Reading Harold Coyle's "Team Yankee".
I am a newbie at Vassal and I am (PST). I have only played Command and Colors Ancients on Vassal. Looking to play Bastogne (SCS) on Vassal.
Anyone else have difficulty finding opponents available for online play (e.g., Vassal) during Pacific Time hours? I know I do. I though a group to help identify people who fit that profile might be useful to others.
Black friday sale at MMP. I purchased Guadalajara (16) and Rock of the Marne(20). Anybody else get anything?

- I've considered it but I'm usually busy on weekends. Once my wife retires and we spend more time on weekdays, I may have weekends more free. Or they may be less free.

Audi demonstrates that tyranny still isn't funny.
Read "The Last Duel" by Eric Jager. Subtitled: A True Story of Crime, Scandal, and Trial by Combat in Medieval France. Could be a Hollywood movie??? Good.

"I doubt if anyone found it funny in the least."
Yes, disturbing... like reading '1984'
Are they the same car (basically)? VW owns Audi.
I'd like to personally invite you all to read a full preview (13Mb PDF link) of our new fast-playing (30 minutes) tactical WWII card game, Frontline General: Spearpoint 1943 in our newsletter. I'm happy to announce that we've just passed the 200 p…
Thanks!
Count me in Jim!
Didn't we just have a special election.....God we get to go through THAT yet again....
I've found the internal debate (i.e. the debate in my head) has been to either play a lot of games poorly or a few games well. I prefer the latter model, but then you must, as you say, find that set of holy grail games that one chooses to become goo…
Chris:
Really - that's a good point. I wonder if the Audi folks realized the message they were sending out with this one. I doubt if anyone found it funny in the least.

The fact that Carolyn like KAtie, married men like us tells us they are good and special people.
My wife Carolyn teaches special ed. I wouldn't trade jobs with her for any amount of money. Very difficult work indeed.
Group to discuss boardgame Map Making.
Where amateur and published map makers can discuss and assist each other with techniques and methods used in creating boardgame maps.
(not a group for arguments about what map style or software app is best)
I've recently printed and built "To the Last Man." I was able to play the game and get an idea of its look and feel beforehand thanks to BGG and Cyberboard. It's an excellent game, one well worth the bother.
I _hope_ it is just by unfortunate accid…
