Lately I've gotten right back into wrestling (both current and watching the WCW days as I was trained by WWF to hate all things WCW in the 90s and avoided it). I also read just about everything and try to keep myself informed, but I get fascinated with interesting science stuff or how fascinated people are in the past. Case in point: here's a boy in 1948 watching television for the first time through a storefront window:  |

You buy a rulebook for how to play.. and an army book which has your specific army information. But long story short. Its a turn based game. On your turn you move your miniatures and then you shoot the other guys army.. and you roll dice to determine if you hit and if he dies. Then after an army has lost then you declare a winner.
It can be an expensive hobby.. the miniatures dont come assembled or painted. So it is a hobby rather than just a game. You cut out your models.. then glue them together than paint them.

sounds like a more elaborate version of Risk.
Fun fact about Risk. The name is deviated from the first initials of a former President's daughters or grand children, R.I.S.K. (If I recall correctly) and was banned in Germany until it was announced as a game that liberated the world instead of conquered it.

Hockey is my huge passion, can make a bad day into a good one (if the Leafs win). Another new passion of mine is good health. And by that I mean eating right and staying in shape. Tomorrow I'm starting the "Egg and Chicken diet" and will be going to the gym everyday I can.
