Mogami had a sign (which I unfortunately don't have a picture of) saying. "Will work booth for beer." He got work.

Was that a Zidane-style bludgeoning tournament? Cause he's amply equipped for just such a one.

Oops, I forgot one. Here's the $340 (soon to be $420) WitP boardgame. I'll get my copy in August.

Look at that stack of counters! 32 counter sheets, about 9000 counters!

Edit: You can see part of the map in the background. The game weighs 26 pounds.

Edit #2: The stack on the table on the right are all of the tactical maps of the islands. It looks really cool.

Unfortunately, no. Next game I start is going to have an AAR. A record would be great.

That is the reason I started mine. I figure it will be great to reread, you know, after I finish the game...should be about the time my kids start college (I don't currently have any yet).

Make sure to throw in some comments about fashion, etc. It will be a great time capsule. lol

Considering the very high-level scale of the main map, methinks most of those counters are for the tactical battles. I would love to have this game, but I would be shorn, castrated, gutted and hung up to dry on the nearest high-test power line by my wife if this showed up at our door.

Let's hope you don't have any enemy willing to have you off'ed for $340 + s/h ...
