Toy Battle is a perfect game. I sincerely hope it sweeps the wargame category in the Golden Geeks. My review: spacebiff.com/2026/04/29/t...

Listened to it yesterday and I agree - excellent and thought-provoking. Thank you Dan and Cole!

Spielworxx Bulletin, Episode 30: 5g4d.com/podcasts/the...

Russlands Krieg gegen die Ukraine ist immer seltener in den Nachrichten. Doch jeden Tag wird weiter gekämpft, jeden Tag sterben Menschen. Der Dokumentarfilm „2000 Meters to Andriivka“ von Oscarpreisträger Mstyslav Chernov zeigt, was dieser Abnutzungskrieg wirklich bedeutet. 1/4

⚡️ War in Iran has used up half of US Patriot and THAAD missile stockpiles. The U.S. has run through over half of its stockpiles of key air defense missiles during the nearly two-month war on Iran.

5G4D is an important & unique show for the hobby; it provides a fabulous insight in to the lives and processes of game designers and industry folk as well as a slew of other spin-off shows. Intelligent and witty, it's entirely worthy of your attention and - if you can afford it - patronage: 5g4d.com

I love #Limit. Even when my society is not successful enough to win me points at the end, it's still so interesting to see it develop and grow over the generations. This time we actually triggered a financial crisis. 😅 #boardgames

I don’t think I’ve thought about a game as much or often since my first play as Molly House. A sensational experience that communicated its themes (in the literary sense) with a deft hand. Also, one of the few games to deal with sex and desire in a way that is mature and isn’t leering or boorish.

Last and certainly not least is our 2026 American Tabletop Award for Complex Games! This year's winner is Molly House, from @wehrlegig.games! For more information, see americantabletopawards.com/molly-house

This is why Russia is still fighting, why the war continues and why people are dying: Because Trump and Vance encouraged Putin to believe he could win

CMYK's Hot Streak and Magical Athlete race to wins in this year’s American Tabletop Awards, Fate of the Fellowship and Molly House also triumph: boardgamewire.com/index.php/20... Huge congrats to @cmyk.games @perryjon.bsky.social @mattleacock.bsky.social @miasmacorp.bsky.social @alex.cmyk.games!

It was nice to get back to work properly on An Infamous Traffic at #CircleDC I had missed working on economic games!

RIP Reinhold Wittig, one of the big gaming pioneers in Germany has sadly passed away. In the 80s he was THE small indie-publisher, who established the "tube cames", i.e. games in a cube here. Also his artwork of games like Müller&Co is one of the best until today.

Played Kanal on 2026-04-11. Great Plains Game Festival Saturday Game #5. Got this to the table but didn't have time to finish it. Hope to table it again soon because I really liked it! boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/43...

Played Molly House on 2026-04-11. Great Plains Game Festival Saturday Game #6. The community survived and no one got hanged! I couldn't believe it! What a joyous day! boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/34...

Thank you very much, Corey, for your very nice comments on Québec (roughly at 3:45 min.): www.youtube.com/watch?v=tlyo...

Trump went from making genocidal threats against Iran to becoming business partners with Iran in 24 hours. The guy is loonier than a shithouse rat.

Saying goodbye to Portugal and Leiria Con, what a wonderful time! Thank you very much Spiel Portugal!

Party decorator for hire. Will install decorations at a height relative to his own.

Today's personal highlight at Leiria was a 5-player game of the forthcoming Quebec with Steve, Marian, Corey, and Mark.

View from Leiria Con today

Playing Imperial Elegy all day with 6 (incl. 2 Mark Hermans) - excellent. Germany Austria-Hungary and the Ottomans won the Great War, Russia stayed neutral.

View from the hotel room right now at Leiria Con 2026. Not the Seilersee but not too shabby either.

Hey, Stephen, what is this? @podfathergaming.bsky.social

I met so many wonderful people yesterday! Personal Highlight was playing Paolo's and Alessandro's Battlefields of the Napoleonic Wars (Rivoli) with Mark Herman; we both loved the system. @mropla.bsky.social @markherman54.bsky.social

The first day at Leiria Con was wonderful; the organizers from Spiel Portugal are simply the best!
