Lt. Biggles died leading a bold charge and a tank got brewed up, but the Allies are pressing hard into Cardonville for "I Ain't Shot Mum". Can the Germans hold out? @aiannucci.bsky.social @toofatlardies.bsky.social #IABSMRevolution

And the Designers & Dragons: Origins is over. Thanks so much for the support! We brought in just a hair short of a quarter-of-a-million dollars (wow!), which I believe puts us in the top-5 Evil Hat Kickstarters (OK, #5), so I'm super happy for the interest in history!

Brave Capt. Achilles has gone missing and the ARVN are going to be commanded by some rookie stepping awkwardly into his very big boots as they attempt "Rawhide" for "Charlie Don't Surf!" this Saturday. @toofattofish-5.bsky.social @armchairdragoons.bsky.social

We are definitely playing some "A Fistful of TOWS 3" now. The Germans rolled in our first battle -- "A Roaring Start" (August 1941) -- but we promptly talked rules and then set up "Beginner's Luck" (August 1944) for next week! @armchairdragoons.bsky.social

Armchair Dragoons Reviews Berlin 1945: The Fall of the Reichstag

Quote
If I had two words to describe this game’s greatest strength, they would be “approachable complexity.” It tends towards the lighter side of the wargaming spectrum.
