Thanks for all the great work you've done with SPWAW, and all the other projects you've been involved with.

Status: offline 		As I read through these very kind greetings and accolades that far exceed my efforts, I smile as I read each name. You are all special guys. The things we have done together are always warm memories for me.

A few heroes are missing from this list of dignitaries and I hope that they too are doing well, wherever they are.

Indeed, the thousands of hours spent doing the work was well worth it, knowing from your testimony that is has provided challenge and entertainment for you.

This magnificent game has been "my baby" for nearly 10 years now, since the beta testing of the original Steel Panthers. Its still my favorite.

Well, I've taken a year of rest and I think I must once again get to doing what I enjoy so much, some more scenario design. Of course, there are so many gifted guys out there already doing them that I spend more time playing than I ever did before.

I thank all of you for these greetings. They are warmly received and will be kept by me.

Status: offline 		Bill, for a scenario or even a mini-campaign, the Cape Gloucester (New Britain) campaign--this one has been neglected in the saga of the "Old Breed", the 1st Marine Division.

I still will hold with an ultimate dream 1st Marine Division "Old Breed" Mega-Campaign, from Guadalcanal to Okinawa. An alternative would be the 4th Marine Division, who went straight from formation on the west coast into combat at Roi-Namur, Saipan and later Iwo Jima. For that matter, ANY of the six Marine divisions would be worthy of consideration.

Status: offline 		If I or another gamer did it, it would have rather minimal appeal. Most folks go for East Front and tanks...lots of tanks!

But for those of us with an almost inordinate passion for the Pacific - WW2, it does have special appeal.

In another gaming system from John Tiller, I did two games with him on the Pacific. It has a lot of good Pacific fighting. The system is simplistic and the graphics could be better but the engine that runs it is great.

Some of that work and study on particular battles could easily be brought into the SPWAW format. In fact some of the same Pacific scenarios I was able to do in both games.

Food for thought, Gunny. Thanks...WB

Status: offline 		Wild Bill how about some scenarios regarding the Burma Campaign, or how about the Aleutian Campaign? They aren't always thought of when covering the PTO, but could be interesting as a new theater for us. Just food for thought.
