Expansion Review – Smash Up: What Were We Thinking?
Another day, another Smash Up expansion. This is becoming almost a weekly thing! Or maybe it just seems that way. Anyway, with my latest expansion acquisition (not the latest expansion period, since I am nothing if not eclectic (Editor: You mean random, right?) in… Continue Reading “Expansion Review – Smash Up: What Were We Thinking?”

Flashpoint South China Sea – Let’s Get This Produced!
Just a quick post is all I have time for on this sunny Monday. Lately I have been on a bit of a GMT Games kick, mainly starting with Time of Crisis. It’s not so much the wargames or the COIN games, because I… Continue Reading “Flashpoint South China Sea – Let’s Get This Produced!”
New to Me – April 2018

If I keep on getting and reviewing Smash Up expansions, I’m going to have to come up with some creative openings that don’t all sound the same. Maybe make up some meta joke that will carry throughout the reviews? Not sure on that one.… Continue Reading “Expansion Review – Smash Up: Cease and Desist”
New to Me – March 2018

Expansion Review – Smash Up: Science Fiction Double Feature
As I’ve stated a few times before, Smash Up and I have a bit of a checked history. I actually almost traded it away because I found it fiddly and didn’t really care for it. Then I played it again and something just clicked.… Continue Reading “Expansion Review – Smash Up: Science Fiction Double Feature”
Review – The Fox in the Forest
I’m a big fan of trick-taking games, most especially the wonderful game Diamonds. But what happens when you’re sitting there with only one person, trying to figure out what game to play? You’re both fans of trick-taking games, but there are only two of… Continue Reading “Review – The Fox in the Forest”
