I played my first war game 43 years ago (Avalon Hill's Waterloo for the curious) and in all the intervening years I've never had a dedicated place to game. For much of the time I would setup on saw horses in the garage. At one point I was able to use folding tables in a spare bedroom. In either case, the setup had to be removed once a game was complete and the space returned to its normal usage.

As of today though, I have a room of my own. I was able to fit in a 6'x9' table, a really comfy Lazy-Boy dual recliner, and a 65" Samsung super HD TV. It may not be the most spacious place on earth, but I'm tickled pink by it!

Enjoy your space. You deserve it!

Looks great!

I'd kill for even a small "game room" again.

Looks good and functional. BTW, AH Waterloo was my first "war-game" 39 years ago.

Agreed, looks great. However the walls are a tad barren.

Agreed on the walls. I just need the time to get some FPW prints framed and they will look better!

You wasted the possibility of additional table space on comfortable chairs and a TV!?!?!? Heck, you could go 6x12!!!
