Floki reporting for duty.

Real name is Francis and I'm a non-military man who loves to war game. Started with Risk ended with Squad Leader (king of games) PC wise I come from Close Combat series of games and Battle Academy but I have to say that the Combat Mission games ROCK! Got my feet wet playing PBEM over at The Blitz but came here because I love the role playing campaigns/tourneys you guys run and hope to participate in some soon. Gonna have to put my name on the reserve list for Overlord soon!

I'm also interested in learning to take screenshot and videos. Got Fraps already. Hope to see some of you lads on the battlefield soon.

Cheers

Floki

I'm a Crazy Caunuk residing in central Canada in a place called Winnipeg. I'm a typical polite, friendly Canadian, conservative, meek and mild, until I lace up my skates and go on the ice, then I'm ready to drop my gloves.

I'm a 51 year old (young) man so those days are behind me. But in Canada we have what is affectionately called a "Beer" league. That's where old guys like us who can't seem to give up the game get together on a regular basis, rent ice, put the pads on and play. Then after the game we sit around the dressing room and drink copious amounts of beer and chat in a very politically incorrect manner. So ya, still play the game and hope to for many years to come.

SLAPSHOT!! I LIKE YOU ALREADY! That was filmed in my hometown and where I live now - Johnstown, PA. The arena (Cambria County War Memorial) is still standing and is home to some kind of Junior Hockey League for kids from ages 16-20 I believe. The Hanson brothers were great and one of them actually came back to town later to coach our semi-pro team the Johnstown Chiefs. We played our high school basketball games there too. They would lay the floor over right over the ice. Pretty cool! Literally.
 
@eniced73 That is so cool. Slapshot has made cult status in Canada and the Hanson brothers still continue to speaking and skating gigs.
 
Welcome mate - look forward to sparring at some point, with or without beer as the time necessitates...

Enjoy the craic and some new good mates...
 
@Ithikial I love watching your videos. I learn a lot from them and hope to do some of my own sometime soon. Hey a handful of guys I play hockey with went down to Australia to play in a semi pro league when they were young.
