Paul could you crawl around in A World at War, and tell me what you think of the naval rules as evolved from the A3R evolution of the game for me.

I might like to get it, but am unsure what might have changed. I only know, that a lot of people were unhappy with Rising Sun's inability to co exist with A3R seemlessly.

As for the son here, not sure, he ain't got my patience yet hehe. Plays every Playstation game via cheats, hasn't yet mastered the notion winning through superior intellect is more satisfying.

For the record though, I was into paleontology during my early reading years. So I am actually more scientist than historian in some ways :)

The year was 1967 and on the shelf of my favorite hobby store(can't remember the name) at Gulfgate Mall in Houston was a copy of D-Day by some unknown company called Avalon Hill. Bought it for a few bucks and that was a big deal back then, probably wiped me out for a few weeks. Stayed up all night reading the rules, punching out the counters, even set it up and played against myself, but by morning I still hadn't finished the game. Needless to say from then on I was hooked, followed with Midway, Afrika Korps, and no telling what else is still up in my attic and the enthusiasm just seems to go on and on ....and on.
