Wow I remember those days. I used to have Squad Leader, together with the Cross of Iron expansion and Cescendo of Doom expansion. I sold it many years ago. Couldn't find playing partners anymore. People were moving on to PC games by that time. Those were great games. The setup times was a bit time consuming though.
I also used to have Tobruk, which I also sold. The other day I found Panzer Leader, Airforce and the Dauntless Expansion, as well as Firefight in my cupboard. Brought back many memories. Now it feels like I was a fool selling the others, but on the other hand they would just have been shelved like the others.
Man those games had detail in them. Especially Squad Leader.
I bought a PC game called Over the Reich a few years ago. Imported it from the UK. It's basically a PC version of Air Force. At least I could play that on my own. Even that is shelved now.
Thanks for bringing back some great memories Greybeard.:)
