Please... Call me Smokey.

In the summer I fly R/C combat. Missed ace by a couple of kills last season. We fly Gremlins, mine having the Red Baron motif (the guys at the field call me The Baron). Love WW1 planes.

In the winter I like to build static models of pre-WWII subjects. At the moment that would be the Saratoga CV-3 as depicted in 1939 which still has biplanes on her deck. I like warships and warplanes, so an aircraft carrier seems very logical to me. I found the Military History section invaluable. Lots of great photos. For me, 2/3's the fun of building a model is researching the subject and learning its history. The modeling section also has a lot of excellent info, links and photos.

I'm not much of a wargamer, though I used to play Axis and Allies and, of course, Risk pretty regularly in past years.

Thanks for having me,
Smokey

Hello Smokey, welcome to THE FEW GOOD MEN!
Joining our community was the right decision - Combat Mission is at it's best when played against other human players! :)
 
But only for the moment, I guess... *gg! ;)

"Risk" and "Axis & Allies" are only the "starter drugs" - only the beginning of a splendid, grand, brilliant, glittering and glorious COMBAT MISSION wargaming career here at the FEW GOOD MEN! :)

And everybody knows that especially among model builders "Combat Mission x 2" is the most valued PC wargame in history of all times in the universe forever. :D
 
Thanks for the warm welcomes!

Well, I watch my son play SOCOM on his Playstation. Tried it once or twice. My fingers on the controls wouldn't do what my brain told them. Maybe too many paint & glue fumes from model building?

And that's why we prefer the turn based games instead of the fast playstation... *gg! ;)
