Sounds good to me; I'll be there.
I hope there is no FOG_WWII, as your tank is better than mine!

I can't wait to see the FOG_ACW list, It will undoubtedly have only British, French, Mexican, and Russian armies!

It will be our revenge for all the dodgy Hollywood movies where the US single-handedly wins WW2 despite the facts. Objective Burma, U571 etc etc etc :)

An original and refreshing internet topic at last! ;-)
The United Nations countries won the war - fact. Let's leave it at that.

Tipped the scales because they were the last in the pan, the uncharitable might say. I'd prefer to say all that what was on the Allied side outweighed all that was on the Axis. Beyond that, these debates degenerate into provocative b*ll*cks.

All that was on the allied side was sailing in American ships, flying American planes, shooting American guns, driving American vehicles, wearing American cotton and spending American cash even before we entered the war.

If it helps buddy, what you Brits did was make sure there was still a war for us to win.

Back to Historicon

Do we want a tournament?
I would think some demo games, some set pairs, so pre-planned gaming might be a smarter approach.
We could have space for walk up match ups as well. But i wonder if players will be ready for the jump right in tournament.
