Had a very good discussion with Christian from @echoteamgame.bsky.social about his project Echo Team: Spearhead. It looks gorgeous, has some cool mechanics for Spec Ops units and is currently on Gamefound. We shall write more about it!

And of course there's also Echo Team

Auf der Spiel25 hat mir Designer Christian Blaßmann von @echoteamgame.bsky.social sein #Brettspiel Echo Team Spearhead gezeigt und es ist absolut beeindruckend. Moderne Kriegsführung auf 8 hochaufgelösten Maps, basierend auf Drohnenaufnahmen, über 40 Waffen allein für die (1/x)

Hi, we'll be launching the crowdfunding campaign for Echo Team in October. Would you mind adding the game to your news? Our chat is enabled, if you have any questions

Will you be at SPIEL? You are welcome to come by our booth (number 2A620). We'll have a new prototype of the game.

We would have liked to be there but couldn't make it 😟. Hoping we can bring Echo Team next year.

Breaking News: Booth number at SPIEL is 2A620

😂 This happens when you don't check the website, but wait for their e-mails

We don't have a booth number yet, but we will post it as soon as we get it
