Unboxing & Overview for Illusions of Glory When Illusions of Glory was being published in 2017 I really had a high hopes for this game. Who would not have – in the end it was a spiritual successor to the great Paths of Glory. However,…

Illusion of Glory is the youngest in the series - and after some hiccups at the beginning, proved to be a great game. Let us see its components and discuss major game mechanics in this short material!

Yes, there is a die - actually, you can have just d10, or you can have a d10 with proper probabilistic distribution (need to get the rules and show them - do not have at hand now). But this is cleverly designed.

Wow, how did you achieved that 🤣

Definitely! I have enjoyed Freezing Inferno, hope that one will be good too!

Thanks! I am very curious about this one and comparison to Freezing Inferno. Will definitely share my impressions.

I am soloing Khalkhin Gol - very intriguing game from Princeps Games about USSR vs Japan clash in Mongolia in 1939. Beautiful map & components and interesting historical background. Learn more from the designer about this game here:

Wow, what a carnage!

Looks brutal; and it seems a lot of Allied loses has to be via cutting supply?

Cools stuff and lesson in history!

True, which makes things a bit easier!

That one is huge. I created sets for previous editions and it took a lot of time...

Had a chance to playtest Resist! Really cools game, with so many options. And such satysfying!

First Look at Combat Commander: Pacific Combat Commander series is one of my favorite, tactical, small-units combat wargames. It very nicely incorporates chaos of battle into the gameplay. I had a chance to I played it extensively, among…

In anticipation for anniversary edition of Combat Commander Europe, let us look at its cousin - Combat Commander Pacific. While similar system, the flavor and feel is definitely different. Enjoy the material!

Hopefully soon we will get Berlin!

Thanks. Great game with such a wonderful implementation!

Wonderful game and incredible implementation.

Oh yes, that exciting experience - and we learned a lot!

Very much indeed; and we tried also free set-up which brings additional twist.

Julius Caesar from Columbia Games is one of the classic wargames. We had a pleasure - again, thanks to #RallyTheTroops - to play it several times with @cliosboardgames.bsky.social. And below I am presenting several exciting session reports from this! Enjoy!

Thanks. We heard Saratoga is best so most probably that battle will land as one of the first on the table.
