More to Come…
Keep coming back, because I will be updating and restoring bits of the old website when and as I can.

AWITS Founder, Webmaster, Chief Cook & Bottle-Washer
Good-bye, old friend!
Back in 2002, when MoH:AA was brand-new, we somehow managed to design and put together a website for the fledgling AWITS Community.
The homepage you see above was a table-based, FrontPage-dependent Frankenstein's Monster of an effort, and if you looked at some of the hacks and kludges in the code — well, it wasn't pretty.
Now that we've got a bit more experience with web design, we thought it was time to take another stab at it.
We hope you like the result!
Forums are what everyone used to do before they went nuts for blogs and Facebook.
While blogs and Facebook have their place, a forum offers a unique kind of give-and-take that lends itself to the formation of communities.
And that's what AWITS has always been: “a community, not a clan,” like it says at the very top of the page.
AWITS started in 2002 as a community that offered gaming for grown-ups, in the long-ago days of Medal of Honor: Allied Assault, that ground-breaking WW2 FPS. A bunch of like-minded players found each other in multiplayer servers, and even though MoH:AA was all keyboard, we found that we were sometimes doing “more chatting than splatting.” We knew we needed a place just to interact, and that's how the first AWITS Community Forums got their start.
But the old, free version 1.x of Invision Power Board was feeling its age, so it's time for a reboot: the new AWITS Community Forums is the result.
Running on PHPBB3.x, hosted by Wadiano Productions, we hope you'll check it out. If you like what you see, register and post.
we've managed to rendezvous with the following personnel at the new HQ:

anyone else from the old crew, tell 'em how to get here — they're welcome any time.
AWITS has offered gaming for grownups since before it was cool — AWITS was founded in October 2002!
This site is for grown-ups (and people who can act grown-up) who like gaming — particularly WW2 shooters.
If that's you — welcome!
