I guess a lot of us fall into this realm. My first wargame was _Panzer
Leader_, the same system (pretty much) in the Western theatre. I
eventually picked up a used version of Panzerblitz.
My first miniatures games were with unpainted Airfix plastic HO models
using a variant of the rules found in Grant or Featherstone. I wish I
had those books, but I borrowed them from the library and they are very
hard to find now.
My first skirmish was with 1/32 scale Airfix plastics using rules I got
from the magazine Wargamer's Digest. I still have the magazines, and the
figures, somewhere in my storage locker.
*sigh* I wish there was someone local I could play with. I need a minis
fix, bad.
