2.  "Tigers in the Snow" -- Memoir '44 Overlord game that is really hard to find these days and remarkable expensive.  All played out with 30mm scale minis.  Eight players.

5.  "Chain of Command" -- This would be a learning game of Too Fat Lardies' WWII skirmish game -- Probably if we have 2-4.

We'll go this way, then, depending on how many people show.

I'll build "Market Garden" for Memoir '44 as well, just in case we blaze through "Tigers". (HA!)

Would not mind learning any of them, I am good on Thursday. Would not mind the CnC big game but Rebels and Patriots sounds good.  Really interested in what the group would do but here is my 2 cents.

I used to have that Tigers In The Snow expansion for M'44, but sold it off with my other M'44 stuff a few years back. Never got it out of the envelope.

So... it turns out I will be in town after all... thanks to world wide panic about coronavirus my conference in L'Aquila was cancelled.  :P

So what's up eh?

Well, f-ckin' A!

Really happy to have you by!  Real bugger to lose that trip, though.

You see the list above, my friend.  What's your pleasure?

I'll be around Saturday night to play! Have always wanted to try Black Powder, own the rules (but no minis) of course that's why tabletop simulator is great.

C&C Napoleonics is always good fun. I think my personal favorite is still Blucher as far as systems go, but it seems you've all gotten enough of that recently lol. :) I'm not picky will be up for whatever!

First choice would be Chain of Command followed by Tigers in the Snow.
Need me some "modern" stuff" fer a change.  :D

But will play whatever the majority wants. More the merrier.  :bigthumb:

I've recovered from dysentery or cholera or whatever it was. I'll be there. As always I'm most up for musketry but as I said before, we owe Vance something with diesel fumes. He's played our stuff for months now.


I actually don't really like games.
