MajorB	09 Oct 2015 11:08 a.m. PST
echo in here
ColCampbell	09 Oct 2015 11:12 a.m. PST
And I'll agree with the Major General's page. And with the echo echo echo Jim

ECHO… echo…echo… TVAG
vdal1812	09 Oct 2015 11:33 a.m. PST
I have to agree with everyone else
Ragbones	09 Oct 2015 11:47 a.m. PST
At the risk of being repetitive, the Major General's page. I'd also like to see more from a couple sites that haven't necessarily gone away but don't appear to have been updated in forever: The Red Shadow's page and the Jackson Gamer's Colonial page. Both contain terrific battle reports.
Mute Bystander	09 Oct 2015 11:49 a.m. PST
Maj. Gen. Tremorden Reddering's Colonial Page. Quite a loss for many gamers…
Bashytubits	09 Oct 2015 12:15 p.m. PST
I have to agree as well. Major General if you are seeing this, PLEASE come back.
Allen57	09 Oct 2015 12:50 p.m. PST
Major General is tops followed by the original Stronghold site.

Snapdragon/Moondragon…the site can be accessed, but not the wonderfully characterful terrain…none really like it since. Unique. moondragons.com The site has not had an update since 2010. Hope Kerry is doing OK.
Florida Tory	09 Oct 2015 2:29 p.m. PST
The good Major General's site. Rick
MHoxie	09 Oct 2015 2:37 p.m. PST
Does MagWeb count?
epturner	09 Oct 2015 2:39 p.m. PST
Major General's, followed by MagWeb… Eric
enfant perdus	09 Oct 2015 3:06 p.m. PST
I was a fan of Dan Schorr's Northern Wars site.
Flashman14	09 Oct 2015 3:10 p.m. PST
The Colonel's page as everyone mentioned abobe. Also, I'll second Witchhunter.net. Didn't Sascha Herm's site fade away too?
Tony S	09 Oct 2015 3:16 p.m. PST
Yes, yes, the Major General's…but also wargames@nordalia.com. I loved their Firefight series.
Mark RedLinePS	09 Oct 2015 3:47 p.m. PST

rmaker	09 Oct 2015 3:50 p.m. PST
Major General's, followed by MagWeb… I agree with that.
mjkerner	09 Oct 2015 4:20 p.m. PST
Reddering, Magweb, and The Red Shadow (I think it's still "there" but hasn't been active for ages).
FusilierDan	09 Oct 2015 4:43 p.m. PST
Spanner and Yank
Jeigheff	09 Oct 2015 5:32 p.m. PST
Ditto Spanner and the Yank.
Doms Decals	09 Oct 2015 7:08 p.m. PST
I still miss the old Wargames Directory, but feel obliged to add to the cacophony lamenting the Major General's retirement.
Shaun Travers	09 Oct 2015 7:19 p.m. PST
MagWeb – i still miss it years and years on.
Mooseworks8	09 Oct 2015 9:02 p.m. PST
The Stronghold
Old Contemptibles	09 Oct 2015 9:14 p.m. PST
MagWeb – I also miss it. What a tragic loss. By Jingo! Maj. Gen. Tremorden Reddering's Colonial Page.

The Major General etc., although it's not being added to, is still available on Web archive via Zeitcom. Google Tremorden Rederring. My favourite as well
MajorB	10 Oct 2015 3:42 a.m. PST
The Stronghold: link
Russ Lockwood	10 Oct 2015 2:26 p.m. PST
I'd echo MagWeb… :)
Timmo uk	10 Oct 2015 2:35 p.m. PST
The original 'green' Wargames Directory back in the day when you didn't even have to register to post. It could be a bun fight at times but there was a lot of great discussion as well.
CeruLucifus	11 Oct 2015 10:03 a.m. PST
Major General's page. Not familiar with many of the other second picks, will have to do some Wayback searching.
Weasel	11 Oct 2015 8:37 p.m. PST
The old Portent site, back when I was into 40K a lot. Fighting with people about 2nd vs 3rd edition, speculating on rumours. I think I even won some sort of forum award.
Khusrau	14 Oct 2015 5:41 a.m. PST
Mine… from about 1998… :-)
