That's okay, the wife already shot me down.

Dude.... hop a flight to Newark!  She might let you then. :)

Bring her along - The Jersey Boys Ladies Auxilary can arrange a day of shopping and fun for her and other visiting spouses. It will cost you some shopping money but you get to play so it balances out.

Ummm Hal,

 from my housemate/gf (who does play by the way)-
Of all the egotistic chauvanistic son of a bitching comments to make as if some of us "girls" don't play paint and or watch at the very least... let me at 'im!!"

  Dude...  that's all I gotta say.

  (I asked if she wanted smileys in there... and she said " no- let him wonder")

No prejudice here - Grumpel's wife Betty played me what was probably the best game I have ever had of Warzone. If all the guys in Jersey have significant  others - regardless of their sex - that play then I guess everyone else should leave their spouses home. I'm willing to bet they don't so why shouldn't the Wargame Widows have a day out together. As for the phrases - The Jersey Boys Ladies Auxilary and Wargame Widows - she'll  have to go femi-nazi on someone else....I didn't coin the phrases, I just used them.

Do they have any Capitol Heavy Infantry Boxed Sets?

Honey, can I drive six plus hours to NJ this weekend?  Can I?  Please?

Nope.  I'm the reason the store is a little lacking in the Capitol Department...

Archer -

If I recall correctly you offered me a couch if I ever got back east. Don't worry bubba - I will of course begin looking for a hotel when/if I get time to visit the East Coast so as not to disturb the tranquility of your happy home with my odious presence.  ;D

Don't worry Top.  She was just givin' ya da bizness.  Ask Dave- she has busted his chops too.  Though the ownership of the house the couch is in and location is no longer the same (Reading versus Trenton), there's no difference in what was offered.

  The Couch is still open...  though if you can't take good natured jabs, y'all might want that hotel. ;)

  She will be up in Maplewood with me it looks like...

As I said I have to work this weekend but I intend to get back there soon. When I do I will whip both you and her in a whirlwind of Warzone and then just to show it wasn't personal and to say thanks for the couch I'll take you both out for a bite to eat.  ;D

Good natured jabs are cool and I have a rep as a smart aleck so if I can give it I have to take it.  If she manages to wound my fragile ego I promise to only cry on the inside....where it counts  :o  :D

  She is laughing her butt off... and says this-

"Fragile Ego?  You're a Warzone Player!!  There's no fragile egos among Warzone players!!

  As for whipping her butt, she says says bring it- she's got a riding crop  :o and army that will kick yer butt from one end of the dining room table to the other. ;) ;)

Her words... "Welcome to the Machine..."

  Don't be too hard on him...  He's run into this army twice- once in my hands and slightly beefier version in the hands of of one of the Time Warp crew as a loaned army.

  And its a very easy army to run.  Which makes it all the more mean. ;)

Since these are friendly games you guys think it be an issue to bring more then one army list.
I might like to play different armies against different folks.

I only get a chance to play against some of you very few times though the year ;)

Should not be a problem.  I am bringing Cartel and Cyber.... maybe even *gasp* a Capitol force. (looks at collection; "how  many rangers do I have?")

I'll probably be bringing an Ilian force, and maybe Mishima...
