New to Me – September 2023
Posted on October 3, 2023 by whovian223
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”

August 2023 Gaming
Posted on September 1, 2023 by whovian223
It’s hard to believe August is over and we’re in September now! August was primed to be a big gaming month but it kind of sputtered with me getting sick. Missing a Sunday probably took 2-3 games (or at least plays) away from my… Continue Reading “August 2023 Gaming”
Highlights From the June GMT Update
Posted on June 23, 2023 by whovian223
It’s June and I just realized today that I haven’t done a GMT highlights post in a while. I’m always a bit torn because I’m not truly a wargamer (at least not much of one), so a lot of the “oh, that looks neat!”… Continue Reading “Highlights From the June GMT Update”

Highlights from the March 2023 GMT Update
Posted on March 23, 2023 by whovian223
It’s been a couple of months since my “highlights” post for the monthly GMT Update, though that is mostly because the best parts of the February update made their own posts. This month had some great stuff and other cool updates in it, so… Continue Reading “Highlights from the March 2023 GMT Update”

Highlights From the January 2023 GMT Games Update
Posted on January 19, 2023 by whovian223
It’s been a few months since my lost post about the monthly GMT Update! That’s not GMT’s fault. They do it monthly. I just haven’t had a lot to say about the more recent ones. At least nothing that really seemed blogworthy. How many… Continue Reading “Highlights From the January 2023 GMT Games Update”

October 2021 Monthly Update from GMT Games
Posted on October 25, 2021 by whovian223
It’s been since June that one of my favourite blogs, the Players’ Aid, has had a post about the monthly GMT Games update. I’ve missed it (along with all of their other posts). Life happens, I know. Both Grant and Alexander have been extremely… Continue Reading “October 2021 Monthly Update from GMT Games”

(Edit – 8/29/20) – This has now made the cut! Good to hear this will begin production soon. In another quest to get a cool-looking GMT game over the P500 hump, I have to write about The Barracks Emperors. For those of you who… Continue Reading “The Barracks Emperors from GMT Games”
