1. I like to play, review and do AARs on my own designs because after they get developed by the company things change a bit from the original design. Most are good changes but a few maybe not, like some victory conditions but overall its good. The only way to know, is to play them again.
   

 

1. It might have been year’s sense I originally played these out and designed them and they were finally published, so I need some memory refreshing.
   

 
 

1. I enjoy playing them and with the finished product and hope others get the same enjoyment.
   

 

1. Lastly, if helps Avalanche Press/Mike get their sales up, so they will release some of my other designs like: Ochi: The Italian-Greek War 1940-41, Chosin Reservoir: Korean War 1950, The Fall of the Philippines 1941-42 and the Brazilian Expeditionary Force 1944-45 to name a few, it as means to an end.

  Ron game collection.xlsx (Size: 21.98 KB / Downloads: 17)

I have attached a list of games that I have accrued over the years.  I am willing to give most of them to someone who would be able to play them and show them some love.  I would like to keep the PG games and some of the others.  If it is a large game like "A Most Fearful Sacrifice" then I would  have to work on a price for those.  I would need to be reimbursed for shipping.  Meet up is also optional.  Games range in condition from players copies to never played.

Let me know if you or someone you know is interested.]]>

In other words, this tool doesn't go out to the web to do research and make up answers to your questions, it is limited to using only the source documents (say PG 4th Edition Rules .pdf file) that you have uploaded to the Notebook.

To use this tool, which Google provides without charge, go to the NotebookLM website (you can click on that link to open in a new webpage). You can do this in Google Chrome, or Microsoft Edge, and maybe other browsers as well. On the webpage, you simply click on the black button near the upper right of the webpage to "+ Create new", and it will open with three panels on the page. The left panel is where you will upload (and later select which sources to use or to not use), the middle panel is for "chatting" with the tool - that is to say, where you will ask your questions, as well as where NotebookLM will answer your questions. The panel on the right can be used to summarize source documents, or create flash cards, or slides, or mind maps and other things. Google has a very helpful help section as the first item you can select under the 'Settings" button in the upper right corner of the webpage near your name/profile. Here is another link where Google explains about NotebookLM: Google NotebookLM | AI Research Tool & Thinking Partner that you can check out.

It takes about ten minutes or less to get this set up using a PG rules .pdf file. The responses it gives include numbered circles which you can click on and it will take you to the actual text of the rules in the left-hand panel that it used to respond to your question. You can also save the answer as a note, which it will post in the right-hand panel as a running list, so you can see the answers to previous questions you have asked, and it answered.

I have been using this now for several months for different wargames rule sets (each in its own NotebookLM) on the webpage which I have bookmarked. I had an idea that AI should be useful for helping us wargamers with rules, and it was Dickie at RvT Wargames on Consimworld.com where I first learned about NotebookLM from one of his videos.

Besides the leader list, I need to know what is on the back of the truck counter. Is there anything special about the back of the MTC/20 counter? Have the Danes got off-board artillery? If so, what are the values (not the number of increments)?

I will likely add an engineer piece to the mix. How about other counters? Like the Landsverk armored cars? Perhaps some aircraft (mostly biplanes)?]]>
