Military and ex-military probably have a substantial edge on this one. Few things encourage gaming like a hardship tour in the ROK, and one of them is having playing a "Cold War Gone Hot" game as assigned duty in Germany. In later life, I was actually assembling a duffle bag army for a tour in Afghanistan when someone else got the contract. |

Been to six for work but only got to game on two.
( Missed the seventh when the C 130 broke in New Zealand) |

For those that are more than 2 I would like to know which continents.
I've played in both North and South America as well as Europe. |

OC,
Very cool. Was it a naval game though?

North American and Oceania (New Zealand) for me |

Joe, It was board wargames and yes we played "Midway", "Ca", Wooden Ships and Iron Men" and other naval games but mostly land games, Afrika Korps, Panzer Armee Afrika, "D-Day" "Napoleon at Leipzig" "Russian Campaign" "Winter War" Civil War Quad Games etc. I think we had three Marines, me and another Sailor. Work schedules constantly got in the way. I don't think all of us were avaliable at any one time. I wasn't into miniatures yet. But you could only play small skirmish games with miniatures and you couldn't leave it set up and come back to it. I think you could do small naval miniature games but it never occurred to us. Board Games were better suited for sea duty. |

The old AH Midway on an aircraft carrier would be awesome! I am jealous. Joe |
