I cut my teeth on Tactics II, which taught me the importance of using armor to outflank and encircle your enemies. And I spent half the eighties buried in Squad Leader. Thank you Mr. Roberts!

I could never quite get on with AH’s more ‘granular’ output. The chap who learnt AD&D with and I once tried to make sense of ‘Antietam’, but it was a lost cause really. But I still have somewhere (though with a few pieces missing now) my 1976 first edition of ‘Kingmaker’, which is one of my all time favourite board games and contributed to deciding the period I studied as a grad student. Apparently, Gibsons have now got around to publishing the long-awaited new edition, but I haven’t picked it up yet.
