Hey everybody! It’s Friday, and it’s two Fridays since our last visit to the bar. Sorry for missing last week. Things got away from me a little bit and I just wasn’t in the correct headspace to write. However, I have my Captain Jack… Continue Reading “Friday Night Shots – Table Talk”
This is almost becoming a regular thing. Which is great! My May opponent for the Combat Commander ladder, Ted W, was so fun to play against that we played once again in June.

Like other German fighter pilots! How to play this… Continue Reading “Aces of Valor After Action Report – British Short Campaign – Mission 2”
Having already used the excellent Cube4Me plastic storage trays for the first two volumes of The Last One Hundred Yards (from GMT Games), it was a no-brainer that when I finally had some extra trays, I would create a set for the third volume,… Continue Reading “The Last Hundred Yards (Volume 3) – The Solomon Islands – Storage Solution With Rails on Boards”
