offensives you must first build up. You get the real feel of operational combat. A flurry of intense action followed by pauses. You must set up a supply network. While artillery use is maybe its weak point it really shines overall. The designers made a conscious decision not to differentiate between supply types (ammo, gas) for playability reasons.

I basically only engage with Judd's monthly 'Wargames on Your Table' these days...and AWOL

Heya Steve! Good to see you over here.

Ditto from me. Steve, you're instantly recognizable by the spider avatars!




Same. Happy to see so many familiar faces.



Thanks for the welcome guys!

I loved the hell out of Twilight in the East, but have completely failed to wrap my brain around OaO.

I've just about completed my DW collection.  I'll probably pick up the West Front and campaign module this fall to finish it off.  Now to play it... Wink

Twilight in the East definitely was more enjoyable than OaO

I'm a bit surprised with Racier. 'Case Yellow' also drew quite a bit of flak.

As did Stalins War and Barbarossa to Berlin

I miss the other parts of the site though.

Wish we could get more non-wargamers on board.

I'm starting to think that maybe wargamers are just more chatty in general. I mean, just how much can one say about 'Caylus'?

How about Circus Train? I hear its a real clown show!  Cool

Just checked out Bill and Enrico's latest posts on the 'World War One Gamers' thread, and of course they were followed by a typically obnoxious self-righteous post from good ol' Mickey Dee. Yeah, I don't miss it.

If anything ever deserved the red X bomb its this post of Doroshes

Got my order in for Beyond the Rhine. Hopefully see Korea (already have the 1 edition) in another month or so. I'd guess late 2015 early 2016 for BtR.

I still have to get to those 1914 games. Was a little turned off by all of the rule updates they were still going on about when the game first came out.

How does it play out of the box, Bill?

I've been playing awhile and we're on turn 6. Still unsure how I feel about it. I definitely have more fun with Der Weltkrieg.

I just finished doing a 7 day ban. I can do 7 days standing on my head! Honestly didn't miss BGG. Home of trolls, sockpuppets and the like. Enough scumbags over there that suck all of the enjoyment out of the place. Lets not forget Triple M Moron. It was great back in the day.
