TA

Long ago, and very far from here, my husband was introduced to a game called Total Annihilation, or TA. When we were in school at Moscow, ID, he and a friend name David used to play quite often. He and David would stay up late, jawing back and forth as they played, making armies of robots to destroy one another.

Well, this friend happens to live near to us, and we went to see them for New Year's. David's sons are also TA fans, and have two computers, so while Shane and I visited with David and his wife, the boys played TA. Josh and Luke loved it. They have played before, but never for that long. They were bugging Shane all the way home to set up TA on our computer so they could play. Shane actually already had it, so they started to play. The computer game led to the legos, which led to these pictures:


There are commanders, robots, planes, ultimate Krogoths; you name it, they tried to make it. There are so many things that I can't even remember all their names. They made TA armies to play with when they couldn't play it on the computer. It was so fun to see their creativity flow. I wish I were that creative.
