Final situation in the Chir Short scenario of BCS Inflection Point. Soviet 5th Mech has cleared all resistance up to the last VP hex (marked with arrow) but traffic from fierce fighting precludes an advance into the hex before the scenario ends.

It is with great honor that I announce that BCS inflection Point is shipping soon. It is my first game as head of The Gamers to be published following Dean’s passing. There is a long list of folks who have helped Dean see this design through.

Each summer I (MMP Social Media Guy) move to the family cottage. I was there this weekend opening up, and after looking through games stored there, I decided I'll have a go at the Day of Days campaign game.

Mostly it'll be solitaire, but visitors will be recruited to play if they wish.
