Profile Information
- Your introduction to consim gaming:
- I discovered Squad Leader in the early 1980s and it all sort of expanded from there.
- Your favorite game(s):
- I will play almost anything, however given a choice I prefer tactical games.
- What game(s) are you currently playing (solitaire, FTF, PBEM, etc.) or wish to play next?
- The number of games I would like to play next always exceed the time I have to play them, but I would really like to play Napoleon's Triumph.
- What game(s) have you played recently?
- Recently being defined as the past 6 months and not counting solitaire, I have been playing a lot of Twilight Struggle and Conflict of Heroes.
- In general, how much time do you spend gaming?
- Not enough
- How big is your game collection?
- Currently about 50 games
- Your local game club(s) and/or where you reside (let's network!)
- I am not currently a member of a local game club. I live in sunny Scottsdale, Arizona.
- About Me
- I have lived in The Netherlands, Switzerland, New York City, Iowa, South Korea, and Kansas, and now hang my hat in Arizona, picking up a few languages and esoteric skills along the way. I served 6 years on active duty as an armor officer in the United States Army.
- Personal Interests (favorite activities, movies, shows, books, music, etc.)
- My hobbies include wargaming (duh), building scale models, and robotics. I almost exclusively read science fiction and military history. I'll watch anything even vaguely related to the SF genre, other stuff just tends to accumulate on my TiVo until I delete it without watching it. My favorite non-SF movie is "The Usual Suspects". My favorite mini-series is "I, Claudius".

Re: Troop Quality - I've reversed my position on the issue of whether or not support units affect "troop quality". We are now also playing that any unit with a parenthesized defense strength does NOT factor in to the troop quality calculation. As ...
As has been case for most of the 35 yrs since 14 - almost nothing. Have run hundreds of Diplomacy games ftf & online as can always get players. Have run acquire & executive decision as well online. Adapted Fighting Sail & Flying Circus for non-war...

Just mainly old Spis & Wargamer(3w)s I had before I moved to Vegas 4.5 yrs ago. Most I never got to play back in Mass & likely will not here either. Did get the SSI Gettysburg so can play solitaire along with Battles of Nap. 13 The Colonies Revolt...
Ha. My mother-in-law calls them "pile games..."
This is a cdg based on the game Twilight Struggle. It also has a battlecard system similar to We the People. It's a free game that you can download here: http://social.consimworld.com/profiles/blogs/final-1989-rules-cards-and-map
Please share more about your game design, description, etc. -- nice job on the cover.
Ooooooooooooooooooo.... Looks good!
I also say Armistice Day. It's a day of peace. God bless all our veterans. Thanks for your service!
My guess is that 34R1 overrides the parent section 33L4. 34R1 states "A friendly naval unit may attempt to detect any enemy naval unit that is within its Surface (or Sub-Surface, for submarines) Detection Range. The player announces the detection ...

My November trip fast approacheth! Mary and I will be leaving here on 1 Nov; arrive Mesa, AZ approx. Thurs., 5 Nov; we leave via plane on Sunday, 15 Nov. I really hope we get a chance to visit/game; what is your schedule like?

Looks like Mary & I will be in AZ mid-November; probably a week to 10 days. It would sure be cool to hook up with you. I know it's a long way off, but you know how the Army can be - the further out you plan your leave, the better!
Peace,
~Jim
