Profile Information
- Your introduction to consim gaming:
- Many years ago I was given an Avalon Hill game as a gift... two years later i was play-testing SPI game on Friday nights in NYC. Now, after a few decadews working and raising a family i am returning to the hobby (way of life)
- Your favorite game(s):
- I haven't played them yet --- but Polis, For the People, and a few of the other newish titles look fascinating.
In decades past I enjoyed Frederick the Great.
- What game(s) are you currently playing (solitaire, FTF, PBEM, etc.) or wish to play next?
- I want to play the games above ... Churchill, Labyrinth, Twilight Struggle, Fire in the Lake... and when time permits some of the old fashioned battle games
- What game(s) have you played recently?
- N/A
- In general, how much time do you spend gaming?
- I have time to play once a week -- sometimes more
- How big is your game collection?

- About Me
- As a first step i teach at the marine Corps War College and want to add simulations to the classroom instruction. I am hoping to find someone patient enough to show me the ins-and-outs of the above games so that I can integrate them into the classroom...
After that I am looking for a group that might enjoy getting together on a semi-regular basis for some fun gaming (I would hope you are the type that would not mind having a football game on in the background.)
- Personal Interests (favorite activities, movies, shows, books, music, etc.)
- I work a lot -- teaching and writing.
Spare time right now is spent reading.... and a movie as often as a good one comes to the local theaters.

Looking for Opponents - Northern VA
Greetings,
I am looking for wargamers in my local area (Burke VA) and am sending notes to a few people who appear close on CONSIM.
I used to play wargames a lot in the glory days of SPI-Avalon Hill… but work and family forced me to put further playing off for a few decades (57 years old now). I am looking for two things.
- I teach at the Marine Corps War College and I plan to use a few games in the classroom. I need some folks who will help explain some of…

Good Day,
How is everything with you, I picked interest on you after going through your short profile and deemed it necessary to write you immediately. I have something very vital to disclose to you, but I found it difficult to express myself here, since it's a public site.Could you please get back to me on:(mr.frankkwabena20@gmail.com ) for the full details.
Have a nice day
Thanks God bless.
Frank.
Hi Jim, Would enjoy chatting by email or phone to see if we might find a game for face to face play. I live in Vienna, am, single, retired (74). 703-242-8840 or johnloth@verizon.net. I live alone so can easily leave a game set up as needed.
