Why Combat Mission?

[Zemke]

I'm also and old tabletop gamer, i played the big ones. longest day, fire in the east and scortched earth. theses games took months to finish. they had over 2300 counters and of couse ASL.

I had FITE and SC, but my wife throw them out in the trash. I was Sooo pissed off, I almost tossed her out. Her reasoning was "You never play that silly game anymore, and it was just taking up space." Anyway, I bought a copy of each on E-Bay. Not that I will ever play the game again, but those memories of those "looks".....lol. I could not bear to part with the game. I guess part of it was all those hours looking over the map, deciding what to do, they are like old friends. I still have my copy of "Panzer Blitz" too. Played for the first time in years at deer camp with an old friend of my, while our boys froze their butts off hunting, we stayed nice and warm in the camper....playing Panzer Blitz..., and there were some of those looks too.....lol
