No, but how about "Car Wars," which was also a Steve Jackson game, if I recall correctly.

Road Wars 2000 ... freakin awesome game. Wish I could find a computer slow enough to play it now.

Hell, all I did through the '80s was AD&D....FIRST EDITION!! Some Traveller also, but not much. I even invented my own RPG called "Victory In The Air". Now, if I could only remember what it was about...

AD&D, Traveller, Squad Leader, Air Force, Dauntless, Richtofens War, Third Reich, Crete and Malta, Fortress Europa, a bunch of SPI games...

I remember Car Wars

never played it though.

Lots of late nights, coffee, and arguing over rules. "The unit cant be resupplied in the advance phase if a previous enemy unit was in the zone of control of...." hehe.

OMG...the arguing of the rules. I called it "quoting scripture". Lost alot of time during those heated debates, but also got some gem quotes:

The DM gets up to get a soda in the kitchen. A player goes over to DM screen, picks up the d20 and closely inspects it. "Hey guys, wanna know why we are getting criticalled every other roll? He's got a double 20 d20!" Nothing like cheating DM's...

"I'm the DM and it's my game. If I say the kobald has a +3 two handed sword, +4 large shield and a full set of +3 plate mail, then he's got it!!!"

DM:"You see a mounted knight crest the hill some 2,000 feet away. He has blue eyes, blond hair, and wearing very intricate field plate but no helm."
Player:"What kind of weapons does he have?"
DM:"You can't tell, he's too far away."

Those were the days...

Computer games are nice in a lot of ways, but I think I had the most fun with as group of friends pouring over maps and charts, either invading Normandy or jousting in Greyhawk.

Thats what sims like AH give back to it, playing with people not, just against a computer.
