Look at it out there! It’s dark and it’s only 5:00. But the bar is cozy, and it’s certainly airy with nobody but you in it. I hope you’re looking forward to a really nice weekend. I know I am! Have a seat and… Continue Reading “Friday Night Shots – Con Anticipation”

October 2023 Gaming

October was another month of decent gaming. I was worried that it was going to be a slow month, even though we did get a Sunday game day every week this month. But I shouldn’t have been concerned, as the last Sunday brought me… Continue Reading “October 2023 Gaming”

New to Me – October 2023

October was a great month for new to me games! That’s been a bit unusual lately, so I’m glad that this is back on the upswing. Of course, with every improvement there comes a downside. I played 5 new to me games in October,… Continue Reading “New to Me – October 2023”

Review – Twilight Struggle: Red Sea – Conflict in the Horn of Africa

Twilight Struggle is one of those long-standing classic wargames (oops…I don’t want to get into that argument) from GMT Games about the Cold War from 1945 to 1989.

It’s Friday again! Weekends are awesome, aren’t they? But I’m pleased that you spend your Friday night (or Saturday morning, maybe?) hanging out with me, having a drink or two (we do have water or pop!) and just commiserating about board games.
