[QUOTE="Wik, post: 3620712, member: 40177"] Yeah, I'm a navy brat myself, and I remember in Toronto, my dad was in about three different gaming groups the five years we were there. And, he's a SFB *freak*. Something he picked up just before he joined up, I think. Right now, I play in a monthly-ish game with him, a friend of his from the Navy, and my little brother in absolutely CRAZY games of Axis and Allies. Lots of fun. I generally find the military folks I've met and talked to to be very interested in the mechanical side of things, and tend to say things like "that's not how it works in the real world" before they go off on a rant about how 9mm bullets and 10mm bullets behave completely differently. Except my dad. He's more of a "my ranger has a 23 strength and could kill a hill giant in one swing. does *your* ranger have four 18s as ability scores? I didn't think so." Which is well and dandy, I suppose. I used to joke, back when I couldn't find a group, that I should join the navy just so I could finally get in a game. [/QUOTE]
