    We had another terrific Game Day at Gameology in Claremont on Saturday, with a total of 13 members in attendance.

    Rob Stai’s Russians fell to Dan Platcha’s Germans in “Lenin’s Sons”.

    Todd Schallberg’s Germans defeated Dave Butterfield’s Americans in “Sherman Marches West”.

    Eric Visnowski’s Free French defeated Stephan Tourville’s Germans in “Legio Patra Nostra”.

    Candice Juliano’s Americans beat Mike Cirrincione’s Germans in “88’s at Zon”. Candice and Mike finished their first game pretty quickly. So Mike took the plunge into the full ASL system in a rematch with Candice in “Shklov’s Labors Lost”, with Mike’s Germans falling to Candice’s Russians. Congrats, Mike, and welcome to the hard core. ;)

    Speaking of firsts, Glenn Sellar and I played that old classic “Shanghai in Flames”. Glenn got his first taste of the Japanese OB when my Sons of Nippon banzai’d their way to victory over Glenn’s Chinese.

    Bill Yuen and Mike Soffa had the last scenario to finish up with Mike’s Brits beating Bill’s Germans in “Mercury Rising”.

    Geoff Coward was in attendance, but volunteered to be ‘Lucky Pedro’ since we had an odd number of players. Thanks for taking one for the team, Geoff.

    And of course we had a usual lunch over at Marie Calendar’s. It was all a lot of fun, as always.

    Thanks for the AAR Jim

    It was my 1st full ASL Game

    RPT19 Mercury Rising

    It came down to the last die roll.
    Mike held the last building against
    an assault of 5 squads of falschirmjagers.
    They where all broken or pinned except for
    a half squad that made it into the building….
    and Died.

    I had a fun time playing against Mike Soffa.
    He and Geoff were very helpful teaching me about snipers, concealment and fire lanes.

    Thanks Guys!!!

    That's a fun scenario….not that I have finished my playing with Scott, who, upon starting to lose, mysteriously enrolled in school and become “unavailable”.

    You can suck it, Cicero. You are deflecting on me because you are afraid that once I *do* learn how to read, that I'll then be able to actually read the rule book and then I'll know that you've been cheating me all these years…I just finished a book that had NO PICTURES in it, so the rule book is not far off now…start running Cicero…

    Final exam tomorrow night…we can finish Mercury Rising any time after that…bitch… :)~

    Semper Fi!

    But see, your denial shines through…you can read just fine. You know the rules…I just know them better! It is your use of NUMBERS that is the true challenge…

    Final this week….holiday stuff next week…sudden relative dropin the week after….I figure you'll run out of excuses sometime in January of 2009…oh, wait! Isn't that when school starts up again? Yeah….we'll get right on that game for sure…
