A Gaming Life
Welcome to the new year! Sorry that the bar was closed last week, but I was off doing something much more fun than trying to figure out what I wanted to write about that week. With last week also full of other posts, I… Continue Reading “Friday Night Shots – Game Promos – Yea or Nay?”
It’s a brand new year! And as I mentioned yesterday, I plan to continue blogging at the pace that I kept up last year. Maybe even more, though I’m not sure if that would kill me or not. After the blog review yesterday, you… Continue Reading “December 2023 Gaming”
It’s Monday and 2024 is upon us, almost sneaking up on us like a wily coyote hunting a roadrunner. As is my tradition over the past 4 years or so, I wanted to do an update on how this blog, and my gaming, is… Continue Reading “Blog in Review – 2023”

It’s another Friday night and you’ve chosen to spend a few minutes with me. I love that! Thank you. Ok, it could be Saturday morning when you’re reading this, or it could be December 22, 2025. Who knows? Pull up a chair in front… Continue Reading “Friday Night Shots – How Much Luck is Too Much Luck?”
Welcome to another tale of warfare and adventure on the Combat Commander ladder, which affords me the opportunity to play one of my favourite games with a bunch of really cool people. The ladder is run by the ineffable Patrick Pence, he of Patrick’s… Continue Reading “Combat Commander – After Action Report – Scenario 44 – Stalingrad of the North”
