I'm hoping we can both follow in the Sister Flame school of games education.
My advice is: the family that plays together, geeks out together. It is how Sister Flame and I got started. Apart from CoH, she is also a huge boardgamer. Not just Ameritrash either, but a healthy love for Eurogames. So, if you little one wants to play a hundred games of Hi Ho Cherrio... you play each one of them without a word of protest and grin like a butcher's dog while do it. Cause one day, that leads to them trashing you at your favorite war game and then doing a "I beat daddy dance".

Oh, be sure to have four or five children so you have plenty of people for game night... or enough for a hockey line.

Iron Man is interesting I think, because there seems to be two kinds of readers and viewers of Iron Man. The first kind says "I wish I could have that suit." The second kind says "I wish I could build that suit."

I was the latter. Still am.
