I was fiddling with my blog's dashboard and accidentally deleted my previous long response to your own nostalgic recollections of BULGE '65. And since I have neither the inclination nor the ambition to reconstruct my earlier comments, I will have to make do with a considerably truncated version of my look back at gaming.<JCB IIIhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16490081362549015107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4836956334020662322.post-50823282936804685442013-05-18T13:13:16.638-07:002013-05-18T13:13:16.638-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.JCB IIIhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16490081362549015107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4836956334020662322.post-47881247942792184552013-05-11T02:52:06.045-07:002013-05-11T02:52:06.045-07:00I have to say, this classic is still one of my fav...I have to say, this classic is still one of my favorite games. Lots of things wrong with it but it is undeniably a good game and lots of fun. I find a lot of newer gamers have a copy of it since it is so inexpensive and readily available online these days. I have probably played it half a dozen times in the last two or three years! In fact, I just came from a game of it with Kevin who enjoys Lincolnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00577336347331555394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4836956334020662322.post-66219286221103697792012-02-10T04:29:28.128-08:002012-02-10T04:29:28.128-08:00Greetings Kim:

In fact, I and a couple of my friends played my first copy of the game so much FTF that we pretty much wore it out.<br /><br />Of course, starting with Dunnigan's magazine game, BASTOGNE,JCB IIIhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16490081362549015107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4836956334020662322.post-45438141854943723872012-02-09T14:44:19.542-08:002012-02-09T14:44:19.542-08:00I still play my old friend purchased by my Mother(...I still play my old friend purchased by my Mother(with me there to bug her) at Clark's Dept store(like a K-Mart)back in the day(I'm still trying to figure out how they got AH games for selling.I think Bulge was the only one I saw there)<br /><br />At the time I really didn't know about the horrid OB with missing units(The Brit's) but it sure was fun.To this day I still haven'tKim Meintsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4836956334020662322.post-60360922737268980202009-04-23T21:20:00.000-07:002009-04-23T21:20:00.000-07:00> "On the other hand, I have probably play...> "On the other hand, I have probably played BULGE ’65 fifty to sixty times; I’m still waiting to finish my first game of WACHT AM RHEIN."<br /><br />Oh my!!!
