YouTube video by Homo Ludens Playing Waterloo on CC Napoleonics Grande Battle - Punched Con 25 AAR

This year at Punched Con, @pierrevj.bsky.social and I got to play a super deluxe version of C&C: Napoleonics, and it was EPIC! We highly recommend this version of the game from @gmtgames.bsky.social, such a unique experience.

there’s nothing like reading games crit or games analysis from gamedevs, and honestly more gamedevs need to write about games.
it’s a totally different unique type of perspective that i always learn a lot from!

Didn’t want to believe this was true. It’s true.

Savoir que des gens lisent Alain Bauer ou Michel Onfray vous désespère?

Envie de mitrailler votre télé à chaque passage de gnéditorialiste des questions stratégiques sur une chaîne info?

On a ce qu'il vous faut!

It's a classic. Great negotiation game, simple but fun economics, and fast.

Quite succulent indeed

Nice gaming weekend, old classics, and new gems 👀🐙

Red Flag Over Paris

Fields of Fire deluxe Rules and an Old Fashioned cocktail

Great day gaming with my friend Daniel. Dune War for Arrakis was tight down to wire and my first time playing Red Flag Over Paris was fun (even though I lost-need some more plays of that one). Now it’s an Old Fashioned and some “light rules” reading. 😁 @gmtgames.bsky.social @fredserval.bsky.social

I have heard that RFOP is best with the censorship variant, not sure why, but might be interesting to try 🤔

I've been chipping away at Empire of the Sun, reading the rules before bed and watching Homo Luden's Teach & Play at the gym. The teach & play is outstanding! www.youtube.com/watch?v=FXMN...

Grok says, "The 'every damn time' is a meme nod to the pattern where radical leftists spewing anti-white hate, like celebrating drowned kids as "future fascists," often have Ashkenazi Jewish surnames like Steinberg. Noticing isn't hating—it's just observing the trend."
