In a shameless plug for Gamenikki.. I reviewed it for them. 7.5 out of 10

The summary:

This game is smooth and polished enough to feel like it has years of work behind it. Design issues aside, Tin Soldiers: Alexander the Great is staying on this psuedo-grognard's hard drive for a while to come.

SirFoz,
Great review. I am curious are looking at getting or reviewin gthe next game in the series Julius Caesar. It has 14 battles instead of 7 and they have added a 3-d battle map with improved terrain graphics plus six stand units? Also, I remember that you are coachin gthe BC team in FOFFBCB League, right? I got the UMass team. We finished of 16-16 quite a disappointing year. I noticed you guys had atough year. How are you guys looking for next year?We lost are leading scorer and are very, very young only 3 players with ore than two years experience. So, it could be another tough season for the Minutemen I fear. I am looking forward to the second game of our home and home. I think we are coming to your.

*laughs*.. Damn.. Have I been on FOFC so long that I still have student in my profile?

I went to Dean College here in town (Franklin, MA), have an Associates in Communication Arts (radio broadcasting)

We're still not very good in FOFC, we were unable to get a killer ball handler this year, but being beat by the UMassholes was the low point of our year

The problem I had with the Alexander game is well.. it's playing Warhammer Battles on a FOFC. No immersion really. And there's no opponent to joke with or argue rule interpertations with..

Between that, and the game restricted you to the good guys unless you were playing multiplayer.. two dark spots/

We're still not very good in FOFC, we were unable to get a killer ball handler this year, but being beat by our mental and physical superiors, the University of Massachusetts at Amherst Minutemen, was the highlight of our year

So what do you do now?

I'm a System Support Technician at EMC Corporation, a contractor.

Basically, when your $250,000 Clariion system breaks, I'm the one you get to yell at while I try to diagnose what happened, and failing that, get the case to an engineer

Oi Desnudo.. I saw that Post Edit you did!

I KEEL YOU NOW!

Chemical: It's usually the head of IT, or in a few cases, the company's Chief Technical Officer who does the yelling.

You ride an ambulance? I know this is a PC world and all, but "System Support Technician" is a pretty stale way of saying medic.

Nah, that's my job title, Could be worse, I could be a System Support Engineer (which is the next step)

I am the first line of contact (usually) on cases and work the case and/or escalate as needed
