Guys, I think Warwick would have called it best for me, 15mm lead is what I like and what I know how to work with. I get severly frustrated with the plastic...
If space is a concern, I recommend N scale/10mm figures. You have the bang for the buck factor and it usually requires less gaming table space. There are tons...
Thom, Things seem to shift around quite a bit with me lately, I'm now in Tokyo... While your making your way to Thailand, make sure to stop off here, bring...
What about the micro armor (1/285 I think) scale? I remember doing modern tank battles, my French (spit..crappy equipment) fit in a very small container for...

Hi, I'm relatively new to this group. Over 20 years ago, I used to play SPI and AH games. I found this group searching around Yahoo! Groups and know things...
An acronym list would be awesome. If someone wants to write it up or send me some, I will be happy to put it into this site and make it open for anyone to add...
