@fortcircle.bsky.social @gmtgames.bsky.social Okay wargamers, this is going to be a big year for us at Origins. Time to come home to the convention that started it all. Four words: giant, magnetic, Twilight Struggle.
I love this little component that @qualitybeast.bsky.social included in their game. I think it should be in all games. I will probably find a rock to paint and keep on hand as a stand-in for this at any game. Wouldn’t you enjoy receiving or passing this out at the table? (1/2)

First learning session of Battlegroup Clash: Baltics by James Buckley and Sapper Studio. I really like this new trend in professional games turning to commercial ones. Sync matrices, hexless maps, EW - they're all here in BCB.
🎲✂️ *New Episode!* @ericabouyouris.bsky.social and @senfoonglim.bsky.social talk with @spenserstarke.bsky.social about bringing @daggerheartrpg.bsky.social, one of the new generation of tabletop role-playing games, to life. ludology.libsyn.com/ludology-354...

I haven’t talked about it in a while but Spindletop is very much still in development, Texagons and all. In the most recent iteration, the poker has taken a back seat to the economic Euro part of the game, although you can still win useful rewards from having the best hand each round. 🎲✂️
Today, I had the opportunity to playtest "Red Arrow, Blue Arrow," a prototype in-the-box French Army #wargame focused on company level combat. The game has tremendous potential with its level of accessibility and flexibility. #wargaming 🪖 🎲 💥

As a game designer, I always love learning other people's games. It is an opportunity to learn something new -- a different way to see a problem, how a clever mechanic is employed, or a contrasting design approach. A designer needs to constantly evolve to stay proficient. #wargaming
In addition to @bafriedman.bsky.social’s excellent thread yesterday on fundamentals of the MEU, let me offer a starter pack of readings on amphibious warfare in general and #USMC ops in particular. And as I have told others on this site: do the reading. There is no substitute.
It's good to be back on campus. Today, I led an intro #wargaming workshop for SSP graduate students. It's always a joy to introduce students to gaming for the first time. We played my CALLSIGN microgame. ✈️ 💥 🎲

Absolutely cracking session of Littoral Commander: Baltic today for M.A. Wargaming & Simulation Module. Played Baltic Siren scenario. Mission clarity underpinned our JCC selection. Maintenance of aim & integration of joint effects allowed our U.S. forces destroy RUS naval TF to win. #Wargaming
"Wargaming methods and techniques shouldn't be treated as trade secrets. Publish more. Opposing ideas in a public setting is what will drive the advancement of knowledge in the field." - Ivanka Barzashka in her webinar for @guws.bsky.social youtu.be/J7Y3VjqG_3I?...

Well. He’s a list of actually credible defense people to follow I suppose.
