Hi,

Leonidas reporting.

Yesterday, I played the basic Mk III scenario with my father. He is 79 years old.
I was like 'Dad this is a game from 1977? (I was 6 then) Wanna try?" I hepled him in sone crucial moments but he toasted my Paneuropean defense. The best moments occurred when he realized the potential destructiveness of the Ogre. I will always remember the glimpse in his eyes and his badly hidden enthusiasm when he was rolling the die and obliterating armors.

My father is a retired communication engineer and has been a former director of the Italian Space Agency. He also wrote a very sofisticated bidding system for Bridge (the card game). It was so funny to make him play Ogre. He enjoyed the game more than he is likely to admit, I am pretty sure about it.

Leonidas out

End of line
