I can't believe I missed Guadalcanal. Now I'm really ticked. I played all the others though. I remember buying USAAF on my first day back on a 30 day leave from germany. Had to read the rules for 30 days. Great games.

I played most of the games listed here way back when. I would love to be able to play NA'86 again, in a more modern package. I just hated Iceland after playing that game. [:)]

My first computer was an Atari 800XL - $700 for a 74K floppy drive so I could play USAAF and Kamfgruppe.

It was well needed my main competition for board games had joined the forces and left town.

Man we have come a long way in 20 years.

Oh Please Yes... Have that too, I always have wished it had been ported over to PC, even improved...

However I found Space Empires III Which kind of substituted... but If IG were to be remade for Windows I'd sure buy it, a windows version probably would be a much bigger galaxy too, maybe emcompassing say milkyway Galaxy through of course not every star [:D][:D]
