I'm currently trying to understand PRECISELY what it is I'm missing.

Spring is just around the corner. It will all be better then. This winter has largely sucked. [:)]

MrsWargamer I think sometimes you spend too much time analysing and not enough just playing and enjoying.:)


Yeah, and put Dancing Queen by ABBA on continous loop in the background. It'll all be good. [8D]
Actually Waterloo and Fernando are more military-themed. [:)]

And Sweden gave us the Bofors gun. What does ABBA begin and end with? AA! [:D]

I'm currently trying to understand PRECISELY what it is I'm missing.
You are missing the Brothers in Arms album by Dire Straits.
You are also missing a couple of grand strategy games: WWII: ETO, and WIF.
However, what really is really missing is someone who is as into gaming as you are. The game is important. The music helps. But what is needed is someone to share the joy of finding out what can be done with those counters that create the magic. Someone that helps create that epic situation.

That is in my humble opinion anyway. Maybe I am just putting out what I am missing.

With todays online communication one can find a player to share the joy of gaming with. It is not the same as face to face gaming but it can get close to it. And not all games are suited for it. I think it helps if one does not only communicate about the game but other things as well.

I eventually tossed the fifteen or so wargames
I had into the dumpster.


As a result of that heinous act, you were never worthy of owning them in the first place! [:-]
