A couple weeks ago, "Almoravid" in Brazil with good beer and my cousin. Successfully converted one more to the good side of the force! @volko.bsky.social @gmtgames.bsky.social I've said it before, will say it once again, I love how "medieval" this game feels! ⚔️

Yesterday: Almoravid, from @volko.bsky.social and @gmtgames.bsky.social , played with my cousin. This one was gifted to me for finishing my PhD. It holds a special place in my heart. Also, it just *feels* so medieval. Teenager-me would have died to play something like this 20 years ago!⚔️🛡️🐎🚩

What a nice afternoon exploring Colonial Twilight from Brian Train and @gmtgames.bsky.social , with my friend Luba. I always find it fascinating to see how plastic the COIN system can be. Bravo @volko.bsky.social 🙌

For those that missed, Maria now available for free over at Rally the Troops! Excellent 3 player game for anyone trying to approach historical simulation games! Thank you to Tor and the team and Histogame for creating this awesome game.

Tabletop people: Does anyone know of a machine/device that is able to perfectly cut squares into thick cardboard? See the image for inspiration -- it would work fine but seems to handle thin paper only. I want to be able to use counter sheets for prototyping that would otherwise go to waste 😄
