I haven't got a large game set-up yet... I've been playtesting for Decision, and since I finished that up, I haven't really played anything except Memoir '44 with my brother. He can't get enough of that game! It's still "new" to him.

I plan on playing Partizan!... a magazine game... sometime within the next few days. Work has been keeping me rather busy lately.

After my mother in law visits this weekend I think I'm going to get Death Ride Kursk on the table and see what that's all about. Either that or set up yet another La Bataille game.

In the VASSAL world I still have a game of The Supreme Commander going, although it's been on hold since late May, we're going to fire it up again in the next couple of weeks. It also looks as though billyboy and I will be firing up The Mighty Endeavor as I handle the Germans on the West front and the Russians in the East.

Clipping Der Weltkrieg.  Nothing's on the table at home right now - been suffering bad vertigo recently and it's kind of interrupted my gaming as staring down at a board for too long starts to make me nauseated.

Did manage to finish up No Retreat! The North African Front at the club, and we got VG's Civil War set up to come back to once I can get rid of the vertigo.

Sorry to hear about the vertigo! Der Weltkrieg's map won't help! hehe

I have Sixth Fleet and (not really a wargame) Circus Maximus on the table.

As noted in the American Civil War thread, I'm currently soloing Across 5 Aprils' Gettysburg scenario. I have to hurry up and finish it, however, because Dan and I have set next Thursday as the date for us to kick off our face-to-face match of the same game. I'm halfway through Day Two, so I should be able to get this done and reset before next Thursday. We already discussed sides, and he gave me my choice, and I chose the Rebs. I want to see if I can do better than Marse Robert!

Setting up a table for Operation Battleaxe: Wavell vs. Rommel, 1941, Courage Under Fire - The Battle of An Loc (HFD ed) and Back to Iraq (1st ed - I bought it to kit bash the counters and map but it looks kind of interesting as is...might have to give a scenario a go).

Blood and Roses. Working through the scenarios. I am eyeballing High Frontier Interstellar afterwards. Calandales vids have got me in the mood.

Playing killed my mood. Tongue

I've been following the discussion on the 3rd edition of this on the Yahoo Group for it.  It seems like total gibberish to me, but Herr Dr's First Minnesota Gaming Club did a session report on it that was fantastic, and made it at least sound like a game that would create just the sort of story I love, on a subject I find fascinating.  I'll be keeping an eye out for 3rd edition release for sure.

I think I'd love it - but it's too much to keep track of. At least with five solo players,
but probably across the line. Very frustrating.
