OK, maybe that is a fib, most wargamers love nothing better, other than gaming, than to indulge in pointless arguments over rules interpretations, but that is all the other wargamers, not you, the wargamer able to laugh at himself and the target audience of this slim vollume of collected Larry Leadhead cartoons.
Larry Leadhead is the cartoon strip about that "other gamer" in all of us. The one whose brilliant and insightful tactics are betrayed by his dice, who is never satisfied with the mountain of lead he already has, but has to go and get a small foothill or two more and who has to juggle family expenses against the demanding mistress that is his hobby.
First published on the Internet and made freely available as a weekly linked graphic for many sites such as TheMiniaturesPage.com, this is the first print collection of the cartoon, bount together in an A5 format like the fanzines of old.
Messrs Hamm and Hotz have done a good job of capturing the pains and tribulations of the gamer, tha raised hopes and the cruelty inflicted by heartless fate /(you can tell my own dice weren't behaving last weekend) as exemplified in one strip where Larry answers the question "What are you doing?" with the observation that he is destroying the Russian Army. Naturally it is his side that is playing the Russians.
The art is crisp, you get 140 cartoon strips for the price, it's funny and is well worth it. Of course, for the same price you could buy that Joseph Stalin II tank you have had your eye on, so ......
