Sometimes we do run out of a printed product that is already assembled (SFB modules or FC expansions, especially). Mike then lets Leanna know that more need to be printed and bound. :) Luckily we have everything we need to do that.

Got everything.

I have "punching out counter" fatigue and I'm not even halfway through.

I would have left it til later but several of the 1 inch counters popped out and I figured now was as good a time as any and dang.

I think SFB had more when I did this with SFB, though.

if you think SFB had a lot of counters, try punching out Federation and Empire...i didnt want to see a counter again after that, and i think i lost my fingerprints.

I haven't bought any F&E since 1995, and I don't think I punched out any counters before it ended up in storage. I was a bit overwhelmed by the sheer scale.

Rookies...

:lol:

I have over 45K of them right now... all cut by X-acto knife... never punched...
All have been 'corner-rounded'...
\and all are stored, by individual ship type... not class, but type... in 18 compartment organizers.

And I know two others with over 60K F&E counters each.

I'm not a rookie, I just haven't played wargames in ages.

Don't feel like Tony was calling you a rookie.

He's just reveling in his "cardboard addiction". Murfreesboro is the home of half of ADB's sales, or so I've heard. Nobody can compare to their level.

It was late or I would have answered with better humor.

And I totally understand the cardboard addiction. Why just the other day I was cutting up Ogre countersheets.

Ogre DE...
My newest cardboard addiction.
I've acquired copies of all the 'sponsored' counter-sheets, as well as two full sets of Ogre Kickstarter edition.
Then just to be 'over the top'... I colored the edges of all the cardstock counters with a black Sharpie before assembly. and glued all the units together with Elmer's carpenters glue, to prevent undesired dis-assembly.

Now, to find a reason to play a scenario big enough to require all the maps and all the Ogres from both sets...

I ordered two sets of the Kickstarter OGRE 6E version, during the campaign.

I severely underestimated just how crazy Steve Jackson was going to go with the unit count in the thing. With the add-on sponsored sheets I bought, there was MORE than enough variety for me.

So, I let my second (unopened) copy go and sold it at-cost to my friendly (almost) local gaming store. They found a new home for it within a week, which was cool.

I was hoping to get to meet it's new owner at the "Play OGRE Day" event there, tomorrow, but unfortunately I'll be doing overtime at work.
