My Strategy Addiction

Ever since I was 6, I've been addicted to strategy. At age 6, my granddad taught me how to play chess, and I was hooked. A Star Wars and L.O.T.R. fan, I played games like "Epic duels", and the Lord of the Rings board game. For video games, I played "Fire Emblem" and "Advance Wars". Now comes the one problem with these games. Although great games, they didn't allow you to field leaders as well as troops. Fire Emblem focuses on fighting armies with a group of characters, while Advance wars let you field only troops. (Although the new Adavance wars does let you field your C.O. now...) So when I saw Heroscape, it attracted my attention right away. Troops AND characters?!?!? AWESOME! Mimring and the vikings attracted me to the game most...(Not to mention it's the Battle of ALL TIME... I love history.) That's what happens after too much L.O.T.R. and Fire Emblem. I started to put money away towards the set, but, as always, kids can't stop themselves from spending, even if just a little. Then, my next birthday, my uncle gave me the master set. I nearly fainted.(Well, not really...) It just so happened to come with the E.O.V. as well. And that began my Heroscape addiction. Still addicted to strategy, I'm now playing "Civilization" and "The Settlers: Rise of an Empire". And, of course, Heroscape, The battle of All Time.

Anyway, thanks for reading!
