What a great first day in Essen! NEITHER KING NOR GOD LTD PILOT EDTION sold out and we met so many of you! Thanks to all for passing by!
Before the convention opened its doors, these gentlemen couldn’t resist, sat down and played the game. I think they liked it 😊

Renaissance Europe was messy. Mercenaries fought for coin, bishops switched sides, and spies were everywhere. Neither King Nor God lets you dive into that chaos and see if you can outwit the rest of the table.

Anniversary of the battle of Aspern-Essling, 1809. This battle will be vol. 3 in our BoN series (Q4/25). An overlooked, very dramatic battle. One of the few Napoleonic battles where ammunition supply was a real issue. After the clash Napoleon said "I lost the battle against the river".

Enjoying Punchedcon in UK with my designer friend Wolfgang (ASSAULT series). Many Sound of Drums games are being played. It’s great to meet many gamers from UK in person.
The “Windsor Suite” offers tables for monster games.
Well done Rich & Phil. Superbe event!

Before leaving to the Bologna (Italy) convention I got first samples of our coming Quatre Bras and I was happy to meet Laurenzo who did a first play test with me with the physical components. Very exciting. ASSAULT SICILY 43 was also demoed over the three days.
