Smokey:

Good to see you here. Things are getting a little bit "weird" in the other place. BTW, where are you in FLA? My Dad lives in Tallahassee (don't worry, he's not a Criminoles fan ;)).

Welcome aboard, Usagi! My nihongo is too many years too rusty to put it in roman characters :). What sort of historicals are you interested in?

Thanks Bako! My interests tend to shift, thanks to the wonders of Gaming ADHD. ::) If I had to nail it down I'd say I preferred WW2, both 15 and 28mm, followed closely by the Great War and the later 19th Century, both Colonial and Old West. I also do a little Napoleoninc Age of Sail on the side. I'm threatening to one day create a Sengoku Jidai army; just haven't got there yet.

All this being said, I will game just about any period except zeds, pirates, and moderns, no offense to the above mind.

Sorry to hear about your crappy weather by the way. Right now we're having some of our best weather of the year here. The fog, however, will impose it's inexorable will in a couple of days though.

LOL!  Wait till you see those boards.  They do some awesome stuff.  (Lot of WWI and interwar, here, relatively)

You will be pleased as pudding when you see some of the stuff here.


Pirates may not be your bag, but the Pirate Boared is AWESOME.  Check out my "Your Ships?" thread and take a gander at all sorts of ships here, many Napoleonic.

(I'm trying to bring you over to the Barabary Pirates, War of 1812 15mm dark side!!!)


I'm in Vero.  Atlantic coast
