Yes I did, enjoyed it too.
Raises hand. Actually, that was the first AH board game I bought. Loved it. SL came second.

Didn't Midway have the rule where you had to tell your opponent where your cvtf was located after you had hit him w/ an airstrike? If it was, it was one of the dumbest rules that I've ever seen in a war game. Still enjoyed the game tho.

Turning my head right to look at the "game shelf" in my hobby room, I just got struck with how many AH games I have. Didn't think they were so many.

I have; Jutland, Battle of the Bulge, Flat top, Victory in the Pacific, Submarine, The Longest Day, Wooden Ships & Iron Men, Panzerblitz, Panzerleader, Fortress Europa, Panzergruppe Guderian, Civilization, Third Reich, Diplomacy, Up Front, Kingmaker, Kremlin, Titan, Hitlers War, History of the World, Age of Renissance, Merchant of Venus, Rail Baron, Acquire, B-17, TV- Wars, Titan:The Arena and finally 1830.

Many hours have been spent playing those games ... love them ... fond memories of the youth "game holidays" & "game weekends" [:)]

ETA; I don't have Midway though [;)]

War at Sea was good as well, especially when you had the General article that combined it with VitP.

Lost almost all of my AH games when my Mom 'cleaned' my room the first day after I went to college.

I'm stuck with no-one to play against. So all I've got are Silent War and B-29, games I can play on my own like any self-respecting lonely gamer [:D]
