Last year for @sdhistcon.bsky.social I interviewed @djackthompson.bsky.social on the Homo Ludens YouTube channel about his upcoming design Rebels Against Rebellion. I was really proud of it, and I don't think enough people have seen it, so I'm plugging it again now! www.youtube.com/watch?v=p5Cf...

Just finished Afghanistan: Decade of Strife. I played the Coalition, and had a clear advantage having played the game before, and allowed the Coalition to hold Kabul in the end! Thanks @sdhistcon.bsky.social for running this con!

Guess what? Besides the cool seminars/talks and seeing the local sights I also played some GAMES at @sdhistcon.bsky.social . As befits this unique event, the titles reflect new directions in “wargaming,” as well as older precursors of the same. History Games!
