Is there a thread for the Panzerleader/3R/1776's of ages past? Or is it all stratego now?

The threads for any out of print games belong here. Since AH no longer procudes them, any questions/info/inquires go in this section (OOP and CD-ROM games) of the forums. Occasionally they make their way to other sections of the forums, but "technically" they belong here.
I hope none of the games you mentioned are categorized by AH/Hasbro as Stratego...it would be an insult to those games.

Stratego is great for 8 year olds who want more than checkers, aren't up to serious chess, and don't have the patience or knowledge base for Afrika Korps, Air Assault on Crete, or Anzio. I loved Stratego, but I'm not 8 anymore.
I'm a mod at a yahoo group, and I'm thinking about running a PB tournament, so I wrote the Hasbro guys and said "Hey, join to play your old classic!" and they said, no can do, join our boards instead. So i did, 'cause i'm that kinda guy. But I'm sad to see that this is the section for the classics. Labeling it OOP seems like condesention.
But at least there's a place.
So who else plays the classics around here?
