WBRP - TAHGC TOBRUK #1 ?

[Thin Red Line]

What does it mean ? It's the most obscure scenario title ever (and there is a serie of 8 posted at the SD).

Ya know, ya coulda just asked me instead, seeing as my e-mail address should be with the Battle section [I'm not at home at the moment, so for all I know you've sent a message to the "telusplanet" address that I won't see until after work tonight].

It's:
WBRP = William Brent Robert Pollock
TAHGC = The Avalon Hill Game Company
TOBRUK = [the boardgame title]
#1 = scenario #1 from that game.

TOBRUK is an Avalon Hill game that many of us played back in the 70s. Think of it as a forerunner of the SL system (individual squads/vehicles/heavy weapons), although it tends to be closer to MBT and IDF with the hit-location charts. Those eight scenarios are my conversion of the like-numbered TOBRUK boardgame scenarios. They're aimed at folks familiar with that game...my first attempts at using the Scenario Editor.

That "WBRP" tag might look messy on the Scenario Depot, but it makes keeping track of my sceanrios a lot easier at home.

Good job Brent Pollock. Exactly how I pictured the board game would look like in CM.
25 years ago I wished for a game like CM to take care of all the paperwork / dice rolls.

Wishes do come true eventually. ;)
