Set up the Crusader scenario of DAK to bag up the the counters for a quick set up at a convention:

Gen. Montgomery: "Your men don't salute much."
Gen. Freyberg: "Well, if you wave at them they'll usually wave back."

I got burned for the first time with a second hand game, although it was the Counterattack booklet with just one row of chits. They were clipped with a nail clipper! Why would anyone do that  >:(

Nice acquisitions.  That WW3 game seems to be part of a series.  Don't know much about it but looks good.

Thanks  :)   I don't know much about it either, but looked like it could be fun so thought why not.

Edit: Seems like a three-game series. Found this cool pic from Geek with all three being played as a campaign

Wow that does look cool.  I'm lamenting the fact that I'd totally play a game series like that but have absolutely no time to dedicate to a monster of a board game like that.  But I suppose if I could secure a room where no one would disturb my game I could play something like this in small doses over a long period of time.   8)

That's the reality isn't it. At most I can take two evenings off each month, although lately it has been more like one evening every two months. I need to go to college again  :D

GDW's series, that included

Third World War / Battle for Germany
Arctic Front
Southern Front
Persian Gulf

If you can find a complete set, unpunched, you could make a down payment on a car with them.

Much-beloved, for a good reason

Good to know! I have only one, and it is punched, so no new car for me  :))
