Anyone know if there will be a "Fulda Gap" MicroArmor battle being played there this year. I've been modelling U S Forces, circa 1985-1990 while hoping to eventually game this. I've been searching the HMGS website and can't find any mention but think that somewhere I saw there would be at least one Fulda Gap battle in MicroArmor. Not sure even what day it was supposed to be.

I keep trying to find someone / somewhere to game and hope this might b the place to find a venue and opponents. Worth a try anyway. I get jealous of all the other games being talked about! Can't leave all this armor "rusting" away unused!!

Brigade Commander.... what are you doing this Sunday, June 12? At 10am we are planning a modern micro armor battle. then in the afternoon, have another modern micro armor battle. There may be some Strykers and M-8 (MGS).

The game is in Jacksonville, FL. Think you might make it? You are welcome to bring your stuff or use ours. We have plenty. It will be 'great fun'.

-> chrisswim: I saw your game being discussed. Unfortunately, I am up in PA and that much travel isn't an option this weekend. Looks like it is going to be a great event!

-> Firefight: I went through it game-by-game but didn't see it in the revised listing. There was in previous years but I didn't see it this year. I'm just not sure if there is a "bring-and-battle" area that I haven't found a list for that might save the day. Seems like still a relevant period to game. Cie la vie. Or should that be "Cie la guerre"?
