Looking for....

<t> Hi y'all. I need a few suggestions from the community concerning a game. Essentially, I'm looking for a John Tiller campaign Series style of game, but set in the modern context. ( 1950's to present day, if possible) It must have set-piece scenarios and fantasy settings as seen from the Campaign ...

RE: Help a newbie out!

<r> Hi Joel, and welcome aboard. Having been part of the Beta testing team for Distant Worlds, I can attest to the excellence of the game. Numerous discussions and fine tunings have made this a cut above the rest. Do bear in mind, owever, that it could get fairly large and complex. Still, a good cho...

RE: What was the first wargames you played?

<t> First board game was Diplomacy, played in my High School Geo-Games Club. We were paired up with a teacher, and despite such niceties as disciplined meetings and such, things got out of control still, like when I followed the German delegate to the bathroom, then stole his briefcase from under th...

<r> Hi, quite a few left over after the original exodus down highway 401 to Toronto in the 70's.<br/> By and large, English is tolerated in Quebec.

RE: Distant Worlds Now Available for Purchase!

<t> Nice response, well done to all. Btw, if you consider the price steep, frankly, you should have seen the work and dedication the designer put in to this product. Holy Smokes, the man ( and team) worked their asses off. <br/> I can attest personally, it is a fine, well thought-out 4x space-based ...

And yet, the rest of the colonies stand silent, as if waiting for the outcome...What of Canada? Australia? NZee? or even India? The King's British WAS exported to areas beyond the USA's.
