So we just finished this KS up today and Dave did an amazing job running this game. Everything moved at a consistent pace, good communication, and a good time. If he runs another game, everyone  should consider joining (so long as I get one seat!)

Thanks for a great game, Dave!

that's great to hear!

Now, who is writing the AAR?    :biggrin:

Dave actually did a good summary in the Discord channel we used. I think he may be working on a video, too. And the Fairfax player, I believe, kept a journal of what was going on with the Good Guys in the game. I'd imagine one or both will get that posted here before long.

I mean i can have a stab at a 'My First Kriegsspiel' rundown for the home page if you would like? I can include why i made the scenario, my thoughts and personal critique of myself as an umpire and a nice AAR of what happened?
