- About Me
- I was born and raised in California. I moved to Chicago at the end of 2006. I was exposed to wargaming about 15 years ago whilst in college, but I haven't touched a board wargame since that time. Recently I was feeling burned out on PC gaming and thought this would be a good opportunity to try and start back up with face-to-face wargaming (or other games that may interest me).
