President's Message

Editorial

by John Burke


First let me state that our game day on Saturday, Oct. 9 at the Optimists Club was well attended. I want to express my thanks to Russ Lockwood for coming to our event. I for one can say that I enjoyed the opportunity to check out what MagWeb has to offer the gamer and history buff. Russ has invited us to Stockton NJ to play in his "Snappy Nappy" operational level Napoleonics game. When we have more info we'll pass it along. I hope to see you at our next Game Day in Pleasantville. Bring a friend and introduce them to our hobby. What's News!

Financial Update

The treasure chest contains $81.85. So the SJCW will finish in the black. We will collect $5 from non-dues paying members at the Nov. Game Day in Pleasantville. As always, newcomers and kids get in free.

November Game Day Schedule

Kursk 1943: The long awaited battle between Bill and Caesar might actually happen this month. In any event, it's the last time we'll list it in our Game Day lineup. Scout's honor!

Richthofen's War: Baron Mattfred von Fritztofen, the legendary Red Baron of Wildwood, will take on all comers. Hop in your Sopwith Camel and try your hand at WW I aerial combat. Can you do what Snoopy never could -- beat the Baron? Not bloody likely, but you can have fun trying.

Space 1999: Phil has some kind of wacky space battle planned, but an ion storm disrupted his subspace message to the editor so we can't give you any details. As the Space Marines would say, "Come get some!"

The Game With No Name: Join Matt for a wild, unpredictable skirmish game set in the Old West. Gunslingers, lawmen, banditos, and Indians will get together for a little party. "Are you gonna draw those pistols, or are ya gonna whistle Dixie?"

Belgium 1815: Ted and Ray are running a 6mm Valmy to Waterloo battle. Rally around the colors men. Union Jack or French Tri-Color.
