Storm Above the Reich – After Action Report – Mission #14

After a long break (sorry about that), it’s time to get back to the Staffel Roy campaign for Storm Above the Reich, the solo game from GMT Games where you are in charge of a “Staffel” (essentially a squadron) of German fighters tasked with… Continue Reading “Storm Above the Reich – After Action Report – Mission #14”

Top 25 Games Played of All Time – 2022 Edition (#5-1)

Wow. I was not expecting to take a 2-week break from the blog. I’m learning to listen to my heart and brain and just take breaks when I need to, and this last two weeks, I just haven’t felt like blogging. Whenever I thought… Continue Reading “Top 25 Games Played of All Time – 2022 Edition (#5-1)”

Combat Commander – After Action Report – Scenario 75 – Sturmgruppe Beton

It’s February and I actually did an early game in our Combat Commander ladder, led by the superlative Patrick Pence, the man behind the Patrick’s Tactics & Tutorials Youtube channel. The ladder has been a fun way to play Combat Commander live once a… Continue Reading “Combat Commander – After Action Report – Scenario 75 – Sturmgruppe Beton”

Storm Above the Reich – After Action Report – Mission #13

After doing my AAR for my Combat Commander ladder game last week, I decided to take the week off from my Storm Above the Reich campaign, just so you don’t think I post nothing but After Action Reports. Six missions into the second season… Continue Reading “Storm Above the Reich – After Action Report – Mission #13”

Combat Commander – After Action Report – Scenario 65 – Road Trip

It’s time for another After Action Report for Combat Commander ladder run by the incomparable Patrick Pence (he of Patrick’s Tactics & Tutorials Youtube channel)!

Top 25 Games Played of All Time – 2022 Edition (25-21)

With the close of the year 2021, I have actually played 422 games since I really started playing boardgames in 2012. Since my “Top 25 Games Played of All Time” series in 2019 was predicated on my having played almost 300 games, I thought… Continue Reading “Top 25 Games Played of All Time – 2022 Edition (25-21)”

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”

It’s month three of doing of doing what the fabulous wargaming blog, The Players’ Aid, have habitually been doing for a long while now: an analysis of the monthly update from GMT Games!

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”
