Rethinking Smoke

[Grognard Gunny]

You have a point, Juiceman. Last time I played with a competitor (...and it WAS some time ago), he wanted to argue about every rule.... strangely enough, he would argue to benefit HIS effort on the field of battle. (Imagine THAT!) Since the historical aspects are more important to me than the mere fact of winning..... I let him "win" to get him out of the house.

This "hobby" is more a matter of 1) Setting the tone for the historical/game aspects of the situation. 2) Seeing how the designers handled those "problems" in the game. 3) Ease of play for the "nonbelievers". For me anyway. Victory/Loss means nothing. (Except that the odds ARE on the side that DID win, historically speaking.)

That's where I'm coming from. I think that PG does that very well..... so I take notes..... AND enjoy the games.(I rather like the AAR system that this forum affords also... adds to the fun.)
