But, anywho I need to start experimenting maybe with a top coat. Just got to do some research as to witch is best. I will probably settle on a counter thickness between columns 1-2 & 3.

I found a copy of Axis & Allies at a Value Village (yes, I scavenge thrift stores for board games, sometimes you get a gem) for 6 bucks the other day so I picked it up.  I had a copy in my teenage years.  Sure it ain't high strategy but at that price i'll take it for the box art.

You know, you get a CRT shift for using 12 year olds to sweep minefields.

Moore has some interesting stuff in this one. The review for Guderian's Last Gamble is just about ready for BGG. This one will follow.

For some reason I have an itch for the conflict. Finally found a copy of S&T's Ignorant Armies from fine games.

On the hunt for any AIW mods for the Iran/Iraq War.

Honestly, I don't think there is.
I seem to remember an issue of The General that had an expansion for the '82 Lebanon invasion for AIW, but nothing I can recall on War of The Retards.  Which is interesting, since it had the largest armored battles of the post-WW2 era.

Check Grognards?

Speaking of tomes, I just started Grant's Memoirs.  What a fascinating man.
