Who Wants a Fragrant Clock? – Inventors of the South Tigris Review
Necessity is the mother of invention, but is it the mother of a game about inventing things? Things to ponder. That’s what I am always thinking when I play Inventors of the South Tigris, the latest (and last) of the South Tigris trilogy of… Continue Reading “Who Wants a Fragrant Clock? – Inventors of the South Tigris Review”
This is a Prince-Free Bash – Rebel Princess Review
I’ve been on a trick-taking tear recently, though that’s not necessarily reflected in my reviews (getting them played is another thing). I have been buying a bunch of them, though. One of them that I’ve actually played enough to review recently is a rather… Continue Reading “This is a Prince-Free Bash – Rebel Princess Review”

No emptying of baggies, and then wondering which baggy each thing should go in when you’re putting stuff… Continue Reading “Rock Hard 1977 – Storage Solution from Folded Space”
Combat Commander After Action Report – Supplemental No. 5 – Tito’s Trick
At the end of December, between Christmas and New Year’s, I was off of work (that’s one of the lucky perks of my job). Seemed like a perfect time to get some extra Combat Commander games in! Ladder Rules Guru Noel graciously agreed to… Continue Reading “Combat Commander After Action Report – Supplemental No. 5 – Tito’s Trick”
New to Me – December 2024
It’s a new year, and coming up on my 8th blog anniversary in March! One thing I forgot to mention in yesterday’s Blog in Review post was the fact that, in those 8 years (or at least since I started, which I think was… Continue Reading “New to Me – December 2024”
Blog in Review – 2024
Happy New Year, everybody! I hope you had a safe and happy New Year’s Eve celebration last night, or at least just spent the changeover with your loved ones. Some of you may even have been asleep! As I did last year and for… Continue Reading “Blog in Review – 2024”
December 2024 Gaming
There was no way December was going to top November, what with Bottoscon and all. But I did want to get a good variety of games in, and I think I did a pretty good job with that! December was a weird month, though.… Continue Reading “December 2024 Gaming”
