    Hi All,

    I started playing Wings of Glory a few moths ago.

    I have been interested in an Airplane Miniatures game for some time, and this fit the bill well.

    I hope to learn somethings on here and maybe share somethings too.

    I have an long history of war gaming.

    I started back in the day with Avalon Hills games (Tactics II, Squad Leader, Richthofen's War, and I could go on & on)

    I've gotten more into miniature gaming over the last 5 to 8 years. I have other miniatures in 1:285th, 10mm, 28mm, 1:1200, & 1:2400 scales.

    We do go to Historicon, Fredricksburg VA, & Fall-in at Lancaster, PA.

    I recommended my two gaming friends to the site Rich & Charles, hopefully they will come aboard.

    Thanks, the site looks great Keith,

    Mike

    Welcome to the 'Drome, Mike, from across the Pond!

    Yet another long-time gamer/modeller here, but there's always room for more!

    Welcome! Whenever I hear "Avalon Hill" I am transformed back to my childhood. I still have the copy of LeMans they made back in the day, what great games. I'm sure you will enjoy the Aerodrome. Jim

    Welcome to the Drome Mike. I run lots of games at cons so if you and your budds make it to next year's Cold Wars I should be there with a few Wings games to fly in.

    G'day Michael & welcome to the 'drome from the pilots who fly in NSW down in Australia.
    Glad to see you have found the Forum as there is so much good info available here to help you enjoy the game even more.
    Check out the Solo Campaigns in both WW1 & WW2 sections for some cool ideas for games scenarios.

    Thanks all,

    Bob we will be at Fall-in probably on Saturday morning. We only live 2 Hours away, so we just go for the day. If I'm there at that time I will look for you.

    Welcome from Orrygun, Mike.
    Been a gamer for pushing 50 years but away from playing since I moved to 'Murrica in 2000.
    This got me back in 2014 - I have not regretted it.

    My bank account, not so much ...
