Thinking of an AI capable of managing a tactical level warg...

The AI is coming as long as time marches on. It took time but Garry Kasparov did lose to a computer. As for the club I would think that also like chess playing the computer/AI has it's place but one would still like to test their skills against a human opponent. As to Matt Clausen comments, I would ...

I'm in the Union army but happy for a maneuver just the same. I have Antietam, Corinth, Gettysburg, Shenandoah and Shiloh. Since I'm a noob I haven't developed any preferences for rules or such so happy to go with the flow. Please email me at loudscott at gmail dot com.

Regards,

Mike,

Best of luck moving forward. Very happy for your help and introducing to me to the club. As one of your last (if not very last) cadets I thank you.

Hey Kent, Thanks for the warm welcome. Indeed I'd enjoy playing 3rd Reich via Vassal. While it has been many (many) years since I have played the game I've never played on Vassal. As for complication I think it is comprehensive but it's not SPI's War in the East :lol: I think most people are content...

Thanks Rich. Appreciate any pointers and guidance. I was considering asking my noob questions here but I noticed there really weren't any other "noob question" threads. Didn't want to be the new guy who can't stay on topic :D But fair enough, I'll do so moving forward.

Thank you all. Guys, I too regrettably lost (gave up) my original teenage years collection of games in the 70's. But I started rebuilding my collection (small as it is) in the 80's and I still have that library. But I found that on Noble Knight Games you can still purchase pre-owned games. I have a ...

New recruit here. I reside out in California but please don't hold that against me. I've been playing wargames since the 70's starting with the AH and SPI games. After retiring I have much more time to devote to this hobby. While I am new to the WDS titles I look forward to coming up to speed and en...
