I like the paradrop in the Kuban to cut off the Russians in the Crimea!

Looks like Leningrad may be ripe to fall to the Axis - wow

It is a good thing that Joe does not read these forum posts or he might heed your advice on the Katyushas. . . ;)

Sometimes you need to be slapped around to learn properly as to your mistakes.

Right Mark?  I've got one word for you: Dan!

I also noticed no Soviet leader in Leningrad - that could be a problem managing reinforcements... :-[

Game point: Big stacks of front line units are not that effective without leaders to manage them.

I think we are ready for a rematch whenever Yoper's Detroit crew gets enough guts to try another run at us - but we think they are too frightened to commit to a rematch with the advanced game. . .

I don't win that often, so I have to enjoy it when I can. ;)

I would love to come out, but I will never be able to get Dan to come along and Eric just got back into a job after being out of work for six months.

I finally told my wife about going to WBC for ten days and I keep hearing about it.   ::)

I would love to make it out like October some time for a weekend of fun and carnage.  Mark, when are you come back to the States for good?

Is she happy for you?

Happy???????!!!!???????!!!!

She talks about how spoiled I am! 

She resents my decision to do such a thing.  But she knows that I am going to do it anyway.

In the end, she knows that I won't make a decision that is over the top- that would totally ruin our situation, our life.  But she does feel that this is a bit much.

I will probably have to either give up the event now that I have moved it to a Precon, or still run the event but give up a later part of the convention to continue to do it so.  Seven days in years' past was more than she wanted, but that was still within the realm of credibility. 

I was also going to Origins in those years.  Now I am giving up Origins to make the full ten days of WBC.

Choices have to be made.

Do you think it would ever be a good idea for us to bring this game to WBC and play it as some sort of demo or something?
