I stayed up way too late for the launch of the #mothership megagame #over/under last night. I immediately signed up to the teamsters union and accidentally started replicating my real-life political activities: joining a mutual aid collective, agitating internally, and scheming behind closed doors 😂

Won this beauty by @djackthompson.bsky.social in the PunchedCon raffle, looking forward to digging into it! Thanks also to @ospreygames.bsky.social for donating it and @jsbuckley.bsky.social for organising, it was a great weekend!

Tried this today, it's a great looking production and we had fun with 2 players, although I think it will be better with 3 or 4. There are a couple of gameplay things I am slightly unsure about, but I think they could easily be tweaked slightly after a few more plays.

I've just arrived back in Scotland after a fantastic two weeks in the US, including a whistle-stop tour of Nevada and Arizona, a week in New Mexico, then a few days in DC. In spite of everything I still love visiting the US, and more importantly spent some quality time with both family and friends.

I had a great time at @fortcircle.bsky.social's Circle DC convention this weekend, demoing several games and meeting up with people I only see once a year, but the highlight has to be getting brutally massacred in about 15 minutes in Psycho Raiders. Thanks @chaosgoat.bsky.social!

My partner and I are having a very productive festive season designing and testing new decks for @restorationgames.bsky.social's, including Silent Hill, Resident Evil, and X-Files! Something about the system just invites creativity, and it's hard to stop once you get starred!

Today I'm reviewing some of the final materials for @yoyoni.bsky.social's Chicago '68, and in my (perhaps biased) opinion I think it is looking absolutely fantastic! Yoni and our amazing artist John Biggs have put a huge amount of work into this production, and it's going to be a beautiful game.
