Having a poll at a WWI aviation site that includes one WWI aviation game and a bunch of other nonrelated games isn't a poll at all. Why didn't you include something a little closer to DP as far as genre goes - like Wings of War? Personally I find WoW to be every bit as fun as DP. Plus the fact I can play the game solo or with only one other person means I can play a LOT more games than I ever could with DP. These days DP sits on my shelf gathering dust while Wings of War and it's great minis are on my game table right now in the heat of battle.

Well, I the only WW1 game I have heard of is DP.
I guess I will just delete this.

There are lots of WWI games out there. Don't let anyone poo-poo your thread. It doesn't have to be scientific... it has to be fun.  |

I think it's cool that Garrett (who's 12) would choose Dawn Patrol over all those other games. It's a testimony to the fact that this game still has broad appeal to younger audiences. To Kirk, et al... Garrett was posting a poll based on the games that he in his young life has had exposure to. We've never played Wings of War.
Garrett is really sincere and excited about DP, far more even than his brother Wayne. And Wayne is an Armistice Day and Red Baron winner who said recently that if the Indy Squadron championship and a Star Wars mini tournament happened on the same day he's not sure which he would attend. Even though they have Star Wars tourneys once every month and the Armistice Day is once a year. So Garrett having such a high interest in the game is a good thing to me.

There are several people who play our DP games regularly who would probably choose some of the other games on that poll, so I don't see the big deal. I think Garrett was just trying to let on how much he enjoys the game.

Unfortunately I didn't know the generator of the poll was 12. If I were to think like my son, he'd probably choose a game of Yu-Gi-Oh over all others. He's never played Dawn Patrol but does enjoy Wings of War.
