When I last spoke with GMT Games’ Gene Billingsley, he said that he had some honorable mentions that were overlooked when we talked about the games before 2014 that built GMT. Here are his honorable mentions, on Legendary Tactics. @gmtgames

Combat Commander – After Action Report – Scenario M8 – Closing Outer Camp

Some months the luck gods strike you down, and some months the luck gods...well, don't. They still needle you some, but maybe they decide to strike somebody else down instead? That's Combat Commander in a nutshell! Yes, it's time for another adventure from the Combat Commander ladder (trademark: Patrick), that monthly tournament of one of the greatest games out there.

Fin du tour 5 sur ma partie de For the people de @gmtgames.bsky.social
Un tour 5 bien tendu, j'ai mène de grandes manœuvres pour tenter de faire tomber Richmond, il s'en est fallu de peu, mais une interception réussie à permis à mon adversaire de s'en sortir et de libérer la pression 1/2

Carte du jeu For the people de notre partie. Le tour 6 va débuter, la situation est pour le moment légèrement favorable au sud, il faut dire qu'il a de très bon généraux qu'il peut activer facilement. Mais rien n'est perdu pour mon nord !
