My first Board wargame was Avalon Hills "D-Day". It was followed up by "Africa Corps", "Tobruk", "Fall of France" and the game that really hooked me "Russian Campaign".
I was a big time fan of "Squad leader" for many years as that game grew into the rules monster from hell.
Then the game of all games landed on my lap. "Drang Nach Osten". Man I loved that game and when "Fire in The East" and "Scorched Earth" came out I played nothing else for 5 or 6 years board game wise. A group of 6 or 8 of us used to get togther on the Eastern Shore of Maryland for giant games afew times a year. The Russians always won.
My first computer game ever played was SSIs "Guadacanal" in 1982. Me and this army Captain used to play it at Fort Monroe Va every weekend. I then bought my first computer, an Apple II and grabbed "Bomb Alley" and "North Atlantic 86".
Whoever would have guessed the hobby we knew and loved as kids would slowly die out.
We are truly the die hards the ones who are left.
