Hey all, happy the site is back up and running.
Once again, I'm Ben (Spoogles), I'm an academic from Canada who researches modern the history of Eastern Europe and Eurasia, specializing in Soviet and post-Soviet defense / security. Loved wargaming all my life (tabletop and digital), both as a hobby and as a pedagogical tool.
Hope we can get everyone back here ASAP and get plenty of new members along the way!
p.s., Знаешь русский язык? Я бы с удовольствием попрактиковался с тобой ))
Welcome back, Ben — Great to see you made it over here. Hopefully the word keeps spreading and we can round up the rest of the old crew along the way. 🪖🍻
