(1) would be more clearly written as "There is dance music only in times of war", so by Gricean implicature I must conclude that (2) was intended.

The first game is Night Witches - www.nightwitches.com - designed by David Thompson and Liz Davidson and illustrated by Ian O'Toole. This will be one of the few opportunities to get the Limited Edition Ian O'Toole Box Cover.

Having a morning playtest of Foxes & Lions (HIS system game I'm co-designing with Paul Wright) with @joedewhurst.bsky.social. Venice is both kicking butt and about to get wrecked by all the other powers who are clearly just jealous.

It's been a crazy time as the new creative director at Leder Games, but I'm settling in. In fact, I am delighted to announce a major typographic improvement to all of our games, past and future: We will be changing our official font to Papyrus! Can't wait to share even more innovations.

Played a great game of Baltic Empires with my local group today, I managed to sneak a national ambition win with Russia on round 5. Game is designed by Brian Asklev and forthcoming from @gmtgames.bsky.social! I'll have my copy at PunchedCon in May, although the game may be released by then.
