I think that net.games.board is more general, and more appropriate. Net.games.wargames is restrictive, i.e. it eliminates games like Starforce, StarFleetBattles, Car Wars, and the like, all of which are boardgames that are interesting to most of the same people. Those of you who wish to discuss "War in the Pacific" may do so by mail, I think... The net isn't big enough for the board! Most, if not all, of the above game names are somebody's trademark. -- SUPPORT SECULAR TEDDY-BEAR-ISM. "I see a dark cloud, On the horizon,..." (ihnp4/allegra)!alice!jj
