While he made film history as the lead actor in the first NC-17 rated film, Henry and June (opposite Uma Thurman), he will always be more well-known as Remo Williams, the doomed Gus Grissom (from The Right Stuff), Earl Bass (from Tremors), John Anglin (Escape from Alcatraz), and I suppose Lyle Swann (the Timerider).

A War of a Madman's Making - a text-based war planning and political survival RPG

It makes no difference what men think of war, said the judge.  War endures.  As well ask men what they think of stone.  War was always here.  Before man was, war waited for him.  The ultimate trade awaiting its ultimate practitioner.  That is the way it was and will be.  That way and not some other way.
- Cormac McCarthy, Blood Meridian


If they made nothing but WWII games, I'd be perfectly content.  Hypothetical matchups from alternate history 1980s, asymmetrical US-bashes-some-3rd world guerillas, or minor wars between Upper Bumblescum and outer Kaboomistan hold no appeal for me.

I guess it's sort of nice that the word "tactical" seems to refer to some kind of seriousness during your moments of mental clarity.
