I make games.
ファシストになるより、豚の方がマシさ
@fredserval.bsky.socialOver the last couple of years I've returned to my old habits and started playing Hex and Counter wargames again. I've been quite impressed by the games from the Swedish publisher 3CG, so here is a teach and play of one of their east front games I wanted to share, here is Iskra :

@fredserval.bsky.socialVery different scale from Downfall, here you're just playing a few weeks of battle. It's all about manoeuvre and supplies. But it's a lot easier, and a ton of fun if you're into those kind of games.
@fredserval.bsky.socialYou did, and you were right.
@fredserval.bsky.socialDoing some 'homework' between meetings, trying Traces of Victory from @vucasimulations.bsky.social - so far so good, small footprint, simple rules, great production and a lot of cool decisions.
@fredserval.bsky.socialIn two hours @colewehrle.bsky.social will be live on Homo Ludens to chat about the new edition of An Infamous Traffic, published by @buriedgiantstudios.bsky.social - join us and take part in the chat 🫵

@waitmanwbeorn.comReposted by @fredserval.bsky.socialI always knew these books were garbage, but I never looked up the author, Franz Kurowski, until today. Aaaaaand...yikes, y'all.
@turcanmarie.bsky.socialReposted by @fredserval.bsky.socialUn monde parallèle où la préfecture de police parle de « violences » en montrant du serum phy, un foulard, des boules quiès et des paires de lunettes.
Lundi dernier, un policier a fracturé la mâchoire d'un adolescent de 14 ans avec un tir de lance-grenade Cougar : www.mediapart.fr/journal/fran...
@fredserval.bsky.socialThe original design was a block game.
@fredserval.bsky.socialFor the next livestream on Homo Ludens I'll chat with @colewehrle.bsky.social about the second edition of An infamous Traffic. We'll be live on Wednesday, 9pm French time, 3pm EST, a perfect opportunity to ask all your questions and have a sneak peek at the game 👀💨

@fredserval.bsky.socialSunday game of The War of the Ring is becoming sort of a ritual. A Tolkien mass? ☦️ ⚔️

@fredserval.bsky.socialTomorrow night, at 9pm French time, 3pm EST, @joedewhurst.bsky.social and I will continue our campaign of The Guerrilla Generation "Resisting Reagan". Very cool and unique way to play this new COIN multipack from @gmtgames.bsky.social

@theoldkingscrown.bsky.socialReposted by @fredserval.bsky.socialGot to do a bunch of sketching in the Artist Alley, got to meet some incredibly kind & lovely people, got to chat on a panel with Reiner Knizia and got interviewed on a big fancy television set about The Old King’s Crown. What a surreal day. What an honour. Going to have a big sleep & cry.
@hawkanddovegames.bsky.socialReposted by @fredserval.bsky.socialA brief reflection on my experience last week at the Open de France des Jeux d'Histoire. It was a great experience, and I'm happy to have attended!
@fredserval.bsky.socialYes, I find this very annoying too. I'll try to track down an AH version, they can't be very expensive.
