Not at all, but maybe our "Chuck" did a long time ago.

I wrote a nice AAR on the event only to have my internet connection poop out on me & I lost the entire text. So I will have to investigate my now unreliable internet connection & give an abbreviated version.

The decision to hold TC3 in conjunction with NashCon was wise. I didn't get over to their side of the hall too often but many of them came over to check out the games. They all showed a lot of interest & some even bought a few games. It was a good cooperative effort.

I was able to play 3 or 4 games of France14 HTH against RickyB. From the start it was obvious that VM has put a tremendous amount of work & thought into this game. To say that the OOB info, background history & game notes are thorough would be an understatement. They are literally hundreds of pages. I would highly recommend that before anyone plays that they read the notes on tactics & how to play the different armies. Although the interface will be familiar, this ain't PzC. Read the notes - they explain the dynamics of early WWI warfare better than I ever could.

Second, the round table discussions about the operational series of games were very informative. I would just say to all out there in Blitz-land that your comments & suggestions are at the least being read, if not in actuality being acted upon. Unlike the ill-informed comments you'll occasionally see out there, the PzC series is not stagnant but being improved upon all the time.

Finally, I met a bunch of great people at TC3. A lot of ideas were exchanged and although we always didn't agree what was good or not good for the series these conversations were both thought provoking & insightful. I do want to specifically mention Mike, VM, RickyB, Dave (aka Blackie) and last but not least, Glenn Saunders. We shared a lot good ideas about the operational games and a lot of laughs also.

In conclusion, I'm not fully convinced about how truthful the story about Chuck is but I intend to investigate further & get to the bottom of it. :P

Is there any chance we can get a tiller con to los Angelas?

Well Al, I think it is worth a little more probing, but I hope this is the last of it, at least for now.:rolleyes:

Did anyone take some pictures of TC3 that they don't mind sharing? Maybe we were so busy talking that no one remember to take any?

Thanks! It took me a while to find it, but I see it now (on the far right in the blog section).
