Armed and Dangerous » Blog Archive » The Golden Age of Wargaming is Now

The word is literally French for “grumbler”, historically used for Napoleonist diehards who never reconciled themselves to the fall of L’Empereur even after 1815, and nowadays refers to guys who cut their teeth on the classic, old-school hex-grid wargames of the 1970s. As a grognard, I’m expected to grumble dyspeptically about the superiority of the huge, heavy, elaborately simulationist two-player wargames we used to play back in the day, and bemoan how fluffy and social the modern wave of multiplayer Eurogames are. Sure, they’ve got four-color printing and unit counters you don’t have to use tweezers to pick up, but where are my pages and pages of combat resolution tables? Where are my hairsplitting distinctions between different types of self-propelled assault gun?

Android: Netrunner LCG Core Set (Preorder) Monolithic megacorps and individualistic netrunners collide in a dystopian future.

Android: Netrunner LCG Core Set (Preorder)

Set in the gritty, cyberpunk future of Android, Android: Netrunner is a two-player Living Card Game™ that rewards skill, strategy, and just the right amount of calculated risk. In a world where corporations can scan the human mind and interface it directly with electronic data, more data moves every second than was ever processed in the first five-thousand years of written language. The network is omnipresent, the crux of modern human civilization, and while visionary corporations seek to secure their most valuable data on the network, the elite hackers known as netrunners seek to steal it. This asymmetrical card game resurrects the mechanics of the original Netrunner, designed by Richard Garfield, and updates them to increase clarity and promote a more dynamic play environment. The Android: Netrunner Core Set features 252 cards, including seven unique identity cards. Flames Of War. Wargames Illustrated > Home. Flames of War.

Believe it or not, we couldn’t have done this without your kind words, participation in the forums, and of course, your purchases. While we love offering all of you great games at great prices, we have yet to find a method to make it worth our time and effort. At first, we thought that we could eventually make it through the rough times and become profitable. But after months of hard work and devotion, things weren’t looking up, and up to this point we haven’t been very profitable. Don’t get us wrong, we made some money, and again, we appreciate your support. Hilinski Crokinole Boards.

This is the second Gamecamp. Organised by awesome people, hosted by PayPal/Gumtree/eBay with food from Pizza Express and booze from Unity, it works on the unconference model. In short: a conference without a plan. People turn up. Anyone who wants to try and run a session, can do so. The Finer Points of Teaching Rules. The board gaming hobby brings child-like fun to adults. This grade of fun exists at the core of board gaming and cannot be found in most other adult hobbies. Having tapped this "premium" fun is what keeps board gamers longing for gaming opportunities and eager to experience new games. Yet despite the fun present at most tables where games are being played, some board gamers lack one skill essential to assuring that every game experience is as fun and enjoyable as it could be.

That skill is teaching the rules. Because there will always be new games to play, there will always be new rules to teach. We've all played new games. Gaming with Kids: From D&D to Fiasco. It’s official, 4E D&D is a dead at the after-school gaming club. At the moment the students are really grooving on playing Fiasco – we’ve played three weeks in a row and I’ve had new kids showing up wanting to play, or just watch, based on word of mouth.

That’s really odd (and cool) to me since having run the club for the past eight years that’s not something I’ve experienced. Unlike the D&D games I’ve run (including both AD&D and 4th edition), the kids are fully engaged, attentive, and actively participating. It’s really enjoyable to watch, and more importantly, to play.
