- What TV SHOWS are you watching?
- On a recommendation I watched the first episode of From on Amazon Prime. The star is a dude who was in Oz, Matrix III, 28 Weeks Later, etc. Anyway, the premise is there is a town that is somehow...
- Voidfall
- This thing is a handful. It's still solid for a detail oriented accountant brain. I went military and I like their deterministic combat system with military techs. Ultimately, by the back third of...
- What BOARD GAME(s) have you been playing?
- Got together with my friend, Brad, again. We started with Neuroshima Hex because he'd never played before. I gave him Hegemony, as I do with all first-timers. It's the army that can recover best from...
- Marvel Champions
- Back to playing two-handed solitaire. I knew that I wanted to play Wolverine/aggression and randomly paired him with Adam Warlock. I randomly determined that they would battle Absorbing Man with the ...
- What MOVIE(s) have you been....seeing? watching?
- If we're talking pre-1965 as the arbitrary date of "old", I think all of my favorites are by Akira Kurosawa and the Marx Brothers.
- Digital Cheats - Practising Against AIs
- Are we 100% sure this hasn't already happened? Friedemann Friese was a visionary...
- Announcing Cult of the Old
- One of my favourite games. I understand the grievances about the "skip a turn" mechanic, but you're wrong. ;) Your turn is selecting one of those role cards, and you always get to do that. If you...
- What BOARD GAMES are you TRADING?
- Made two trades today. The first was Revolt on Antares for the last Funkoverse set I didn't have, which is two of the Golden Girls (Sophia and Dorothy.) This was purely a case of what is getting...

- So who here washes, waxes, polishes their car regularly ? And who gets scratches, dings, dents in their cars repaired/repainted ? And in those who do, or don't, is there a price point of the car...
- Phantom Division Info
- Anything preposterous... well, a lot of the game is intentionally silly, my personal favorite part of the game is defusing Mercury Bombs by balancing a marble on a piece of cardboard while stacking...
- Ascending Empires: Zenith Edition
- No specific reason to mention this, but if one wanted to drop some cash on a neoprene-decked flicking game, one might wait 20 days. Theoretically.
- Wings for the Baron Review
- Picked up by GMT Games today for a reprint.
- Wings for the Baron in Review
- Boo Yah!!! Wings for the Baron has been picked up for version 3 by GMT Games! That kicks ass!!!
- What ROLE-PLAYING have you been doing?
- I thought my Call of Cthulhu campaign was off to great start, with perfect attendance all through the prologue adventure. We even recruited a couple of new players who were going to start the main...
