Drat. When I went to hit ‘stop recording’ at the end of my play, I saw — much to my horror — the button still said… ‘start recording’. I could’ve sworn I’d started it back on the Geoscape but it…
Blaugust hasn’t quite come to a close, but the challenge component of it has. For those who either love to write like Bhagpuss or who appreciate looking back at a completed challenge in the rearview like I do, the ‘requirement’…
This round felt surprisingly… un-XCOM-like. It went altogether too well, and I kept waiting for something to happen to shake things up and keep me on my toes, if not knock me right off ’em. It didn’t happen, though. Not…
Half the year is over already. Crazy. Meanwhile, at work we wrap-up one financial year and begin the kick-off activities for the next. Booooriiiiing. (Well no, it isn’t- but probably would be for you.) Around here, for the blog, I…
Important note for players: If you missed the Discord chat, we have adjusted the structure of turns! (This is also why I’ve played two missions.) Now, you play the strategy / base portion of your turn first. You play that…

Don’t adjust your set- it isn’t broken. And it isn’t just deja vu, either. If you thought you’d seen this one already, that’s because… well, you have. The problem there, was that even though I had launched into Vanilla XCOM…
Eeeee! Exciting. Here we are- with the game underway, first mission played, turn order established, and the Succession Game page revamped to include this round and archive the details of the previous Civilisation VI Succession Game. Note: This version of…
You know, April felt like a pretty good month. No singular overriding reason- just a general sense of contentment, capped off with the discovery the other day that there are some pretty talented piano players out there. No really- it’s…
Yep. Yours. Over there in the corner. With the hat- and the face. Or maybe without the hat. *squints* It’s hard to see in this light. But with the Civilisation VI Succession Game now wrapped up, there’s room in my…
Last year, I put myself through a bit of a challenge. A Five Game Challenge. You might’ve already gathered that though from the title, even if you weren’t here at the time. Though if you weren’t, possibly the finer points…
