Any decent PC-based hex-wargame?
You'v got OPERATION BARBAROSSA published by Matrix. It is inspired by Panzer General. It is a turn based, Hex based, simple, attractive and challenging enough for a beginner. I think it is a good sta…

Any decent PC-based hex-wargame?
Well there is a web site that offers Hex game computer games and encompass most of the best company out there. It might help to have an overall point of view from one website: http://yhst-1200024677…

Letting Go: Games We've Parted Ways With
There was a game I really enjoyed, "The War College" from Gametek dating back to 1995. "The simulation's core principle is a departure from traditional turn-based, hex tile mechanics towards real-tim…

Wow!...Kool!
Ho, that's awsome!...What is the cylinder looking like thing on the top of the cupola?...A camera?...An antenna?...
Is the shortness of the blades to compensate for a high RPM of the engine?...

Whats your status on gaming?

- Normandie / Normandy 44' is great. I'll be more than pleased to play a game or two on a few of the small/medium games...Hell, even the full battle sounds like a blast.

- I wouldn't mind playing Moscow 41' - Haven't played a pbem of that in ages.
I have almost every one of those games, do you have Normandy 44' from HPS?
And yes, I do have some board-games...some...a few...a lot. heh.

- I have a great deal of HPS sims, and Matrix games. Is there anything in particular that you would like to play? I also play Combat missions - with a club - FGM...we hold tourneys and such.
Give me some details.

- AH I meant your war room as well, quite impressive. I need to work on mine.
As for Hex games, I still play a wide variety...Speaking of PC related Hex Games, have you tried the HPS PzCampaigns series? I am knee deep in that genre of divisional play.

- Gunny,
15 years, thats friggen awesome. Do you own Game Towne? If so...I used to frequent that/your store for many years actually...Which would be a trip if that was the case.
I stay in SD on the weekends these days (I am originally from Tierrasanta) with my gal, but during the work week I am in the LA area.
Funny you asked, I want to pick up tournament play again. Something I used to do for many years. So to answer your question, yes.
I have been sitting and waiting for something to actually motivate me since I play a lot of Hex boardgames [by myself], apparently not many in my area participate in them...So finding a group or getting the time in during a convention or club/tourney is something I'd like to do.

- Oh man! Thought so! At least my memory is good.
I have been good, just getting back to my hex-gaming roots, been a long time lurker on this site and noticed some people I have gamed with in SD, and in LA.
Hope things are going well with you, quite the collection of games you have!

Are you the same GunnyHighway from SimHQ? If so, it is I, Enven from the ArmA I-II days.

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…
Yes, this was a creepy ad. I looked at the Audi website to compare this car to others. Oddly enough, you are unable to compare it to the VW SportWagon TDI, which gets exactly the same mileage.
Lately, I've been mad at Newsweek, due to issues of bias that are beyond the realm of this group. However, tonight I read a very good article on its web site, regarding layoffs.I was once in a meeting at a former employer, and we were going over th…
I second the motion. May his service in the defense to his country be what matters in the hereafter.
The game on the development table now is Rob Markham's Saratoga. This game covers the decisive battle of the American Revolution tactically, with two scenarios. One addresses the Battle of Freeman's Farm on September 19, and the other is on the Ba…
I'll just say "R.I.P.", lest I stray into the political realm.
