Greetings from Dayton, OH

**csj1966** · 08-16-2021 11:18

Good day all! My name is Chris Jarko, and I've just started gaming again. Actually, I had started with one of the Dayton groups last year but then everything locked down due to COVID-19. I have played WGF, WGS, and T&T, and I have purchased SOG (but only played it solo). So far, my favorite is WGF. I have also played TSR's Dawn Patrol and several other hex-and-counter games such as Avalon Hill's Richthofen's War and Game Designer's Workshop's Air Superiority/Air Strike.

I look forward to playing and chatting with you all on the forums!

Best Regards,
Chris

Hi Chris! Glad to see you in the Forums! Lots of good information and great people here.

Jager and Jago85 made the trip down to join us for some flying in July. Fun day! Had a really nice attendance.

Jager, Chris actually flew with us Saturday! Had a great time! Hope he joins us in August!!!

Welcome, Chris! Lots of great info and helpful people here!

Good to have you here on the Drome Chris.
I'm sure you will meet a fine bunch of chaps during your ramble through our postings.
Fly safe.
Rob.

Welcome to the 'Drome, Chris, from across "the Pond" in the U.K.

Have fun, and watch your six!

Hi Chris. Welcome to the forums.

**zenlizard** · 08-16-2021 17:03

(welcoming head bobs) from the lizard here on the East Coast. In addition to FtF opponents, there's a number of us that are involved in a series of play-by-private message games; and there's also the Solo play campaigns.

And be sure the check out the files section for scads of things like "unofficial" planes, terrain, rules variations, scenarios, etc.

And if you have questions, ask away-someone on the Aerodrome is likely to have the answer, and you'll find we're a friendly bunch.

**Stumptonian** · 08-16-2021 17:53

Welcome, Chris from the 'Left Coast' in Portland, Oregon.
Seems like you are off to a good start.

**Teaticket** · 08-16-2021 18:03

Welcome to the aerodrome Chris. Looks like you are close to a hive of activity many of us envy.

**Guntruck** · 08-16-2021 23:13

Hi Chris, welcome from the U.K.

**flash** · 08-17-2021 00:24

Welcome to the 'drome Chris from Dorset in England, I've been lucky enough visit Dayton and to fly with the Wright Flight and the BGIF, you're in the right place for keen WoG gamers.

Ahh... Ok. No face, and my brain has problems with names (old brains do that

Glad to see you've kicked in on the Aerodrome. Chris made a nice splash this past Saturday, dishing out as much or more than he took...good combat flight awareness, obviously a skill you picked up with Richtofen's War. Looking forward to many more Saturdays with you in southwestern Ohio.

**Von Scharf** · 08-17-2021 19:40

Welcome Chris. I’m thoroughly jealous of all the Ohio Players.

**Rebel** · 08-18-2021 09:50

Hi Chris and welcome to the 'Drome' from over the pond here in West Yorkshire in the good old UK. Enjoy the game fly safe and always watch your six.

**IronOkie** · 08-19-2021 10:08

Howdy, welcome aboard from Oklahoma!

**Naharaht** · 08-20-2021 19:20

Welcome to the Aerodrome, Chris, from over here in the United Kingdom.

Karl where do you guys play in Akron? I'm in Youngstown, might make the short hop over there one day!

Currently we're not.
There's only myself and Glenn (Jago85) out here; the rest of our gaming friends are RPGers.
I'm hoping to get my house cleaned out enough to host sometime. If I were to host a game, there's a shop in North Akron, we could get a table for.
If I can get a game going, I'll let you know.

Jim,
If you ever find yourself in Dayton, stop by and fly with the Wright Flight!!!

That would be great. If a Saturday, I'll need a few weeks notice, as that is a regular workday for me (retail; go to love it
