Cadet Ben Slagle Reporting
Posted: Sun Jun 20, 2021 7:52 am
Sirs and fellow cadets,
Well met. I'm Ben Slagle from Winchester, TN. I work in enterprise software systems and sorely miss business travel after a year at home . I've been an avid wargamer for going on 30 years, mostly boardgames. My interests include the ACW, WW2 (especially the Pacific) and pre-Napoleonic Europe. In ACW gaming, I've spent most of my time with Civil War battle titles from the Gamers. Very akin to JTS games with a fair bit more chrome and a lot more die rolling. I've also enjoyed For the People a fair bit. It's not the most historical of games but its a very competitive. I also played ASL (too much) and Lace Wars series (operational War of Austrian Succession). I made the gradual switch to computer wargaming when I began to find the mental load of boardgaming via email to be a drag.
Glad to have found what looks to be a tight gaming wargaming community. Groups such as these are becoming a rarity so I count my blessings.
Looking forward to bringing the fight to our wayward brethren!
