September was a fairly lean month for gaming, especially new to me games. I’ve already talked about my September gaming in general, so how about the monthly chat about “new to me” games? I’m actually quite proud of the fact that this is my… Continue Reading “New to Me – September 2023”

Exciting news yesterday! (I would have posted it yesterday, but too many posts for a Friday already). Even though Terraforming Mars: Prelude 2 has not even seen a hint of Kickstarter yet (maybe later in the Summer is the last I heard), they’ve already… Continue Reading “Terraforming Mars – Automa Coming to Kickstarter Soon(ish)”

June has been a busy month, and not seemingly conducive to getting new board games played. We missed a Sunday game day (Father’s Day) and for two of the other three Sundays, our main “new games” guy wasn’t able to come. However, we maximized… Continue Reading “New to Me – June 2023”

With Father’s Day coming in June (here’s a link to the Father’s Day post I made in 2019, the first Father’s Day after my dad passed away), meaning that another Sunday Game Day was cancelled (or moved, but I chose to skip it), I… Continue Reading “June 2023 Gaming”

The previous wargame sets of the wonderful storage trays from Rails on Boards/Cube4Me have been fairly easy for even my non-spatial brain to put together.
