Anyone really jones-ing for a Lock n' Load product?  I have some credit at the LnL store that I would happily use to make some grog's Christmas morning a little more combatative.
First one to PM me gets on the "nice" list.  Shipping costs may make this offer financially viable within N. America.

Now, the problem is, how to divide five Afghans from three mules and have two Englishmen left over.

That's such a nice offer.

I'd take you up on it, but I have so many new tabletops right now.   

Never played LnL, though.  Will have to do that sometime in the future.

That really is very nice of you. I'm sure there are a few grogs here who have to pass on getting a game for themselves this Xmas due to shrinking family budgets. I hope one of them is lucky enough to benefit from your generosity.

Perhaps somebody that is purely a PC gamer now (or always has been).  Could open up the eyes for them as to what other types of wargaming there is out there.

No takers?  Hmm...well, I'll leave this up for one more day...

If there are no takers, I'm all for taking Space Infantry for a whirl :)

But I get plenty of games to work with through GH, so if anyone else raises their hands, send it their way!

I'd like to check out one of the LnL games.  I'm at a loss as to which one, though, as I'm not familiar with their stuff.

I'd take a more Modern Cold War or World War 3 setting.  Or Arab-Israeli conflict type thing if not those.   Would that be the "World At War" series?  I have no idea which titles are the more popular ones in that category, but if there are no tabletop gaming noobs taking the offer I'd like to check out one of their products.  I'd take whichever one of those you'd recommend.   

Arm wrestle Brant for it?  :P

Let Nefaro have 'em.  I'm good :)

Done...PM sent to you Nefaro...depending on scale, either World at War: Eisenbach or Heroes of the Gap.  I am thinking World at War: Eisenbach..

I dunno.. I've been most curious about their smaller scale stuff so Heroes of the Gap would probably be my first choice. 

I don't currently have any tabletop games covering that scale, and that seems to be something LnL is popular for.   Would love to check it out.  ;D  If it all clicks, I may invest in further stuff on down the road from them, including something larger in scale.

Thanks again Jack!  Just rec'd it!  ;D

What'd ya get?

Eisenbach Gap Deluxe from LnL.

It has some pretty high quality stuff in the box and doesn't look so complex that it would take too long to learn.  Platoon level wargame.  :D

It's a great game and series. Very easy to pick up. Plays quick and plays very well solo.
Enjoy, and feel free to ask questions.
