You're in for such a treat. It's a game that I think about constantly and helped me through lockdown. Wish I could play it again with no prior knowledge

An image of a paper board game prototype. The board has a map of hexagons with two standees of warriors placed on it. To the side is a time track a looped track with spaces. There is a yellow and red counter on different spaces. Below and above are cards showing various equipment and armour

This week took my fantasy gladiator game prototype to a local playtesting meet up. Lots of positive response and a lot of useful feedback. Tested a lot of other fun games too including a very fun dexterity block building game!

Is this a rank and flank miniature game as a card game? If so it's a fantastic idea and colour me really interested!

Small Prophets was truly fantastic. Hits a lot of the same notes as Detectorists; small, mundane, twee, understated whilst being so compelling. It takes all this and adds a layer of strange that just works. Can't wait for the next season!

Really sad to hear that. Remember playing an early version of this a long time ago and had fun so was looking forward to seeing it published. Hope you find a new publisher soon!

Thanks for the review. The unique theme caught my eye, so good to get some early insight. You should totally update or do a follow up if you get a chance to have a game.

The non-combat/politics aspect is probably the most interesting selling point for me. From everything I've heard it works well, because it's a bold choice that could have easily not paid off.

Always heard great things about it but never got a chance to try it. As a Warhammer Fantasy player back in the day rank and flank is appealing. Granted Game of Thrones doesn't do anything for me theme wise.

since Warhammer makes up about 75% of the UK economy & most British bank notes will go through their tills at some point anyway, why not just stick Khorne, Tzeentch, Slaanesh & Nurgle on them & be done with it?

Fuck it, reintroduce £100 notes, stick rat boy on it & that’s wildlife ticked off too

Played local Manchester Proquest with a fantastic turn out of 40+ people.
Ended Swiss with 5 wins and a draw on Victor. Ended up 3rd seed for top 8. Got to semi-finals before getting blasted by a local on Marlynn. Great day, I've made semi-finals twice now so finals is the next CC aim.

Re;Act is awesome and does so many things I love. Re;Match looks like it's going to be even better. It also has a strong anti-AI stance, don't miss out!

Great to wake up to good political news this morning. Even more so when it's your local constituency

Hey everyone, after 8 amazing years working on some fantastic games with some of the best people I’ve moved on from Steamforged Games and am looking for a new challenge!

As such I’m on the look out for brand new opportunities in the tabletop industry freelance or full-time.

“Unbiased” board game reviews are the last ones to be trusted. Everyone has biases. Far more trustworthy are reviews that acknowledge their influence and bias. It indicates a level of awareness, honesty, and ability to contextualize that hints at more thoughtful and meaningful analysis and review.

Image of the board for the game, Fate of the Fellowship. It's a map of Middle Earth with various small wooden pieces and many flying Nazgul miniatures.

Finally got to play some board games at the weekend, played Boop, Monikers, and Fate of the Fellowship.

Fate of the Fellowship is awesome! Despite being built on the bones of Pandemic, it's amazing how much it feels like it's own thing. Wins the prize for the smallest meeples too!

Sad that Florian has LLed before the only RtN that I'll get to play this season. Made worse by the fact that I was too sick to play my two local RtN's last weekend :(
