Interesting.

Stuff like this I really wish you could see what the design philosophy is - why is this better than PoG or BoP or whatever? What are they trying to do that hasn't been done already?

Have any of you wargamer types heard any details about this one? http://compassgames.com/index.php/preorders/the-lamps-are-going-out-world-war-1.html

It is coming out in a couple of weeks, and I am intrigued.

Well, it's Tim Allen. Galaxy Quest was great, mind.

WBC fortunately moved this very year.  Just in time.   :showoff:
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

While the Lancaster Host was by no means the new hottness, at least it was close to civilization. 

Nice piece of property, though.  Will be interesting how that eventually turns out.

I found out there's a Pathfinder CG mobile app, made by Obsidian. It plays exactly like the physical game, with an additional "random mission" game mode once you run out of campaign content. So far they have released half of the Runelords adventure path, and you can buy a season pass for €26, which I did.

I love Pathfinder but I have never been able to get a campaign going with my boardgame group, so this will work just fine. The app plays very well, actually, I think it's a great port.

It's only SP, but they have plans to release MP in the future.

Gentlemen, anyone tried Liberty or Death: The American Insurrection? I am very much on the fence about COIN but I had to indulge my 1740-1815 period fetich so ordered it today.

Nothing like shoehorning contemporary COunter-INsurgency concepts into an Age of Reason conventional conflict for Meeple Nation.  Indians, and why not.

So Falling Sky and the Briton game is/will be no good either?
