My Return (and some acquisitions to boot)

It's not quite the legendary stuff of MacArthur in the Philippines, but long overdue -- and yet sooner than anyone ever expected -- I've returned to a life that allows my focus on AAR Central, and for good at that. I'm back after having promised to be gone for several years. Certainly for the better, I've chosen to return to my roots as far as my everyday life is concerned, and as a secondary beneficiary to that decision, it means I can return my focus to hobbies that include, among the many others, my focus on this blog. 

In the months that follow, I expect to ramp up playthroughs of various games that I acquired over the last 12 months. Among those are two "homecoming" gifts, if you will, that I purchased in advance of my arrival: Cherkassy Pocket: Encirclement at Korsun and D-Day at Omaha Beach, both Decision Games productions. 

Both come second hand as older DG publications, but still in excellent condition. My thanks goes out to the previous owner of Cherkassy Pocket in particular for acquiring the necessary errata counters, nearly quarter of a century ago now. (Time sure does sneak up on us all, when you think about it).

I've already played through the first scenario of Cherkassy, so that AAR will be going up shortly. At any rate, a nice little haul to welcome me back. Now to find out what I did with all of Ted Racier's games and a dozen other titles I seem to have misplaced. Time to go diving through the boxes in the attic.
