Exactly!

Very good; especially helpful when playing with artificial light - no reflexes!

Very nice color palette!

This is cool game and each time one tries something new!

Leisure Saturday with BCS (Battalion Combat System) from @multimanpublishing.bsky.social. "Danger Forward: The Battle of Gela, July 1943" is a wonderful, small installment in this series, published in Battalion S3 Magazine. While small in size, it has terrific depth! Check it out!

Wonderful!

Thank you Volko! Unfortunately, even on the table, things finished for Romanos Diogenes the same as in history...

That means that Center has access to both regions and vice versa. That is pretty intuitive once you start playing.

I hope they will finally do a reprint!

You will enjoy it very much! While rulebook might be a bit vague at times, the overall effect is great.

Hopefully we shall see the final effect soon!

In below material we present the Kingdom of Heaven mechanics and main design concepts. This wonderful title about Crusades period is definitely worth familiarizing with. Enjoy! 👇👇👇

We had so much fun with it!

(3/3) We concluded again with Neither King nor God. This game is really tense - again the victory was decided on tie-breaker! Can’t wait to see full 5-player version this year!
@soundofdrumsgames.bsky.social

(2/3) Then we jumped to lighter wargame - Wunderwaffen. Funny, quick game where despite us taking finally Berlin, German player prevailed on points! @aresgames.bsky.social

(1/3) We concluded the Przemysl convention with three games. First of all, classical Friedrich - what a great session it was with a lot of maneuvering, suspense, great moments and finally Prussian victory!

(3/3) At the end of the day we found time to play Tyrants of the Underdark. That classical game is very harda to find. For me that was first play and it was a fun & blast indeed. I will definitely come back to it one day!

(2/3) The second title to hit the table was Neither King nor God from @soundofdrumsgames.bsky.social. That was a fun to play and my Papacy managed to turn catholic almost every single center! I can’t wait to see the full, 5-player version - that will be epic!

(1/3) Second day of our local Polish convention in Przemyśl starter with a big, 5-player session of Bretwalda. Danes which are added with one of expansions really change the game mechanic and make it much more fun to play. Artifacts does the job to! @phalanxgames.bsky.social

This is 4-player game: Russia, Cuba, European Union and US. Three decades between 1989 and 2019.

Thanks for kind words. It really gives me a lot of joy seeing so many players having fun with this title after Deluxe Edition was published.

(3/3) To wrap-up evening we played lighter title - Taifa from @worth2000words.bsky.social. We decided for the team variant with highest score in prevailing team as a winner. As always, pretty crazy & enjoyable play with many twists & turns. Janek won with auto-victory here. More games today!

(2/3) Second title which landed on the table was New Cold War from @vucasimulations.bsky.social. We really made sure the US player is not getting ahead but then we did not manage to stop Russia from completing two objectives. Fun game either the great team.
