What, "professional wargaming"? Like, earning a living from playing?!? |

Earn a living from wargaming? and take all the fun out of it? No, thanks. |

I've done both, and give me hobby gaming every time. By and large, the amateurs are more "professional" in the usual meanings of the term--prepared, focused and to a degree impersonal--and MUCH less inclined to cheat. Hobby wargaming mostly is fun, but I usually left my professional games with a feeling that I hadn't been paid nearly enough. Maybe more training will help. |
