Assigning characteristics based on tabletop performance

A false analogy at that in that 'real' wargamers know that the Old Guard didn't fail, they weren't committed.

It was the Middle Guard that did all the failing.

It was the failure to commit that was the issue Jim. Too precious to be risked. Often held back for a future their army didn't have

Of course, the female member of the group would assure us that failure to commit by men was not a new experience for her

So purely Boneys fault then, the Old Guard should be blameless.

I don't have access to a female member of the group so couldn't possibly comment.
