Will you be observing the 100th Anniversary of the Great War (World War 1) over the next four years by playing more wargames from this period? (a) Yes (the 100 year anniversary has stimulated my interest) (b) Unsure (c) No (no interest in the period whatsoever) |

(a) Yes
we play occasionally anyway (amongst a multi-period historical interests group) but it is appropriate and topical to address the issues of the Great War including reconstructing/exploring some of the key events with wargames. Phil P.B.Eye-Candy |

Modified (c). I am interested in the period but will not be playing any wargames from this period. |

Yes. WWI has always haunted and obsessed me like no other war. The anniversary has nothing to do with it. More interest from others because of the anniversary will provide more opportunity however. |

(a) I have just bought German and British armies in 10mm with 120 infantry, 6 guns, 6 HMGs and 6 tanks from Pendraken. |

(a), I'm in the same boat as Intrepide. Always wanted to play but now interest is peaking and more models are getting made. |

A – The 100 year anniversary has piqued my interest in a few things I don't normally look into for WWI. Time limited, however, have to prep for the centennial of the revolution my grandfather fought in that is upcoming in three years. |

Yeah, but I'm mainly 1918. |

A. We do play occassionally but we will be getting Square Bashing out to the table more often. |

A but only naval. The land war was too grim save for a few months at the start and in Palestine. |

Also, anyone looking at the Phocaea Massacre, the Ludlow Massacre, or the Mexican Revolution for their centennials? |
Martin Rapier | 19 Jun 2014 11:03 p.m. PST |
D) I play WW1 all the time anyway |

If this comes to an actual poll (c) needs to be modified to "I will not play WWI more or less than I would otherwise have done." And why not (d) I'v been so bombarded with stuff about that war I am starting to avoid games on that theme. |
