SIGH! Mike thinks we all have Traveller: Adventure 7 - Broadsword sitting on the shelf at home. Yes, Mike. I did at one time own that - but I don't now! :) Geek! - Ted > --- gzg-l-request@lists.csua.berkeley.edu wrote: > Date: Sun, 17 Jun 2007 08:13:06 -0600

"Broadsword - the first in a class of 800-ton mercenary cruisers devoted to keeping the peace and restoring order, for a price. Included are detailed deck plans, tables of organization and equipment for the strike team aboard, and four exciting scenarios (one for use with High Guard and three for use with Mercenary and Striker!), all set in the Vilis subsector, against the backdrop of the Fifth Frontier War."

_______________________________________________ Gzg-l mailing list Gzg-l@lists.csua.berkeley.edu http://lists.csua.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gzg-lEvery gaming item I ever sold I regret. Even the old Evil Empire stuff that payed for my cross country move. Luckily I have a buddy with a angel of a wife and a huge game room so I still have boxes sowed away that I don't know whats in them. Best part is my old gaming group uses lots of my terain, trees and WW2 stuff so while I get in a game about 2 times a year my collection is still in use and getting the TLC it needs. > On 6/17/07, Michael Brown <mwsaber6@msn.com> wrote:

I can't say that I regret everything. I still have a lot of games I never get a chance to play. Many of the games I sold weren't as great as I remembered, anyway. I sold my entire collection of Supremacy, but I don't think I ever played more than 3 games to completion. I had about 75% of the ASL modules, but I finally had to admit I'd never learn the system; I sold it all to a guy in Alaska. I regret a couple of games I sold, mostly because I now have an 8 year old son. I probably regret selling of Advanced Heroscape most, as I think he'd get a kick out of it right now. We were talking about Car Wars a little while ago, and how I had most of the modules (though I also remember the dense rule book, and think that maybe it wasn't all that I remember it to be...). For the most part, though, the games I have and play now I prefer to those that I sold. I do still have a bunch of old games that I won't sell (such as Avalon Hill's Gunslinger, and Up Front) but I notice that I hardly play those even though I want to keep them.

I sold Arab-Israeli War at one point, but bought it again cheap on eBay. I lost a copy of Luftwaffe, but now have an unpunched copy that I bought at an antique place for $7. I try to haul one of these out every now and again and play it, but time's always at a premium. I did play Panzer Leader around the time of my 43rd birthday, to celebrate the 30th anniversary of me as a board wargamer.
