MOB rules!

FatherMurphy: older than dirt, twice as filthy.

Notice in these posts that there are quite a few older players here! A welcome change...adds a certain je ne sais quoi that I enjoy. I am reminded an interview with a survivor of the Indianappolis disaster...he made mention of the fact that alot of the really young sailors simply gave up and slipped beneath the waves, while the older guys, regardless of their wounds, kept on. In specific I remember, "once you've reached a certain age, I guess you have a vested interest in seeing it through to the end".

I just no longer have the rapid reaction times that an 18 year old has. So I have to play a bit smarter, that's all. If that means I have to break out the tentpegs and set up camp occasionally, so mote it be! LOL

Anyhoo, I live in Texas. Can't figure that one out, as I left this state in my youth vowing never to return. Well, actually...it was a promise to the judge. But things change, yes?

MOHAA/MOHAAS is the only First Person Shooter I have ever played. I have played wargames for over thirty years (anyone here remember the Avalon Hill Company?). I guess you could say I'm an amatuer historian, and know more about WWII than I do about my own family. Of course, if YOU knew my family, you'd understand that wasn't unnatural! LOL

Keep up the good work, MOB! Don't ever think that your efforts and expenses go unappreciated.

Yep...Panzerblitz was a good one.

I spent years of my life playing Squad Leader and Advanced Squad leader. Man...some of the historical modules used to take 24 hours to play a game, which was only one of 10 to 12 in the campaign. Used to do it in one sitting...of course, copious amounts of bud and beer MAY be why those games took so long...

Still have all that Squad Leader stuff...literally THOUSANDS of counters and many many maps...don't know why I hold onto it, but ya never know...we might end up sharing a room in the old folks home!

See ya out there, compadre antiguo!
