Heh.  The Great Koufax Desert.

I started out with Avalon Hill's "Battle of the Bulge," "Afrika Korps" and "Stalingrad."  Was too young for "Tactics II."  Feeling a bit older now.  Computers have made a colossal difference in wargames (especially if you were serious about "Squad Leader"), but it's a shame that people don't get together for a night of board gaming and booze anymore.

Oh ya... when I was stationed at GTMO with VC-10, we would have games that lasted weeks
because some were on day shift and others, like me, were on the night/grave shift
Though the game was slow, after work, I looked forward to seeing what the day shift had done  :aok
Btw... there was know cheating... at least with those that played  :rock

I actually did a lot of the artwork for this one years ago.



I don't think sales were so hot however. . . . :(
