A look back in time! On the table two years ago: A Most Fearful Sacrifice, from Flying Pig Games. Definitely a contender for the most beautiful map in wargaming. :)

What other board game maps are so good?

Clever ideas in board gaming. The tabbed marker sits under the unit, making the unit's status clear without covering the unit itself. Brilliant!

Not fun but fair to say that a Rootcanal is better than a Guadalcanal.

In the house! The gorgeous An Impossible War, from Bellica 3rd Generation. This game covers the First Carlist War in the North, in Spain, from 1834-1838. Great to see wargames coming out that cover these lesser known conflicts.

First Cube4Me kit of the year underway, sorting out the counters for Warfighter. I'm liking the new triple-width card trays for games with lots of playing cards.

A resounding victory for the British at the Battle of Freeman's Farm. They kept up the pressure after early successes. The Americans just could not hold ground. On to Oriskany next. :)
