Hubris can really deliver some awesome narrative and twists of fate: in my current solo test game of the prequel expansion, the 4th turn (235-231) was just spectacular! First, Seleukos II suffered a crushing defeat despite enjoying numerical superiority against his rebel brother Antiochos Hierax.

Closing out 2025 with a test game of the upcoming prequel expansion for @gmtgames.bsky.social Hubris… Antigonos Gonatas, Ptolemaios III and Seleukos II wish you a very Happy New Year 226 BCE! 🍾🎇

I’d like to believe that the horrific darkness of this past year is a necessary prelude to a brighter and saner future. Some thoughts... https://robertreich.substack.com/p/sunday-thought-a-year-of-reckoning

Splurged a little bit and purchased the @cube4me.bsky.social set for my own @gmtgames.bsky.social Hubris: everything fits in very nicely and neatly 😊

Ich habe nun ein wenig in Hubris von @morganegr.bsky.social und @gmtgames.bsky.social reingespielt und Euch mal einen Ersteindruck aufgenommen. Viel Spaß beim Schauen. Ich freue mich über Feedback und natürlich ein Like sowie vllt. ein Abo. 😉 #Brettspiele #wargames #boardgames youtu.be/ZM4zHm17mIg

Took me a couple tries, but I finally managed to win @snafustore.bsky.social Operation Bøllebank by getting tank BQ in Tango 2 on the very last turn, despite the 1st tank being slowed down by Hull dmg, achieving both Operational, Strategic & Political victories! Very interesting little game indeed!

Atypical « arrivage du jour » today with my designer’s lot of @gmtgames.bsky.social Hubris copies 😊🙏

It's December and we're sharing Assigned Media's top stories from 2025! Two of our most evergreen stories came from the incredible @billiejsweeney.bsky.social (who classes the place up immensely, let me just say). Here, Billie wrote about the attacks on science undergirding misinfo on trans care.

Arrivage du jour: Imperial Elegy, a very heavy and interesting box from @vucasimulations.bsky.social I’m typically weary of 6-players CDGs to play at home, but the game’s subject is so enticing, and I trust the great people at VUCA to deliver on their 1-6 players promise…

#Hubris at #Batalladores25 @morganegr.bsky.social as a teacher. She's done It again. Very, very, very fun, yet deep enough for hardcore gamers. Great desing. Absolutely,the nirvana of wargaming @gmtgames @clubbatallador.bsky.social @gmtgames.bsky.social

Back home tired but delighted after a wonderful 4-days trip to Zaragoza to attend the top notch Batalladores 2025 convention masterfully organized by @clubbatallador.bsky.social So impressed, and not a little jealous, by the super dynamic ConSim community in Spain.

Courier dropped off my copy of Hubris last night 🥰 By @morganegr.bsky.social and @gmtgames.bsky.social We’ve come a long way since I first heard about it on Harold Buchanan’s podcast.

Arrivage du jour: back to games, and two beautiful games it is! Mark McLaughlin’s 7th edition of War and Peace, and @fredserval.bsky.social A Gest of Robin Hood @gmtgames.bsky.social 2nd printing

Arrivage du jour… Books, not games, though some, if not all of them will be as much pleasure as study…

True nuff.

Very important read!

Back from 4 great days at Asynconv in Tours, where I demoed my advance copy of @gmtgames.bsky.social Hubris and live tested my upcoming prequel expansion for it (250-221 BCE) Overwhelmingly positive feedback on the quality of the final product, and great time for both new & experienced players!

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… 😊

A very special « Arrivage du jour » today, with my advance copy of my very own Hubris - Twilight of the Hellenistic World by @gmtgames.bsky.social ! And if I may say so myself, it is simply stunning! 🤩

Quand on voit la Hongrie de Orban dépendante de la Russie les résultats éco catastrophiques de Milei en Argentine, le hooliganisme de Trump et les cicatrices du Brexit … Je ne comprends pas qu’on puisse encore être tenté par le vote populiste réactionnaire et antidémocratique. Et pourtant….

F#ck. “A provision ‘hidden’ in the sweeping budget bill that passed the U.S. House on Thursday seeks to limit the ability of courts—including SCOTUS—from enforcing their orders *** The provision ‘would make most existing injunctions…unenforceable,’” per the dean of UC Berkeley Law School. 5/22/25

Last night, we were one of the first outlets to report the ADULT ban on gender affirming care for Medicaid recipients who depend on it to access it. This morning, that bill passed 215-214-1. It now goes to the senate. It's a bleak day for transgender Americans.

The house has passed a ban on coverage of gender care for all ages under Medicaid, CHIP and ACA plans. I don't know what to say to anyone this morning other than that the hundreds of thousands of people who are about to lose access to the care they need to stay alive deserve better than silence.

Allow me to address the elephant in the room: The decades-long outsourcing of domestic manufacturing to China was not an insidious Chinese conspiracy for dominance but the greedy strategy of the American ruling class to explode its profit margins by exploiting global inequality.

Genuinely unbelievable how blatant the ongoing trans rights scandal is in the UK

Also this ⬇️ Feminist Academics and Educators Speak Out Against Transphobia. Please sign if you’re eligible.

Absolutely insane. Uneblieveable. "Sex Matters", one of the hate groups responsible for removing trans people's rights via the Supreme Court are arguing that trans people shouldn't be allowed to transition because they don't have rights and not having rights is bad. Fucking hell

There's not a single crime in the history of the UK that would have been prevented by a bathroom bill. Not one Bathroom bills aren't about safety, they're about trying to exclude LGBT people from public life. That's it

So important ➡️ In 2016 when North Carolina issued a ‘bathroom bill’, similar to what is happening in the UK right now, our Conservative government issues a travel warning to LGBTQ+ people. They recognised North Carolina was not a safe place for LGBTQ+ people. Our MPs need this spelled out to them.
