"Prisons, constructed as such, have a sinister, but often, also, a nervous, makeshift air about them." - John Berger

My first play of Penitent by @danbullock.bsky.social sees my nervous, makeshift prison collapse into ignominy on round 2.

Back from Circle DC, and it’s a busy day here at the house assembling orders. Penitent preorders should all be out the door this week. Love getting them all shipped to folks a few weeks early😎

DRACHEN demo yesterday at CircleDC, Situation "Raynal".

Next Wednesday 😀

Yes, they were designed around the same time. I think that in a way it's similar to Simonitch's Us Civil War, with a bit of GCACW. A game about maneuvering, recruiting, and controlling the key locations.

Thank you very much!

Thank you very much!

Thank you very much!

I will be bringing a copy of PENITENT to Circle DC. Though there is no formal demo on the schedule, I'm happy to show it off.

Orders will begin shipping next week. There are still a few copies left on the Lock Horns Games site. lockhornsgames.com

A new 30 Years War game, something that doesn't happen very often.
Congrats to Francisco and everyone involved at GMT.
Cheers 🍻

And this is a different perspective from the other games on the subject. We are very happy with the final result of the model.

People are finding beauty in previously unfound places: in errors, typos, things that are anything but the average of expressions that AI forces down our throats.

I encourage everyone to find these things in their lives and hobbies that prove undoubtedly that humanity speaks.
