hello!

Post by motrek »

I've been playing wargames for over thirty
years now, and just want to say what an
utter joy it has been to discover SPWAW!
I have long been frustrated that I could
never get SP3 to run on my machine, but that
is all obviated with SPWAW. No, I can't
do modern scenarios, but I figure in time
SP modern battles will be available.

SPWAW is the game Squad Leader aspired
to be about twenty years ago, and it
captures so much of the fun of table
top gaming with micro-armor, but without
all the work and trouble.

What's further impressive is the commitment
of Matrix and many others on this list
to continually upgrage and improve the
game. Kudos to you all; I hope I can
eventually be of help and service to that
end.

I've only had the game a couple of weeks
now, so let me get up to speed with it.
Before long, I hope to jump into league
play or via the net.

Cheers,
motrek

Allow us to extend the hand of wargaming fellowship to you Motrek!

We are glad to have you with us. I'm also delighted that you have found so much pleasure in SPWAW.

That was our intent.

And now, having as a Windows game has given more longevity (to my personal delight). This time Microsoft does not have the last word Image

This is a great forum. You will find here the friendliest, most helpful and extremely knowledgeable people on ANY forum, ANYWHERE.

They've learned and grown with us through the many stages of the game and a lot of them know more than I do about it. Image

We are at your orders sir. Be sure you have the latest versions and when you get squared away, check the Game Depot, the Map Depot and also the various supports sites for the game.

Good hunting...Wild Bill

Age shall not weary them nor the years condem
At the going down of the sun & in the morning
we will remember them.
