When Gene's name comes up with T2K that is ALWAYS mentioned.

Mmmmm... I’m sorry. Anyway, it seems that your friend left to you a lot of good gaming memories. Your post makes me think about the secret satisfaction that you feel, as GM, when the group players spontaneously begin to chat about one particular roleplaying session you have refereed.

His reference library was awesome as well as his model collection. He as also an avid firearms and militaria collector, giving the gunshow circuit a go.

In the past we played a few GDW Command Decision scenarios. We were always short of miniatures, of course. I was the only one that liked miniature modeling, but my primary interest was about the game, not the plastic soldiers and vehicles. So, we always ended up gaming with a handful of good-looking miniatures and a load of color cardboard counters with the thing they represent annotated in one of the sides and the facing of the unit pointed by an arrow. I’m afraid it was not a very impressive diorama…
