Yes, indeed that is my grandfather in the picture on page 47. At least when my Grandfather looked at the picture he said he remembered a photographer taking...

Chris, I assume that, based on your compliment, you are too kind. Otherwise it makes me doubt your judgment, and don't want to go there. Seriously, if you ...
I hope it was obvious that my post was supposed to say "I really like this idea, running the same scenario twice with DIFFERENT RULE SETS..." For those of you...
I have found that you can buy hardcover versions of some of the Osprey campaign series titles through Amazon.com at prices that are less than those for the...
I have updated the "PzTp variants" file located in the Files section of the Panzertruppe Yahoo group web page. It now has the additional mortars and vehicles...
I just want to remind everyone that I welcome submissions of variant rules. I'll add them to the variants file. I'm always interested to hear about additional...
I have been meaning to post an AAR on this game for some time, especially since I ran the game at the beginning of October. I have to go watch my brother...
Hi, I finally got a copy of the rules. All it took was me ordering them from Amazon and picking them up from my sister's when I got to California. Much less...

I got Wings of War (Famous Aces) and Ticket To Ride (Railroad game). We will have to get together with our stuff for a round robin gaming session. Thanks for...
It looks like they really increased the complexity of the game with the new version. From the pics I can see cards, dice, and the new unit types that you...
The US armored car you could not place looks like a White scout car. The tank you wanted to call a Patton looks like a M60a2. "Chris P." <cpagano@...>...
Actually, after looking at the photo below the one where the photographer (which isn't Chris Pagano by the way) says "Can't go wrong calling it a Patton... or...
Sorry, I didn't mean to imply that they were my photos, but thanks for the id. I am very poor at identifying post-WWII AFVs. In fact, I must admit that when I...
