New proof that Global Warming is a myth!

This is a good place to plug Gencon–taking a trip to do your hobby seems crazy until you actually do it because your peer group is people who did the same thing.

This type of game always has a limited audience but that doesn’t mean that you can’t keep things going.  Right now the KC club is working on playtesting some mods, doing a few games a month, hashing out new strategies and setups.  If you build it and look for the community, its there.

I talk by email and phone to quite a few of the guys I’ve met here I consider them kindred spirits and friends.  One thing I brought up is War Room, but many of the guys consider it a different kind of game, another “all dayer” that may not really compete with AxA because its so different.

post this in variants, this kind of post don’t belong here. thanks

Thanks for answering Worsham.
Maine? Interesting. Would have been Massachusetts then. They did go far away (almost Canada, like Marc suggested).

You’re correct about the current world we live in. I went to war to help our economic trading partners whose economies affected our own. Kuwait’s occupation did not directly affect us and despite the peaceful embargo threats, Saddam continued to assert his claim of rightful conquest. It was also our military stance after the ceasefire that prevented Saddam’s expansion and the embargoes embittered the Iraqis against us when we finally decided to dethrone him. History does not only consist of WW2 as an example. the same thing has been happening for millenia. Tibet and Kosovo are polar opposites of bellicose decisions. Rome fell from internal dissension and civil war when those energies could have been better spent keeping the borders secure in offensive actions. The problems we face now have always plagued empires. We just happen to be lucky enough to be somewhat isolated an our economic empire is falling apart due to our society’s inability to adapt to the fact that the world is changing.
We have to protect that empire and a soft and weak military will cause that economic empire to be taken advantage of. You can use post war Germany and Japan as examples of weak military and economic growth but remember that their economies were heavily subsidized by our military might protecting their trade from others who would take it from them. I’ll just mention the Ukraine for a contemporary example and you can research the history, both economically and politically and come to your own conclusion.

I consider all 3 old parties to be the same; they are all essentially under the thumb of a centre-left European commission.

Two more flag possibles;

simply drop the Scottish blue;

or add black and yellow for the St David’s flag.

@Wargaming_nut:

Or… maybe people could just stay away from the borderline stuff? Wouldn’t that make life so much easier, and count down so much on hard feelings, etc.? Maybe it’s just me, but seems to make sense… :P

. . . but less fun.

@BigBlocky:

I have no idea but I’m guessing Germany. I’m Canadian, why should I know? :-)

:)
Well, i was not asking for the country (i would have guessed that Boeeing sits in the US) but for the state :). Anyway, there are more important things to know.
