- Play at least 2 East Front titles to satisfy my desire to complete 1930-1940 of the Chronological Walk thru of WWII. At this point they will be Blitzkreig ’41 and Hitler Turns East (ATO). (10-30 hours) ONE COMPLETE and WRITTEN UP
- Assess what is next in the Noob Study of the Operational Art of War (3 hours).-DONE – we will play 3 Nappy titles on the Battle of Aspern Essling – Tactical Level 1 hour or less per turn.
- Ideally generate a Side by Side comparison of those 2 East Front titles (5 hours). FAIL
- Finish the majority of TBL with Bill Lawson via VASSAL (turn a week). -FAIL. We played 3-4 turns. Bill has me so badly boxed up on the Adrennes I resigned. I might try to pick it up again if he wants to but the losses are too high and the roads are closed!!
- Finish a campaign of Red Winter with Steve Arthur (4-6 sessions). – Steve and I paused to start Panzers in the Ardennes, we have 4 turns done I expect to pick this back up when PiA is complete! We are on the 18th December AM turn of that game.
- Begin playing Hellenes to see if we can generate some GBOH scenarios! (6-12 hours) – FAIL
- Play at least one bulge scenario or game. (8-12 hours).- Done
- Sticker and play Blocks in the West. (2 hours stickering, 3 hours play) –Done
- Organize Case Blue & GBII to be setup for a campaign play in early 2014 (once family leave town first two weeks of Jan 2014)……(ugh hours). On Oct 15th Turn as we speak, a big achievement solo. Not too many grave errors and a lot of fun.
- Plan on playing LNL modules of Modern combat end to end and doing some nifty video/narrative starting in December and rolling into 2014. (5 hours in 2013) –Completed 1 scenario and made a vid Done.
SCORE? 5/10 + 2 partials.
5/10 is still pretty impressive for that ambitious a to-do list.
🙂 I’m working on it!!
