Take comfort that Larry Bond (his co-author) is still with us. Maybe Red October would be better.......

Just got news that I will be going to Chile for two weeks at the end of November. Its an International short course where I will get 3 credit hours. My first trip to South America.


Congrats mate


I remember my first trip to South America, on the way in to land we were told not to go around in groups of less than 2 else we'd maybe get mugged. If we went more than 2 streets away from the main strip we would get mugged and probably stabbed regardless of how many of us there were!

They pre-gamed it out using the Harpoon game (the paper counter version).

I've asked The Wargamer if they want a review. Maybe I'll make a video review, just for ****s and/or giggles.

If you make a video review, and I hope you do because I'd be interested, please don't show your toe if you don't like something.

Red Storm Rising


Jack Ryan:

Without Remorse
Red Rabbit
The Hunt for Red October
The Cardinal of the Kremlin
Clear and Present Danger
The Sum of All Fears
Debt of Honor
Executive Orders
Rainbow Six
The Bear and the Dragon


I didn't buy new Jack Ryan books:

The Teeth of the Tiger
Dead or Alive
Locked On
Threat Vector
Command Authority

Status: offline 		Welp, somebody else is doing a review of España 1936 for The Wargamer. Think I might futz around with video capturing stuff all the same, and see what I can do.

First impression of the game: very pretty, nice to have a new setting, adequate AI, poorly designed GUI. So, much the same as previous AGEOD titles...
