L4, you horrible old man.  Now you've upset Icon.

(Icon, don't you wish there was a 'glare of doom' emoticon?)

You get the ladyfriend to play (game of choice) for those times when you don't want to play 'the other game'.  You can spend quality time with a ladyfriend across the game table.  Trust me on this.  It is always worth the time to at least introduce the idea to her.

Is your girlfriend an Anime fan?  If she is, show her the new Appleseed movie, and tell her that the Tau are like the Landmates (oops, that's the 40k seller).

Oh, well... not so upset... (but the "Glare of Doom" could be cool!!!)... I know that a female wargamer could seem odd, but
we exist?:(8:

@ Malakai: It's true, it's true... go with Eldar and she'll be happy... I'm a girl (26, woman?) and a psychologist, I know my chickens!!! (that's an Italian saying, don't know if translates so well...) ?

Kisses, Icon.

Sorry Icon ... didn't know you were non-male ... :D ?But Lion is correct, I am a horrible old man (49 as of last Weds) and my "friend of interest" is 26? ... :cool: ?Should have figured with a signature block that says "Kisses", was feminine ! :;): ?Sorry if I have offended you Milady ... ???

:wow: Did I just see a cow fly past?  :p

EDIT: Just to make sure there are no misunderstandings; in Finnish the saying "when the pigs fly" is "when the cows fly".


I'm a girl (26, woman?)


Since you are over 24 you qualify as a woman in MNSOS.  :8):

Glad to hear, Sin ! :D  I'm not known for being smooth with females ! :laugh:  Might have been that 10+ years in the Infantry ! :D But we do have something in common ... my Grandparents came from Italy in the early 1900's ! :;):

Well... probably... Don't you have females in the Army? We have them in Italy, but it's a recent add-on. BTW I know a good bunch of female wargamers here in Italy!!!

But we do have something in common ... my Grandparents came from Italy in the early 1900's !


Really? A branch of my family emigrated in the USA in the early 1900's!!! We could even be long-distance relatives!!!

Kisses, Icon.

I'd be surprised if you were. MNSOS = Mojarn's Not So Official Standard.  So it's not Finnish either. :laugh: In Finnish it would be MENKVS.  :alien:

Icon of sin i curse you if you are in Rome, i was bored to tears there for 3 days while my wife was at the office (dragging me after her as sight seeing wasn't as important as briefing her on what she was discussing next!).

Incidentally Iran has an all female tank formation. At least these ladies are small enough to fit in those mini Russian tanks!

Yes ... but I doubt they are any more effective than the Iranian Male Crews ... When it comes to combined arms maneuver warfare the really only effective force in the region is the IDF ...
