    Dont laugh but it can be very stressful. Sitting at work all day wondering if the French heavy cavalry had finally launched their charge that you just know will tear huge holes in your line.

    Once a year (next week in fact) all the guys come round to my place and we set up a network game and drink loads. Dont tell the doggy but its better than sex


    Sounsd fun. Used to do a lot of PBeM stuff a few years back so I understand the stress

    Did some table top Napoleonic stuff in the dim and distant past when I was still a student.
