On the road to another playtest of Symphony of Destruction. Some tidying up of air rules while I’m on the flight and a few other loose ends. Should be a productive week in Ohio.

Pushing counters in 2 days! 😎

Well it’s a three day weekend! What am I doing? Working on 10K Games Newsletter #5, which should drop Monday or Tuesday to our subscribers. My Boston Terrier helpers are here as well.

Sunny and warm - should be productive.

When you think you're done with counter layout edits, the road goes ever on. The gutters have come to a head and I have had to re-tune again. We are pushing the limits but I'm confident in our new printer!

Just finished Symphony of Destruction map #6 of 13. It was very dense terrain wise. A lot of challenges solved by modifying hexagons a little, thinking outside the box and being creative. #cartography #wargames #hexandcounter #tabletopgaming #maps #WW2 #10kgames #wargaming
