56 this summer, and started with the original Gettysburg. We literally wore that game out waiting for D-Day
and U-Boat to arrive.

Ah, I see there are a few of us old timers here. Only Svar is older than me of those posted so far.

Gettysburg, Tactics II (always wondered if there was a Tactics I), Afrika Corp, Stalingrad, U-Boat...

Wasn't as involved in wargaming in the '70s (couldn't find opponents) but when I got my Apple II I was right back in the swing of things.

[Onime No Kyo]

I'm amazed that I'm not the youngest guy here. [X(]

I'm 24. Started wargaming with AHs Squad Leader when I was 14 or so. Had all the expansion packs too. My first computer sim was a space game called Lightspeed on 5" floppy on my 286 DX. The first war sim was KOEIs PTO on Sega Genesis.

BTW....good to see that all you old farts arnt just gathering dust. [:D]

I completely forgot about PTO! Great game. I still have it, along with my Genisis (gathering dust in a cupboard). [:D]

fingers off box before leaving. Several weeks of paperboy money later it was
back in my hot little hands.

Got started in early 70's with Panzerblitz then just about every AH game there was. In high school graduated to just about every SPI game there was. Had >60 board games at one time. Have the full magazine series put out by Ballantine's; The History of the Second World War. Read those every Saturday at lunch. First computer wargame was Harpoon.
