Profile Information
- Your introduction to consim gaming:
- I came to the hobby in 1975 while in Graduate School at the University of Illinois. My first game was GDW's Waterloo game. This was followed by John Hill's "Kasserine Pass". From there I was hooked. I acquired my first game while reading John Keagan's "Face of Battle" because I was not satisfied with the maps in the book.
- Your favorite game(s):
- For me, systems (no particular order);
1. OCS (MMP)
2. Great Battles of History (GMT)
3. Line of Battle (MMP)
4. Great Campaigns of the American Civil War (AH/MMP)
5. Napoleon at Bay (OSG)
6. La Bataille (Clash of Arms)
7. SCS (MMP)
8. Wacht Am Rhein / Korsun Pocket (SPI, DG & PWG)

And I am totally enthused about "Case Blue". What a Great Game !! Citino goes very well with it (except for sending me on side-trips to North Africa). And I have also run into the 'void' of the Caucasus Campaign -as far as detailed historical accounts go. I do have Gen. A.A. Grechko 's "Bitva za Kavkaz" on order (Copyrighted 1967) which is supposed to be pretty good, lite on the usual Triumph of Socialism Propaganda and heavy on actual facts. Grechko was Army Commander for 21st and 64th armies.
I'm putting together a bunch of second hand stuff, like Liddell- Hart, but it is really a neglected theatre. I am also looking for some of the German memoirs that cover it.
I MUST play OCS "Case Blue" with All the maps set up. I simply cant do it justice with the space available to me.
