Storm Above the Reich – After Action Report – Mission #21
Hello! C’mon in. I know it’s been a while, but it’s time for another tale from my Storm Above the Reich campaign. We’re only a few missions into the “Late ’43” season of the campaign. Things were looking good but last mission kind of… Continue Reading “Storm Above the Reich – After Action Report – Mission #21”
Combat Commander – After Action Report – Scenario #30 – Red Skies at Night
It’s August, and time for another tale from the Combat Commander ladder (yes, I stole that from the preeminent Patrick Pence, head of the Combat Commander ladder and all around great guy). I’m into my second year on the ladder now and it’s been… Continue Reading “Combat Commander – After Action Report – Scenario #30 – Red Skies at Night”

Storm Above the Reich – After Action Report – Mission #20
Only a few missions into my “Late 43” season of Storm Above the Reich, things seem to be going swimmingly.

My Year in Gaming – So Far
Just a fun little Sunday night post to share with you my year in gaming so far. Little surprise that Jump Drive is #1 as it’s such a quick game. I even have a review of it posting tomorrow! The large number of Space… Continue Reading “My Year in Gaming – So Far”
Combat Commander – After Action Report – Scenario #14 – At the Crossroads
After losing my first anniversary Combat Commander ladder game last month, I was really hoping that July’s scenario would go well for me. I was perilously close to reaching .500 level in my Win-Loss ratio, so that was another consideration for this month! What… Continue Reading “Combat Commander – After Action Report – Scenario #14 – At the Crossroads”
Combat Commander – After Action Report – Scenario #9 – Rush to Contact
Otherwise known as “the ballad of Lieutenant Esparza”. It’s time for yet another tale from the Combat Commander ladder.

Storm Above the Reich – After Action Report – Mission #19
Success is not something I’m used to. Things don’t usually go so good for me. But this 1943 Late season of Storm Above the Reich is actually going pretty well after two missions. This is so unlike me! Is it possible that maybe I’m… Continue Reading “Storm Above the Reich – After Action Report – Mission #19”
Combat Commander – After Action Report – Scenario #119 – Sky Fall
It’s my one year anniversary on the Combat Commander ladder! Yes, in May 2021, I played my first game on the ladder tournament where you play against another ladder participant and try to increase your ranking to the top spot. The ladder tournament, led… Continue Reading “Combat Commander – After Action Report – Scenario #119 – Sky Fall”
Storm Above the Reich – After Action Report – Mission #18
There’s something about campaigns that keeps bringing a game to the table. Especially if everybody involved is having fun. In a solo game, the only person you need to worry about is yourself so it’s a lot easier. And I’m enjoying the Staffel Roy… Continue Reading “Storm Above the Reich – After Action Report – Mission #18”
