Jonsaw, you got it wrong
Authored by: johnsawyercjs on Aug 27, '04 05:21:14AM

Well, it was largely watching the Lux animations of nuclear bombs going off in other countries and imagining it was funny that got to me. I grew up during the 60s and 70s when a lot of people were still worried that this could actually happen. I was always optimistic it wouldn't, and that it was limited to movies and books, and I guess I was "proven" right, but I still breathed a sigh of relief when the Soviet Union went under, and I still do every now and then. It really was a serious deal--both the Soviets and the US military were really nuts about it. I like strategy games, but years of exposure to the nuclear worry made me dislike the ones that involve domination and destruction.

Other board layouts sound good

Forgot to add: if Lux has other maps that don't involve tossing bombs, etc., that sounds cool. Maybe I'll check it out.
