Hi, I'm Chuck, from Atlanta Georgia. I'm still fairly new to Star Wars Miniatures, compared to a lot of other folks, as I've only been at it for less than a year. I played my first game on VASSAL the other night against Russel (he let me win) and my second game the following day against Bill (who beat me to a pulp). Both gentlemen were more than gracious and patient with my noobishness with Vassal, and both of them went out of their way to help me understand the program. Great couple of guys.
I've been promoting Star Wars Miniatures in my area as much as possible, since I started playing, including putting together
a website for all of the local star wars gamers to get news about upcoming events. As to how I got into Star Wars Miniatures, I wrote an article about that very funny (to me) story on the site. If you'd like to read it, you can find it
here.
