I have a rift hmd and I have a app called big screen and I used it for WIP. It's pretty good. I'm a little old so it really helped with the tired eyes thing.

19?!?!?!? Don't we have an age requirement to get in here somewhere?[:D]

Oh, alright. Wow 19, didn't think any of you whippersnappers had any interest in this stuff.[8D]

Oh, and get off my lawn.[:'(]

Just try not to break your hip while watching your CVs sink[;)]

Lol jk, I respect all the old timers on here and you guys (and some gals) have certainly helped me to a large degree in understanding this massive and incredible game.

Rustysi I'm a unique breed, been absolutely fascinated in WW1 and WW2 since grandpa had me on his knee telling me about "waking the giant" and "Lets go Canada!" he was only in his late teens when the second world war ended but from about Dunkirk, he started to pay attention and detailed every couple weeks in a journal that he kept at the time. I loved hearing about what the world went through during those dark days.

Then I guess my fascination was only aided and encouraged by my father, who in the late 80's (early 90's[&:]) played games like "Rise and Decline of the Third Reich" "Rising Sun" and his all-time favourite "Twilight:2000", it was strategy and roleplaying at its finest and he loved every bit of it. He introduced me to "Harpoon" after I had ruined his first edition "Command at Sea" books (apparently valuable source material for a pen and paper game was not a good colouring book for a 4-year old[:D])

By the time I was 10 I had a very good and detailed knowledge of the second world war and its fronts and theatres, although at that time I thought Burma was in the Phillipines for some reason. The Great War only became, for lack of a better word interesting, after I played "Through mud and blood: the Somme Offensive in the eyes of a British officer" it was brutally simple compared to AE but it still gave me the spark to read more about WW1.

Funny enough, there was 1 other classmate that I had in high school that played and that is my very first pbem experience (wasn't until we reached '43 that I realised what aviation support was used for) but I consider it a golden learning experience.
