My wife is a much better strategist and tactician than I am. She has played many games at the conventions and is welcomed there by the players and the gamemasters. She also has a "unique" sense of humor and can sometimes pull off some very unexpected actions, much to the dismay, chagrin, or bemusement of her fellow players. When she commented that she sometimes gets odd looks from younger gamers because she is "an old lady", I made her a tee-shirt that says: "I got dice older'n you, sonny-- Just roll 'em!" |

My wife is also a great strategist…she finds ways to trap me into "honey do" projects all the time. I'm glad she doesn't wargame, I'd lose all the time. |

As to the above, I am all on side with ZuluPaul – my wife ia a superb strategist and the very few times she has gamed with me she has kicked my butt |

So, 72+14… that means that 14% have a wargaming spouse? 1 in 7? That's pretty awesome. |

I love the t-shirt. Actually, I have run convention games with dice, miniatures, and rules sets that were older than some of my players. |
