Twilight Struggle: Red Sea – Conflict in the Horn of Africa – From GMT Games

(Edit – 12/2/22) – This has now been charged which means it’s going to be shipping this month! Can’t wait to get my hands on it. We may all be stuck at home, either working from home (hopefully) or quarantined (if so, I hope… Continue Reading “Twilight Struggle: Red Sea – Conflict in the Horn of Africa – From GMT Games”

GMT’s Labyrinth: the War on Terror coming to Steam Early Access – Feb 27

What can be more exciting than a snow day in Vancouver where I don’t have to go to work? How about receiving big digital boardgame news in my Inbox? Yes, that’s right. GMT’s awesome-sounding (since I haven’t played the board game yet) Labyrinth: the War… Continue Reading “GMT’s Labyrinth: the War on Terror coming to Steam Early Access – Feb 27”

Top 10 Games Played in 2019 (5-1)

Whew! After telling you the first half of my Top 10 games played in 2019, I needed a break. Being surrounded by all that awesomeness can be tiring! But now I’m back with the bottom half of the list. These are the 5 best… Continue Reading “Top 10 Games Played in 2019 (5-1)”

Red Flag Over Paris from GMT Games

After looking at a couple of games from GMT that are getting close to reaching the magical level of the P500 track (it takes 500 orders for them to be “given the go,” so to speak), let’s get much more immediate. In this month’s… Continue Reading “Red Flag Over Paris from GMT Games”

1989: Dawn of Freedom from GMT Games

In what is quickly becoming a regular series, today’s post is about another GMT Games P500 game that I’ve ordered but it hasn’t quite made the cut yet. Previous attempts have born fruit! The Barracks Emperors has gained a whole 8 more orders! Last week’s… Continue Reading “1989: Dawn of Freedom from GMT Games”

Ancient Civilizations of the Middle East from GMT Games

Since I’m in full-blooded GMT Fanboy Mode (can I trademark that? I think I should trademark that) with trying to get The Barracks Emperors over the P500 line (and having successfully done so with Flashpoint: South China Sea and I will not listen to anybody… Continue Reading “Ancient Civilizations of the Middle East from GMT Games”

Review – Welcome to Centerville

If I were ever voted to city council or the urban planning commission for Vancouver, you know what I would hope to see? All of the people in the meeting rolling dice and making decisions based on that. I think that would be hilarious… Continue Reading “Review – Welcome to Centerville”

New to Me – August 2019

It’s September, and it’s hard to believe the school year’s about to start. Where has 2019 gone? August was a good month for new to me games, even if there were only three of them (I did playtest a couple at Dragonflight, but I’m… Continue Reading “New to Me – August 2019”

New to Me – June 2019

June was a very slow month for new to me games. Only two! And one expansion. Man, were they great ones, though. The expansion is to my favourite game of all time (at least for now) and I got another COIN game in! I… Continue Reading “New to Me – June 2019”
