Storm Above the Reich – After Action Report – Mission #11
Four missions into the second season of the Staffel Roy campaign in Storm Above the Reich and things aren’t looking that rosy. Victory points are few and far between. I need 30 VP to “not lose” and I’m not that close with only 7.… Continue Reading “Storm Above the Reich – After Action Report – Mission #11”

Review – This Didn’t Happen
One of the joys of being a games blogger is when you get to see a game in it’s nascent form, when while it may be ready to be presented to the world, it really hasn’t been yet. So when designer John Heffernan reached… Continue Reading “Review – This Didn’t Happen”
Blog in Review – 2021
As much as 2020 sucked for long periods of time (mainly due to COVID and the lockdowns/health issues that dominated the world), 2021 was predicted to be a year where things would start looking up. Vaccines for COVID were becoming available and people could… Continue Reading “Blog in Review – 2021”

But North Star is never willing to sit on their hands and revel in the joy of a successful app. After a kind… Continue Reading “App Review – Evolution: Climate (With a Little Evolution Thrown In)”
Storm Above the Reich – After Action Report – Mission #10
We are now three missions into the Staffel Roy campaign for Storm Above the Reich and things aren’t really progressing very well. The “mid-1943” campaign requires 30 victory points (VP) to “not lose” and I’m at a total of 5 in 3 missions. I… Continue Reading “Storm Above the Reich – After Action Report – Mission #10”
App Review – Maracaibo
Have you ever wanted to just get slammed upside the head repeatedly by a deck of cards? No, just me? Well, it’s a good thing that you probably don’t suck at Maracaibo as much as I do, so you’ll probably actually enjoy not having… Continue Reading “App Review – Maracaibo”
Storm Above the Reich – After Action Report – Mission #9
Two missions into the second season of my Storm Above the Reich campaign and things aren’t going the greatest. With 30 VPs required to “not lose” and me having 3 VP in 2 missions, things have to change for the better. Is that going… Continue Reading “Storm Above the Reich – After Action Report – Mission #9”

Another month, another game of Combat Commander. This is my monthly game played as part of the Combat Commander ladder run by the funny and witty Patrick Pence (of the awesome Youtube Channel Patrick’s Tactics & Tutorials). How do I know he’s funny and… Continue Reading “Combat Commander – After Action Report – Scenario 51 – The Uneasy Wait”
