Here's me, chuckling, from the mines of having played hex and counter wargames long before Paradox decided that maybe making people put forts on every province was a bad idea. You ain't seen nothing yet with ZoC.

I've enjoyed my run through Menace Early Access, and i like the nuance the game has in its mechanics- this bad boy was a lot more useful in Rogue Army missions than one might think because he was cheap to field and i didn't have to worry so much about heavy AT on the rest of the team.

When the animators decide to do donuts in the parking lot for a really rote scene.

It's always fun when in a conversation between player characters in a TTRPG, the discussion of whether programmatic rules in a being obviate the possibility of digital life with free will results in an android being called a "Human-created Angel" From a GURPS game with an very out there premise.

I see Paradox had some fun with this one.

Watching Andor has me kinda jonesing for the espionage campaign that didn't come off the ground a few years ago to come back.

one thing i keep thinking about is how there is simply no way to design a constitutional system that can resist authoritarian incursion if participants in that system do not actually care that much

A campaign with a overall map like this is one of the more compelling TTRPG games i've been in for a long time now. #GURPS

Played GURPS Spaceships for the first time yesterday evening. The battle went very quickly but I thought it was fairly reasonable. Like a lot of things in GURPS, the rules aren't too tough and are similar to other TTRPG space ship combat rules but you have to goodly prep beforehand.

Been doing some Tony Scott watching and i thought i'd go ahead and post a screenshot of my favorite actor in Enemy of the State.

Trying out the new cubes4u shallow trays and they work better than i thought they would.

about to start total war in an Axis Empires: TK game, using deluxe rules but the old vassal module, things have gone a little weird

Things have gone a bit weird in my AE:TK game. Vassal module is for the old game.

You gotta watch out for those sneaky sealion plays. Not too hard to prevent but there's definitely some Axis strategies based around stretching the British out further than they'd like. Note that the panzer army has to be in a correct hex at the end of the last turn for this to work.

I think I found it, the ultimate "playing GCACW on tabletop" gif.
