    Default Ahoy Mates

    Greetings from Toronto, Canada.

    I am branching out from my Wings Of Glory interests into Sails Of Glory!

    May the winds be at our backs.

    P.S.
    Are there any fellow Canadians on this forum?

    Hi Eric ... yes, I am on the Aerodrome. It's a great forum as I am sure this one is too.

    Welcome aboard! I'm from Seattle, but my gal's a Torontonian, so maybe someday if I can ever find my way back there (and if I can get her into the game, she sounds open but isn't going to take the plunge without me being there with her) we might be able to put something together.

    Kenji, I am curious about your avatar and profile picture. I might have missed or forgotten if you discussed the background to your images, but would you mind sharing?

    Hi Eric,

    Thank you for your interest about my avatar and profile pictures.

    I chose these representations because of my interest in the Samurai Feudal Age, and in particular, the Warrior Code of Bushido (i.e. Justice, Courage, Mercy, Politeness, Honesty, Honour, Loyalty, Self-Control).

    I use these emblems to represent my digital identity on the internet and I hope that in some small way I can live up to the positive aspects of this Warrior Sect :-)

    I am also very fond of that period's artwork.

    Interesting. Thanks.

    I teach on virtues in all my ethics classes, requiring the students to do weekly exercises on cultivating them. They have had some amazing experiences.

    I need to research the Code you mentioned.

    Have you ever played the GMT game Samurai?

    Here is a mini I have in the cart for Pathfinder: http://www.darkswordminiatures.com/s...e-samurai.html

    Eric,

    That is an amazing miniature figure that you shared with me, thanks!

    Unfortunately I have never played any Samurai wargames and I am not familiar with the GMT game that you mentioned.

    I hope your research is successful.

    :-)
