RE: Thanks to Glenn, JT and the whole HPS/JTS crew!
Being a long time monster gamer before computer games were more than a floppy disk or even god forbid, a cassette tape ).
I remember staring in to a black tv screen while dot after dot might represent a computer executing an attack on an enemy aircraft carrier.
I appreciate the level of involvement and scale and dedication of what is represented in the creation of a humble 300 some odd mb file.
Tiller's games were the first ones to really translate from the boardgames that I was playing at the time.
The site I am running was Rich Hamilton's site. It still basically is, plus whatever I can add to it. I knew Glenn before I knew Rich... Rich got me in to play testing, first in an add-on, then on to actual products. Ironically neither was an area I was particularly familiar with. I don't know John Tiller, except through his work, and through his team, never met him, might recognize him from the images posted on the internet, but that is about it. Actually I don't personally, know anyone on his team- we've never met in person. Even so, I don't think wargaming would be the same for me, without what they've done, been doing, are doing now.

OT for a sec:
There was a comment made on another board, and while I am not going back over there for awhile, I want to address it.
It was stated that the site I am playing with might not be viewed as impartial.
The fact is, I never claimed that it should -it reflects my wargaming interests,
-but I suppose the more accurate response from me should be: "Ok."
