Please pick an answer that the District Attorney can't use!

Last I saw on the Forum in Consimworld, some copies have been spotted on doorstoops in Seattle, even in Sushi restaurants, while the rest of us hold our collective breaths...sigh.

I picked up PG Desert Rats, then went home and saw that I have two Afrika Corps on the shelf! I think the second is from a 'black box' sale. I also got the Malaya game, pricey, but looks really cool and an interesting topic to me. For my freebie (but two get one) I got Queen of the Celts - with the good cover. Two hours later I went back and bought the GWAS Zeppelins book that has rules, articles, and counters.

Oh, I also played defiant russia, which is as advertised, basic rules and fast playing.

At 8:23am on February 28th, 2008, Ron Wuerth said…: Thanks for the invite Rich! This looks like it will be a good place, still have to figure it out though, never was a big "myspace" fan, but I can deal with that sort of thing amongst a bunch of fellow consimers. Now to find a suitable pic.
