Not only is Rebel Fury by @markherman54.bsky.social and published by @gmtgames.bsky.social an amazing game, but it's now available on Steam to go along with the original physical game and its really good Vassal digital implementation. There's no excuse for me not to play this all the time now!

Checking the road network for opening moves at Chancellorsville in Rebel Fury by @markherman54.bsky.social @gmtgames.bsky.social . 19 moves to get Hill and Colston to the far edge of command range. Gotta fill time at youth hockey practice somehow #boardwargames

One consideration: General Hooker wrote to Lincoln about his turning movement. Paraphrasing, if Lee moves to block the turning movement, Sedgwick's demonstration turns into main attack Note that you can turn the CSA right flank with the Union 1st Corps and attack entrenchments from the rear.

Krieg: 1st edition; this is the copy I played on with Alan Emrich long ago. One time I was winning big with the Allies in 1943 and my opponent resigned. Alan asked to pick up the game where it was. Next thing I know D-Day becomes Dieppe. He was a beast at this game. RIP buddy

First campaign game of Churchill by @gmtgames.bsky.social & @markherman54.bsky.social Such a wonderfully tense game—very much a learning experience for my group. UK crushes the competition in a conditional surrender #BoardWargames

This weekend I wrote the Defiance solitaire rules, edited AoP campaign rules, now it’s time for football and Dune. This one is becoming a favorite these days.

Finally sunk my teeth into Empire of the Sun! This is the 1942 scenario with Erasmus as a basic guide for both sides to learn the broad strokes. Lots of small mistakes but so much fun! @markherman54.bsky.social has a huge corpus of helpful writing on it. Surprise JP auto win in the last card.
