    Default Greetings from the Great Lakes!

    Greetings All! Happy New Year!

    I am a newcomer to the game, diving in after playing it with my X-Wing group. Great game, starting with a fleet of 12 ships, experience tells my wife more to follow... Glad to be a part of this group, seems extremely friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. Hoping to find others in southeast Michigan to have a friendly battle with. -Dave

    Good to have you alongside Dave.
    Did you get my welcome message O.K?
    I will look at the membership and see if I can find anyone else from Michigan, as it is a bit far for us to fly over for a game.
    Rob.

    According to the records, the following members are from Michigan.
    You may like to drop them a PM and see if any are near to you.

    Greetings Dave and welcome to the Anchorage (from your neighbor across Lake Michigan). If you're far southeast Michigan you might want to check with the Ohio groups as well? There are some very active Wings and Sails groups if memory serves?

    Thanks Rob! Message received. I don't think you are supposed to fly here. Sail on over!! Probably in the red a lot heading this way though...

    Funny thing is that last time we flew over, to see a ship sail over and dock at Yorktown, Dave.

    Yeah, but that's just football, right?!

    Uh, that's one theory... One slightly optimistic theory mind you, but a theory nonetheless...

    Ah. . .I think I understand. Might be along the same lines we view the "Flatlanders" from Illinois or the "Yoopers" from UP Michigan?

    I'm not sure I can add anything to the war welcome that we have already offered here, but I'll chime in anyways. Welcome to the Anchorage!
