That's my story, and I'm sticking to it.
I went to GenCon in '85, the summer before my senior year. I bought "Ruins of Warsaw" and "Fire in the East" from the big GDW booth. I may have gotten one or another of their "Third World War" series there, too.
Someday, when my sons are old enough to enjoy it, too, I'll go again.
