Members of the Jackson (Miss., USA) Gamers recently helped our "supreme leader" redeploy his massive collection of "little lead men" and terrain from his old house to his new one. With four pick-up trucks, one van, two compact utility vehicles, and a small car, the move was accomplished with only one mishap. You can read all about it and see some pictures here:

It's heartwarming to see a buch of guys get together and help another out! May everyone enjoy hundreds of gaming hours at the new house.

Our group has done this for one another on numerous occasions. Another one coming up fairly soon.

This is the second time we helped him move his troops. First time was about 15 years ago.

But the bigger task is for him to get everything put away in its new "barracks" space.

That is when you "find" all the things you forgot you had! I cringe a bit when thinking about packing up for the return trip home from here in Germany. I have been buying books, scenery (plastic built buildings for less than the kits) for the last 6 years. Will have to get creative in packing them with damage mitigation in mind.

Cheers to you and your group!

I had the good fortune of "having a little help from my friends" to move my stuff recently. I left everything else for the pros but needed TLC for my toys. Thanks again Mike, Maisie, Randy and Richard!
