<t> Yes I downloaded all the needed BlueMax files....read over the files into the early morning hours.Nice set of rules....not overly complicated yet detailed enough to make a scenario interesting.One thing I found odd is that there is not much of a fuel allotment for the planes....seems you would ...

Thanks Aurelian....that is exactly what I would like to develop my ww1 air game into.....A table top game with model aircraft....Nice[:)]

Nate...private message sent ......thanks for getting my inspiration to work on the Waterloo game going again.....Now have two projects going......A WW1 airwar game just for fun....and a more serious project on the Battle of Waterloo...[:D]

<t> Hello Nate....no problem about hijacking,I thought perhaps I would be hearing from you.....My apologies for not getting in touch with you sooner....Actually I got so tired of working on it and I was literally getting nauseated and had to stop for a while.....Also my cat kept wrecking the game ...

Yes ....I will have to go to my local library fora while....it is good to at least have that option available....

<r> Thanks Joe......it is kind of cool.....You could certainly recreate any scenario you wanted to do.....there is lots of room for creativity...There are a lot of miniatures table top games played in a similar manner,using model aircraft instead of counters.I spent part of the weekend pouring over ...

<r> Decided to make a post before my internet service gets shut off....my winter heating bill has gone up a lot and the cost of keeping a car on the road has caused me to get behind on my internet bill....will have to do without for a few months.....With the coming 100th anniversary of WW1 coming up ...

I just got an adware infection in the last few days...have no idea where it came from.For me its just another strike in favor of shutting off the internet....Will have to reformat my pc again for the 1000th time...

<t> I have been playing a computerized 10 pin bowling game lately...."Bowling Evolution" it is called.Most of the bowling games I looked at were not very good but this one did get my attention.The game has a crashing bug which for me is remedied by turning off the sound.I find it enjoyable though ...

<r> I have never been much of a sailor but I do find the old sailing vessels and battles interesting.Have a very old aluminum canoe which is painted to look like birch bark.[:D]Use it for fishing mostly..I like variety when it comes to gaming and naval battles are fresh and new for me.I started ...

will do....thanks for the lead....I found some really nice plans for scale 18th and 19th century ships...started on a modelling project also.[:)]

<t> Checked out the youtube video of seadogs....looks kind of cool but I am not sure it is what I am looking for....wish there was a naval simulator similar to flight simulators where you are in the cockpit,only inside a ship...At any rate I took the plunge and purchased the Napoleonic Battleground ...

Thanks Orm....I thought Matrix would surely have something and I guess I missed it...

<r> Wondering if anyone knows of any 18th or 19th century naval computer games? Only one I can find is a computer version of Avalon Hill's Wooden Ships and Iron Men. Seems it is in DOS which I could play using DOS Box,but it is not really the game I want..I did find some free wooden ships table top ...

<t> On my fathers side I had an ancestor that lived in Poland before WW1...He was originally from Sweden but was granted land in Poland after fighting in the Franco Prussian war.He fled Poland right before the outbreak of WW1 and came to the United States..The town he lived in in Poland was leveled ...

<t> I kind of wish I would have got interested in the computer a little sooner than I did as I missed out some of the earliest computer wargames....I do have some of the early games by Sid Miers (not spelled right) Gettysburg, Antietam,Waterloo-Napoleons Last Battle....The graphics are kind of funny ...

Nice....a fellow Buckeye......I am from Salem....just south of Youngstown....I do not mind giving out my location.....I know lots of people will not.

Fantastic Treale.!! hope I am still gaming at 71....wish I was closer to you and could play a hex and counter game...tweezers and all.....

<t> I guess there are still many old time gamers around...I suppose we are not yet really old though we are working on it.I still am into using my imagination for graphics, even at 50 years old.If I really want extra graphics I get out my 1/32nd scale miniatures and have a huge battle. I will never ...

<t> Thanks for the tip.....I will check out Grogheads...........I actually do have a website I setup some years back for my gaming hobbies...I lost track of my password and am having difficulty getting the people to let me set a new one.....It was one of those freebie websites but it worked well for ...
