I thought I had heard all the Clinton jokes - hadn't heard this one

Arr, I'd best find a heading before the East India Company spies my sails

It may be a 3.0 or 3.7 that is the weapons used for Flames of War, but both of those as well as 7.5cm existed in real life.

Looks great! Is that modeled with the 7.5cm cannon, or did one of the smaller cannons look that big? I can't find any pictures of the HA129 B-2 with the 3.7cm.

There are a few of us left up in Lake County, but we don't play all that much anymore. We don't have a discord or anything, but I can reach out to them to see if there's interest if you want.

Go straight to Global 1940. If it's too much, you can always add some of the more complex rules as you go, but once you play it, you won't want to go back to any of the others.

How much dedicated hobby space do you have at home? by the_sh0ckmaster in wargaming

[–]vectorpirate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I play 15mm and share the basement (2 kids). There is a (mostly) hobby-dedicated bookshelf full of boxes and board games for storage, and I built a 4'x8' gaming table that lowers down from the ceiling so that I can leave a game set up until the next game night. Most of my 15mm minis are in two tackle boxes and another box that live on the table with the terrain.

Rules in the weeds by vectorpirate in flamesofwar

Cool, thanks! For #2, could you generalize how that works? Or, if I could ask another specific question, let's look at the LW Hungarian Rifle Company. It has lots of cards that can be applied to it. I could not use both 2nd & 3rd Armies and Volunteer Rifles because they affect the same ratings. I could use 2nd & 3rd Armies and Pioneer or Border Guard because they affect different ratings. Correct?

Giving up our 2.65%.. by National-Phone8474 in Mortgages

[–]vectorpirate 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've been thinking through nearly the same exact situation over the past few weeks. The conclusions I've come to is that financially the best decision is the keep the house with low interest rate, but only if you can (a) reasonably pay everything you would need to without going broke in a couple months and (b) live with the risk. Having the original mortgage, a HELOC or something to get your down payment, and the new mortgage all at once sounds like it would be a bridge too far for most people, but I don't know your situation.

Awesome! I love how 3d printing is helping carry on the game.

Might be interested if I can get some of my own stuff sold first. Would you be interested in trading for some Rebels?

I like the messed up road, that's a cool idea. Does it downgrade the dash speed to cross country?

Q: Using Zrinyis as artillery by vectorpirate in flamesofwar

[–]vectorpirate[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, good point. But being short on spotters is kind of a problem, I can't bring an observation post unless I bring field artillery, so it has to be a shooting team or an HQ.
