Ahoi from Saxony

Ahoi everybody,

I'm a gamer since I can remember thinking and was always fascinated with ships and the sea. Even as I was raised in an inland province I wanted to become a captain when I was a kid.

Today I'm in my middle ages and didn't become a captain in real life, so I have to command tiny little ships to get the feeling of it. We are frequently playing with our little langton toys in our local gaming group and for this years Hamburger Tactica (largest convention for historical wargaming in Germany) we will present a demonstration table with some easy-to-play homemade rules. As soon as I get the forums permission I will post some pictures of the building process in the hobby sub-forum.

Cheers, Alex

Good afternoon Alex and welcome to the Anchorage on behalf of all your shipmates based here, or out upon the seven seas. My own harbour is about as far from the sea in England as you can get. Your forum permission is in place as we converse and I look forward to seeing your pictures.
Meantime may you sail with a fair wind and a willing foe.
Rob.

Servus Alex,

Der Opa meiner Frau wohnt in Tharandt. Der kannte noch einen von der Wismut, der mit Günther Prien zur See gefahren ist.

Heißt nicht, das aus Sachsen keine Seefahrer kommen. :wink:

Willkommen im Anchorage.

That's true, ~1000 years ago the Saxons even came over the north sea to pay a visit to England ;)

Thanks for your warm welcome!
