When I’m designing I don’t get to play much. As the Army of the Potomac is in final production today is the day I can play for fun and insight. Fair Oaks is a one day (2 turn) historical training scenario that takes 30m to play. After I play it a dozen times or so today I over to the Seven Days.

Seven years today that I am, at long last, fully and openly myself. Seven extraordinary years bracketed by the releases of my first game, Pendragon, in Dec 2017, and that of my second, Hubris, both thanks to the great folk at @gmtgames.bsky.social … Between evolution, flourishing and continuity… 😊

I'm very proud of this design, and so pleased with how great its ended up looking! It's been a real labour of love by everyone involved, not least the talented (and only occasionally infuriating) designer @nbsp1618.bsky.social, who I've had the pleasure of getting to know well while working on it.

Patch got a pair or wins in Silarus from C&C:A Expansion #2. I went in aggressive both times, but Patch had well-timed Counter Attack cards to shift the momentum decisively to him. @gmtgames.bsky.social www.rindis.com/blog/8781
