On Tuesday, March 18 at 1 pm and again at 4 pm I was fortunate enough to present our upcoming games and expansions to retailers attending the GAMA Trade Show. Each of these one-hour presentations was fantastic fun, and I cannot thank all of the attending retailers enough for showing up to hear me chatter on about games. Sorry if I ran on a bit long, but you guys were warned that it was me and that GAMA gave me an hour. I do love to talk. During the presentation we discussed not only new titles -- and there were plenty of those to chat about, including a surprise from John Kovalic that "accidentally" slipped into the slides -- but I also had a chance to ask the retailers about possible future projects. Most popular wouldn't-that-be-incredible potential product?

Les Écuries d’Augias Avril, mois des abîmes.Et le jeu de rôles se mit en scène dans une curieuse mise en abîme.Le projet de La Chaux de Fonds 1904 s'est concrétisé le vendredi soir 7 mars 2014.Vous trouverez les liens vers les aides de jeu et la carte en bas de cet édito. Tenue de soiréeRendez-vous dans une cave voûtée du café Le Petit Paris, dans la cité horlogère.Une curieuse mise en scène très intimiste, presque utérine, avec le maître de cérémonie qui emprunte les traits de Lionel Jeannerat, à la base du projet. Maestro ! Star Frontiersman For many of us, Star Frontiers was our first foray into science fiction role-playing. For a few of us, it was our very first role-playing game! We recall the first time we peeled the plastic wrap from the box, felt those little plastic ten-sided dice in our hands. We flipped through the book and were instantly transported to the setting through the artwork of Easley and Elmore, who brought the amazing races to life. It was distinctly different from other role-playing games of the same era: it didn't have restrictive character classes to box in your imagination; it was new and innovative rather than a rehash of older (though beloved) themes. It wasn't Star Trek, wasn't Star Wars, and wasn't Flash Gordon or Buck Rogers... it was new and we loved it.

A propos, surtout, de mes jeux de société – Mostly about my card and boardgames (Ceci est une version sensiblement développée d’un article que j’avais publié il y a quelques années sous le titre “Plagiats, Copies, Influences”.) Je me serais bien passé d’écrire cet article. Le marché du jeu de société a connu depuis une vingtaine d’années une croissance impressionnante. Les joueurs, passionnés ou amateurs, sont de plus en plus nombreux, et par conséquent les auteurs, les éditeurs gros et petits, et même aujourd’hui les critiques et journalistes ludiques, faisant craindre parfois surproduction ou perte d’âme. D’abord européen et américain, le monde du jeu s’est largement mondialisé,et si la croissance ralentit, c’est en partie parce que les terres à conquérir se font rares.

Mike's 2nd Wargames Page Not a game, but a set of counters for naval battles. If you ever wanted to re-enact Jutland or Leyte Gulf, but your budget for miniatures limited you to the Monitor vs the Virginia, your ships have come in! I'm recreating every major warship that existed from the 1890's to the end of WWII, plus many ships that were started but never finished, or proposed but never built. They are sized for standard hex maps, but they're also suitable for games that use more realistic movement. Medieval Fantasy City Generator by watabou This application generates a random medieval city layout of a requested size. The generation method is rather arbitrary, the goal is to produce a nice looking map, not an accurate model of a city. All the actions and options are accessible via the context menu.
