Last night was an Alpha Strike night at our club and, lacking anything else to play, I joined in. We played an attack/defence scenario, with each of teh five players controlling 150pts of mechs. Colin and I defended against three attacking lances. There were three objective counters up for grabs. Here's my group deployed, using buildings for cover. Advancing attackers. I focused on Caesar's group,…

On August 23, 1791, enslaved people in Saint-Domingue began an insurrection against the most profitable slave colony in the world. Within thirteen years, they had defeated the forces of France, Britain and Spain, abolished slavery, and established Haiti: the first independent Black republic and the only state in history founded by people who had emancipated \[…\] The post What does it mean to…

Once again I find myself apologising for the lack of posts here. With one thing and another I've not been gaming as much, nor pondering projects. However yesterday I did dig out this old boardgame that I bought more than 30 years ago. In fact I bought it, and hadn't looked at it since. 'Remember The Maine' covers the Spanish-American War in the Caribbean and Atlantic, with a campaign game allowing…

Inspired by his recent visit to the Hendon collection, Daniel asked if I could run a game of Spandau & Lewis last night. Originally I was going to run some balloon busting, since that suits two people rather well. But with two other people signing up I needed a larger game. Since Daniel had been rather taken with the Vickers FB5 at Hendon I decided to rerun my 1915 scenario. This is a fairly…

One of my view of simple scenario design is that you simply chuck plenty of troops into the mix, randomise some entry times and entry points and let the situation develop from that. Sometimes it doesn't work, but most of the time it produces entertaining results. Anyway, that's what I did last night for a club game of Torpedoes & Tides. I played Torpedoes & Tides because (i) Daniel asked for a…

I realise it's been a bit quiet here the past week or so. Part of this is that I didn't get a game organised last Thursday, so there was no club game to report. The other part is that I haven't had any regular toy soldiers out at home for a while. But I have been gaming. Last week Mrs Kobold and I broke out Battle Cry. We played the First Bull Run scenario through a couple of times, swapping sides…

No one knows how this will end. It could become one of the most consequential moments in human history. Or, ten years from now, it may be little more than a fascinating story in a White House memoir - a glimpse of what might have been.

I seemed to have spent most of August 2016 refighting battles of the South American Wars of Liberation. I covered Chacabuco and Laguna Salada, as well as Tucuman, the subject of this month's retrospective post. It's also the first time I tried Neil Thomas's 'Simplicity In Practice' rules, which I still like, even if I haven't played them for a while. Oh, and August 2016 was when I finally decided…
