Happy Friday! I wasn’t sure what would be happening this week. I haven’t really felt in the mood to write much, which is why nothing appeared until my Cat in the Box review earlier today. But enough about writing funks. You’re not here to… Continue Reading “Friday Night shots – House Rules”

It’s Friday again! That was fast (that could be because I’m not writing this on Friday, since I’m actually out playing games tonight!) Grab a seat, and I hope you don’t mind the Delerium playing on the speakers. The volume’s not high. Can I… Continue Reading “Friday Night Shots – One And Done Games”

Welcome to Friday night! It’s the weekend, hopefully you’ve got something good planned. Pull up a chair, and let’s talk about some stuff. So, what is a wargame? No, no no, don’t worry your pretty heart about that. I’m not actually asking you that… Continue Reading “Friday Night Shots – Never-Ending Arguments”

It’s Friday. A long week is finished and it’s time to sit back, relax, have some good food and a drink of some kind (whatever kind you like). There’s plenty of soft music in the background too. This isn’t so much of an issue… Continue Reading “Friday Night Shots – Expansions: Yea or Nay?”

Hey there. It’s Friday night, the Canadian Club is flowing just a little bit, and it’s time for a little light-hearted discussion about the news of the day. No, not the news that apparently there could be water under the ice on some of… Continue Reading “Friday Night Shots – What Game Mechanism Do You Hate?”

We’re back to Canadian Club after some Crown Royal over the last week or two. That’s not bad, of course. It’s a mainstay! But maybe that’s why I’m thinking about asymmetry in boardgames for this Friday Night Shot. Or maybe not. Actually, the reason… Continue Reading “Friday Night Shots – Asymmetry in Games”
