Rites of Spring

Not a great time for wargaming.  Temperature in the 70’s, Baseball starting, yard work (with chainsaw) the order of the day.  Plus, a new Surly ECR to ride.  Just too many other things to do.

Still, have been hacking away at Thunderbolt/Apache Leader.  Granted, I’m beating up on the hapless Iraqis, but it is fun zipping around in an A-10 using just cannon and rockeyes.  Ground game mechanics are limited, but with a purpose.  No sense getting bogged down in that, when the simple mechanics do put pressure on you to attrit as many enemy battalions as possible, stretching your assets to the maximum, or have your airbase overrun.

Received a book on the Dambusters today.  Looking forward to getting into that and start building up knowledge for the preparation and flight phases of Enemy Coast Ahead.

Fishing and riding for the rest of the week.
