I just finished *Descent into Chaos: the US and the Disaster in Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Central Asia*. A pretty depressing read. I have a lot of respect for the author, Ahmed Rashid, though he can be kinda shrill at the same time. Sadly, in so ma…
This will be a forum for the upcoming game of the French war in Algeria during the fifties (Khyber Pass Games). It will be one of few wargames dealing with the modern warfare dilemma: Unless you win the population you will not win at all.

Audi demonstrates that tyranny still isn't funny.
Read "The Last Duel" by Eric Jager. Subtitled: A True Story of Crime, Scandal, and Trial by Combat in Medieval France. Could be a Hollywood movie??? Good.
"The Scottish War of Independence" by Evan Macleod Barron. A"Critical Study" to support the a…

I'd like to personally invite you all to read a full preview (13Mb PDF link) of our new fast-playing (30 minutes) tactical WWII card game, Frontline General: Spearpoint 1943 in our newsletter. I'm happy to announce that we've just passed the 200 p…
Thanks!
Count me in Jim!
Didn't we just have a special election.....God we get to go through THAT yet again....
I've found the internal debate (i.e. the debate in my head) has been to either play a lot of games poorly or a few games well. I prefer the latter model, but then you must, as you say, find that set of holy grail games that one chooses to become goo…

My wife Carolyn teaches special ed. I wouldn't trade jobs with her for any amount of money. Very difficult work indeed.
Group to discuss boardgame Map Making.
Where amateur and published map makers can discuss and assist each other with techniques and methods used in creating boardgame maps.
(not a group for arguments about what map style or software app is best)
I've recently printed and built "To the Last Man." I was able to play the game and get an idea of its look and feel beforehand thanks to BGG and Cyberboard. It's an excellent game, one well worth the bother.
I _hope_ it is just by unfortunate accid…
