huh? I'm a wargamer for as long as i can remember. started out as a kid playing axis and allies with my older brothers. Then graduated to playing them on the C64. One game i cant remember the name. Europe commander or something. Was a great ww2 game i loved playing the dday scenario as germany. The 352nd infantry division at omaha beach is a beast. :)

Just WITE right now.

I restore my laptop from a ghosted image of a clean install every 2 or 3 months so nothing stays there for long.

You are smart to just keep a few on the hard drive. There's so much I'd lose just with mods if the worst happened and most I'm not playing anyway.

It is a pleasant diversion when I get fed up of trying to get an nkvd regiment to retreat from a swamp in front of Leningrad!

My laptop has a rather diminutive HD so I have to limit myself to a few games:
War games:
WitE (obviously)
CoG:EE
Forge of Freedom
Strategic Command:European Theatre (but compared to WitE this is tic-tac-toe

)

Not primarily war games:
Victoria:Revolutions
Europa Universalis II:For the Glory
Civ IV:Colonization
