Expansion Review – Shards of Infinity: Into the Horizon
I’ve playing a ton of the Shards of Infinity app and I finally played the card game last year at Dice Tower West. I liked it so much that I bought it during the pandemic lockdown for me and the wife to play. It… Continue Reading “Expansion Review – Shards of Infinity: Into the Horizon”
Combat Commander – After Action Report – Scenario M6 – Breakout

App Review – Oceans

Storm Above the Reich – After Action Report – Missions #1 & #2
Storm Above the Reich is a solo game (it can be played 2-players cooperatively, but why would you?) where you are leading a squadron of German Luftwaffe fighters against B-24 bombers who are attempting to bomb their targets. In the 1943 seasons, this is… Continue Reading “Storm Above the Reich – After Action Report – Missions #1 & #2”
Friday Night Shots – Are Boardgame Playthroughs Boring? Or Awesome?
It’s Friday and the vodka is flowing yet again. What does that mean? That my liver will be complaining for a while? That is true, but it also means it’s time for another edition of Friday Night Shots! I wasn’t actually sure what I… Continue Reading “Friday Night Shots – Are Boardgame Playthroughs Boring?

(Edit – 12/14/21: I completely forgot to update this to say that the Steel Police faction is now out. Free if you had it in the app before! Now there are 5 factions to choose from) The Neuroshima Hex app has been around for… Continue Reading “App Review – Neuroshima Hex by Portal Games”
