I’ve banged the drum for Godtear. It remains a top tier skirmisher and I’m still clapping that snare. Winter’s Reckoning is the first organized play kit for the game. It’s a response to the community’s desire for support beyond the regular champion boxes Steamforged Games has released. It’s an solid offering and a worthy inaugural…
I’m a huge fan of Blitz Bowl. I found the Second Season Edition to be a worthy successor to the original Barnes & Noble exclusive. I still believe it to be a stronger more succinct version of Blood Bowl. In fact, the only tabletop sports title I’d put ahead of it is the splendid Techno…
The PG series is a collection of articles incorporating the perspective of my eight-year-old daughter, Lila. “Ooh, what’s that?” “It’s, uh, Warhammer.” “What’s Warhammer?” “Oh dear. Well, you remember that Space Marine game you loved? That’s Warhammer.” She cocks her head, instantly suspicious. “I didn’t even like that game. And that was in space,…
This is a pretty appealing release. It builds upon the previous Jurassic Park title, InGen vs. Raptors, upping the stakes by including the first large sized Unmatched miniature. In some ways it completes the Jurassic Park setting by filling out the character options and making this property a more robust niche of Unmatched legends. Unfortunately,…
I’m still chuckling at the absurd length of both the game’s and this article’s title. However, it fits with the way the MCU has slammed together sequels and crossovers with reckless abandon. I’ve written at length of my own personal Marvel cinematic renaissance. Since then, I’ve kept up with most of the ongoing films and…
The Marvel Cinematic Universe. There are power in those words. What is the MCU? No, not a collection of films. I’m looking for essence. Nature. Emotion. What is the MCU? A dagger of lightning echoed through Mjolnir and into every inch of your mortal tissue. Maybe for you, but not for me. It’s April 27th…
Devil May Cry: The Bloody Palace is a Steamforged Games title. There’s some baggage there. It’s also a James Hewitt lead work. And there lies expectation. Like Sabertooth meeting Wolverine, impediment meet badass. May the stronger come out on top. I know a bit of the Devil May Cry series. Enough to examine this game…
I was impressed with Unmatched. I thought the character choices were interesting and varied, the ruleset was tight and fluid, and the product design was simply outstanding. What’s perhaps shocking is that I was never much of an Epic Duels fan, yet this release felt warm and comforting in ways I didn’t expect. It even…
Core Space is a semi-cooperative miniatures skirmish system that was one of my most beloved releases of 2019. It continues to see a substantial amount of play and my enthusiasm remains elevated. Dangerous Days functions as the second season of this system, featuring the first expansion material developed post-release. I’m using the title Dangerous Days,…
The Galactic Corps is an expansion for Core Space that introduces security forces to the game. My expression right now is one of exasperation and struggle. How do I write about this? It’s only part of the reason why it’s been four long months since I’ve written anything, but it is a significant part. I’m…
