Your introduction to consim gaming:: While out Christmas shopping as a young child in 1975, saw War at Sea in a hobby store. Spent my carefully saved gift money ($5) on it. So got started playing Avalon Hill games, my friend that I got to playing games then started buying SPI stuff.

P.S. I'm trying to gather all the gamers in uniform to one place, so put out the word and we'll all gather at my place.

What game(s) are you currently playing (solitaire, FTF, PBEM, etc.) or wish to play next?: I'm stuck in this continual cycle of ASL playtesting, and I want to play Duel im Dunkeln next

How big is your game collection?: seven bookcases full, some stacked on top, and about a dozen scattered around the house being perused, opened.

Your local game club(s) and/or where you reside (let's network!): Kansas City Irregular ASLers, and my own informal club, that doesn't have a name. We just get together and game.

Personal Interests (favorite activities, movies, shows, books, music, etc.): Legal Novels, military history magazines, guns, horseback riding

Scott and his wife own the B&B here in Bonnots Mill. I have tried to engage him on the topic of gaming, but he didn't seem real interested in getting anything going. I'm a board guy and he's a minis guy - maybe he assumed that I wouldn't be interested. I've gamed minis a few times at a friend's house, and it's fun but I wouldn't want to start buying stuff.

What did you play with him?

The Westin in Columbus is the nicest hotel in Columbus in my opinion. I'm certain it has a history; I just don't know what it is. It is one of the few hotels near the convention center where Origins is held that does NOT sell out. I think b.c it is "too nice" (?)
The Westin also does not hold a block of rooms for Origins guests b.c I think they also don't want to "attract THAT TYPE of guest", if you follow my drift.

I'll talk in BIG LETTERS since you're Infantry....
My AKO (ONCE AGAIN) is: Kathryn.A.Smith@us.army.mil
Have you made your hotel reservations at the Westin Columbus?
