    Playing this weekend: Testing one or two things, depending on time: someone else's abstract asymmetric info game, and a retread of my Greek Civil War (1947-49) game with a different system.

    Definitely Battleship

    Considering I just returned from Winter Offensive 2012, ASL is the only thing out on the table these days.

    Ah, good ol' ASL...

    I heard there were some other games running at Winter Offensive, too. I saw some pics online of a *big* Market-Garden game going. Did you see any of them?

    And to answer my own questions:

    What's the last wargame to hit your table?
    --- Tank on Tank, from LNLP


    What's the last one you actually played 'til someone hit the victory conditions?
    --- Tank on Tank, from LNLP

    What's the last wargame you fired up on your computer?
    --- Civ V, if you count that one. Otherwise, I have no idea, since it's been a long, long time.

    What's the last computer wargame you actually finished?
    --- Again, Civ V. Though since I managed to win without going to war with any other major civ (just fighting barbarians and city-states) maybe that rules Civ V out of the 'wargame' category, eh?

    What are you dusting off to play this weekend?
    --- I had some Civ V going between the moving and renovation work, and dealing with a sick child this weekend. Would love to get some tabletop gaming going again, but right now the games are in one house and the tables are back at the other one :)
