25 games for 2026
25 wargames I'd like to play in 2026.
OK, I know I'll never get all 25 played, not with also keeping up with new games and pre-orders and the endless torrent of games that keep coming. But if I got 10 of these played, I'd be thrilled.

The editorial board of the Globe & Mail:
“Saturday marked the formal debut of an imperial America, led by a president who recognizes no law, save that of the jungle.”
“Every country in the Western Hemisphere should be worried, particularly this country, which Trump covets as a 51st state.”

Maduro's not a good guy, agreed. But neither is Putin, and Trump rolled out the red fucking carpet for him. It's not about dope, it's about oil (which kinda IS dope).
Just when you think Trump has hit the gutter, he bounces lower.

Prelude to Leipzig Unboxing
Check out John Thiessen's is operational Napoleonic game. Like his ACW games, this features a large map with very few units, suggesting a game of maneuver as much as battle.

Prelude to Leipzig Unboxing
It appears John Thiessen is taking his operational American Civil War system and tweaking it for the Napoleonic wars. That's my guess after looking at these components.

The @theatlantic.com accused Canadians of "treachery" because Global TV aired the documentary on Trump's crimes.
Fascism doesn't just happen, it is made possible because of the complicity of the media and intellectual class.
Canada isn't treacherous. We have backbone.

Increase in productivity since 1979: 87%
Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 32%
Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%.
As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.

NEW: last night, the US govt launched an assault on the ‘global censorship industrial complex’, aka European tech researchers/campaigners.
It’s a deeply chilling move & speaks as to why we need international solidarity more than ever.

The Atlantic suggesting, without evidence, that Canada's Global TV broadcasting the '60 Minutes' segment on CECOT that CBS distributed to it may have been an act of "treachery."
