Another highlight from #bottoscon. Maurice Suckling’s Crisis 1914. Tight, super game.

Game two on Thursday was 1862 Brothers at War. It went right down to the second last turn. Cool system.

First game in the books. I won a very exciting game of Oblique by @amabel.bsky.social
So much back and forth!

For a bit of distraction from the flooding remediation, I took a couples hours off and played the first mission from @djackthompson.bsky.social ‘s WAR STORY. I don’t play solo games often, but this might change my mind. So fast to get into, and then all the choices you make impact the end. Fantastic

I'm not sure if you're joking about that library being beautiful, but here's the new main branch of the Calgary Public Library

My wife says I read ACW history like I’m studying for an exam I’ll never take. Still, she gave me this beauty for Father’s Day.

Visited Reykjavik’s best game store, Nexus. They had games from @gmtgames.bsky.social on this little island. Pretty big game store really, with tons of fantasy and 40k minis. A couple brands we don’t see at home, according to my daughter.

The delivery of my Hollandays sale stuff was interrupted by the postal strike. So I got goodies today. And @amabel.bsky.social says there is a new game coming from John Theissen, so good thing I’m getting caught up. (Plus it came with the holiday present, Hobson’s Horses, not pictured)

I can’t agree with this. No one is paying me. I’m not on the clock. I’ll do whatever the hell I like. It’s been a day of being dumped on and disrespected for just trying to contribute to the hobby. Seeing this was the last straw. Bugger off. All the way off.

I bought Gettysburg: A Time for Heroes on the rec of a listener, and because it was in some way related to Freeman's Farm by @writegameread
Enjoying it. A very different GBurg game. Attrition for moves. Limited moves for each leader. Point2point
