Tide of Iron


Tide of Iron
Continuing my solo wargaming, tried the beginner scenario again. Ended in a draw. The Americans couldn't knock out the last Tiger before round 4 ended. Picture is end of turn 2.

    Are you using some sort of solo rules, or just taking each side?

    Just taking each side.

    I'm going to do it. I'm going to get the Next Wave box.

    It's a self-contained wargame with fiddly bits, some customization, and models. It's what I want!

    I think if I like it I'm going to get the Stalingrad expansion.

    Yeah, this means I never have to get Flames of war or Bolt Action.

    Casey, Bring those tanks to Gencon. I will take them home and mail them back to you a couple weeks later.

    This looked like a game I would really enjoy, but I couldn't get either my hard core grognard friends or light wargaming people to give it a whirl. Thus, it sits in a box.

    I bought it during the Fantasy Flight Christmas sale for a huge discount, assuming I would always be playing it solo. Grognards should like it, it’s a hex and chit game that uses minis instead of chits.

    Loving these solo wargame posts man. Inspired me to set some solitaire stuff up again recently. I really think I prefer playing each side in historical wargames rather than games designed for solo.

Originally shared by Curt Thompson This is an interesting theory, but I notice the author has to omit one of the most important Heinlein novels to make it work. Time Enough For Love was written in the very early 70s and was a straight (heh) extrapolation of the chaotic and frenetic zeitgeist of that era. http://www.locusmag.com/Perspectives/2012/11/the-joke-is-on-us-the-two-careers-of-robert-a-heinlein/

Hit Me with your Horror

Originally shared by Andrew “Incomitatum” Chason Hit Me with your Horror I am looking for some horror flicks. The newer the better. Good is good too. I liked House of 1000 Corpses and Devil's Rejects . I liked both the new Texas Chainsaw movies. Hills Have Eyes 1 was good (never saw the second . Jeepers Creepers 1 & 2 come to mind as well. A little camp, and/or "back woods" can't hurt. Any of you have any recommendations? Lets try and not go too far back than mid 90's. Aside: How was the new "Freddy" movie? Suggested So Far • Bones (2001) • Drag Me to Hell (2009) • The Grudge (2004) • Don't Be Afraid of the Dark (2010) • Dog Soldiers (2002) • The Decent (2005) • Creature (2011) • The Last Winter (2006)
