It’s the last Friday before Christmas and all through the malls, too many creatures were stirring, so much so that I would rather carve Shem Phillips’ initials into my hand with a penknife than go shopping. I think that’s how that old Christmas poem… Continue Reading “Friday Night Shots – Catch Up Mechanisms”

October was a great month for new to me games! That’s been a bit unusual lately, so I’m glad that this is back on the upswing. Of course, with every improvement there comes a downside. I played 5 new to me games in October,… Continue Reading “New to Me – October 2023”

Twilight Struggle is one of those long-standing classic wargames (oops…I don’t want to get into that argument) from GMT Games about the Cold War from 1945 to 1989. It’s long, it’s 2-player, but its gameplay has stood the test of time to make it… Continue Reading “Review – Twilight Struggle: Red Sea – Conflict in the Horn of Africa”

(Edit: 4/18/23) This was not announced in this month’s newsletter, so I’m assuming it will be in the May one. Interesting that it’s already on BGG and a blogger is talking about it, though (not me, the blogger that GMT RT’d) Lots of GMT… Continue Reading “Twilight Struggle: South Asian Monsoon Coming From GMT in 2024”

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”

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 – 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”
