I have a question about my BattleCorp subscription. I just received a notice that it is about to expire; is this for the old web-site or the new site? I'm asking because I can't find the subscription option in the store list.

Probably old, but I'm not 100% sure. I would ask Adrian_Gideon about it.

I actually have a boxed set of Wooden Ships and Iron Men that I found a few months ago at HPB.

"Rich Berg once responded to gamers comments about one of his games, "I make this ****** up, so can you.""

"Back in MY day we played Battletech with figures made of LEAD! POISONED LEAD! And the only PAINT we had was RADIOACTIVE! Why, we lost at least THREE or FOUR dear friends every YEAR to BATTLETECH POISONING! But we didn't know any better, and we LIKED IT!
And we rolled DICE for HOURS to play our games! There was none of this plastic clicky nonsense! Our DICE were radioactive TOO! And we had to roll them for hours and hours and hours to track EVERY SINGLE MISSILE! Why, my some of my friends are STILL rolling dice for their last turn when I left Norman THREE YEARS ago! And I don't plan to move back for at least five years and it STILL won't be my turn! But we didn't know any better, and we LIKED IT.

Do you guys play any on Thursday or Friday?  Specifically April 13th or 14th?  I am going to be down that way on my days off while the wife attends a work seminar.

Not normally, but we might be able to swing something one of those evenings. :)

What's the plan for this weekend?

I got my Space Battleship Yamato fleet in and found some conversions for all of those ships. Was hoping to get a game of Starmada in.

At today's Mario Cart X-wing game (large ship), we learned a few things: low skill pilots should be in front; random firing arcs for gun towers don't always seem that way, the Shadow Caster can be annoying, and Kylo Ren's shuttle is MEAN (even when he isn't stressed) >:D

I just got a new toy that is the right scale.  If we can round up a bunch of unseen Archers, Crusaders, Phoenix Hawks, Stingers, Wasps, Riflemen, Longbows, and Warhammers we could try Robotech RPG Tactics (could you bring my combat cards with you, Weirdo?).  And I have a bunch of Crimson Skies planes to bring.
