After Christmas Troll & Toad Newsletter

Welcome to the Troll and Toad Newsletter,

Well, Christmas has came and went once again. The tree (if you haven't took it down already) is standing present less and naked from the bottom branches to the floor. Most of the family have left or are preparing for their trip back home, whether it be an hour away or across country.

Now your only thing left to do is sit back and await the brand new year and where else better to do so than right in front of the trusty ole' computer! Or perhaps in front of that brand new one you got from that jolly old man always dressed in red...your crazy Uncle Pete.

Either way, this pass year has flew right on by to me with plenty of up's and down's. This year is sure to be similar, only hopefully with more up's than down's. Unless one of the "down's" is getting to go down to Cancun, Mexico!!! Ariba! *clears throat and sits back down in office chair*...Any ways, with all hopes for a safe and happy New Year go forth and see what awaits each and all of you in 2009!

Board Games

In the pre-Napoleonic era of war-fare a country rises up against it's Crowned mother land to become anew and free. It's creators will forge a government by the people and for the people through the flash and fire of a flintlock musket.

In Flintlock: Black Powder, Cold Steel Volume I: Carolina Rebels, four different North and South Carolina battles are focused upon from the 18th century linear warfare of the Revolutionary War. Each scenario that almost contains 1 or 2 thousand men, are as follows:

The Battle of Camden, August 17, 1780: Major General Horatio Gates leads an attack on the outnumbered Lieutenant General Lord Charles Cornwallis at about 6 miles North of Camden, South Carolina. There General Gates loses the battle due to the unordered retreat of the spear heading rebel militia. Which in return gives the British a fantastic win and the removal of Major General Gates's control of the Southern Theatre in the Revolution.

The Battle of Cowpens, January 17, 1781: Under the daring step of diving his armies, American commander Nathanael Greene orders Brigadier General Daniel Morgan to take his troops and detach from the main patriot force to do battle against the bold and brutal Colonel Banastre Tarleton and his dragoon force. Colonel Tarleton has the reputation of charging boldly into battle outnumbered and actually making sweeping wins. (For all of you war movie buffs and fans of good stuff, Colonel William Tavington from The Patriot is based off the real Colonel Tarleton!) Using masterful battle tactics Gen. Daniel Morgan defeated Colonel Tarleton at his on game nearly destroying his entire force and making him retreat with only 250 men.

Battle of Guilford Courthouse, March 15, 1781:Commander Nathanial Greene charges the outnumbered Lord Cornwallis with a 4,400 man force to Cornwallis's 1,900. The battle, lasting only 90 minutes, was a technical win for the British forces with over a quarter of their men dead and/or missing to show for it. British Whig Party leader Charles Fox was quoted for saying "Another such victory would ruin the British Army!" soon after hearing of the "win".

The Battle of Hobkirk’s Hill, April 25th, 1781: The Marylanders of Commander Greene's forces fail to withhold advancements against the smaller numbered but better disciplined army of Lord Rawdon.

Video Games

You know, it being after Christmas and all I get to sit back and thinking about all of my old gifts from the past. All the gadgets and game systems from yester year that used to make me think that technology was never gonna get any better than that. Boy was I wrong! But even with all of these new games that make you think that you are watching a sports game or movie on t.v.I still have a hugh spot in my heart for the old schoolers like Sega Master System and Nintendo.

Speaking of Nintendo games, we will be receiving in a huge load of Gameboy and Gameboy Color game cartridges over the couple of weeks! Multiple titles and unknown amounts of how many of each, so be sure to keep tabs of the progress for all of you that still own a classic Gameboy and Gameboy Color!
