@lucretiel.meReposted by @wehrlegig.gamesFinally played the full 8-round scenario of John Company by @wehrlegig.games. Really great stuff, I think it’s my favorite way to play now
@arnovandevelde.bsky.socialReposted by @wehrlegig.gamesThe Folks over at @wehrlegig.games are running a kickstarter for their new game, Infamous Traffic.
Seeing I have had the chance to play it a good bit already and I think it is worth checking out. It made sense to drop some thoughts to help people find out what it is about.
@heavycardboard.bsky.socialReposted by @wehrlegig.gamesWell, hello there! #animfamoustraffic
@buriedgiantstudios.bsky.socialReposted by @wehrlegig.gamesHave we tempted you with the thematic and historical argument of the game, but you just need to see it played for yourself? Them Wehrle boys are at it again! Join Cole has he gives his rolling teach of An Infamous Traffic and see if these brothers can keep the war at bay.
@wehrlegig.gamesThanks for the backing (again!) and enjoy the deep dive into JC. It's a big 'un!
@seanfranco.bsky.socialReposted by @wehrlegig.games🎲📦 Mail call! John Company 2e (@colewehrle.bsky.social / @wehrlegig.games). I enjoy Pax Pamir 2e, so it’s time to see what this is all about.
I actually got this a couple days ago, on the day that the ks for An Infamous Traffic launched, so it was neat backing one and getting the other all at once.
@danthurot.bsky.socialReposted by @wehrlegig.gamesSome guy on BGG wants to know why Christian missionaries increase the demand for opium in An Infamous Traffic. Me: Hey, I'm a professor of Christian history! I can answer this! Guy: I don't like your answer. I don't believe it. Those missionaries wouldn't have done that. ... okey dokey
@rollplusfun.bsky.socialReposted by @wehrlegig.gamesA great conversation, not only about the game but also about creating historical games in general, from research to aesthetics to design and production. Well worth the watch!
@colewehrle.bsky.socialReposted by @wehrlegig.gamesI'm live with Fred in just a couple of minutes. Come join us!
@wehrlegig.gameslol we're going as fast as we can! The PnP files and online mods of the campaign prototype are live if you can't wait until we're finished with production too : )
@wehrlegig.gamesIf you are curious to see how AIT plays, check out this gameplay overview video from @lordoftheboard.bsky.social
@petewiss.bsky.socialReposted by @wehrlegig.gamesTalking with Cole makes me excited about playing and making games. Also I’m still thinking about that play I had of the new Traffic at HistCon. The folks at @wehrlegig.games have made their most immediate and accessible game yet but it has all the sharp edges of a good business game.
@petewiss.bsky.socialReposted by @wehrlegig.gamesNew @decisionspace.bsky.social is a chat with @colewehrle.bsky.social about economic games and An Infamous Traffic. Come for Cole's recs of hidden gems, stay for a surprising discussion about the emotional core of how these nasty games reflect humanity.
@nakedcardboard.comReposted by @wehrlegig.gamesI just backed An Infamous Traffic: Second Edition by Cole Wehrle on @kickstarter.com www.kickstarter.com/projects/col... @wehrlegig.games
@danthurot.bsky.socialReposted by @wehrlegig.gamesI'm relieved to report that the long-awaited second edition of An Infamous Traffic is even better than the original — in gameplay, in narrative, in clarity. My preview: spacebiff.com/2026/10/05/a...
@keithlaw.bsky.socialReposted by @wehrlegig.gamesi’ve had this game on my wishlist/want in trade list for years
@mattmartens.bsky.socialReposted by @wehrlegig.gamesThis particular trailer felt like such a great example of the collaborative work happening at Buried Giant. Many different skillsets came together to make something I think is pretty good! Anyways, go back our game!

@marcelineleiman.bsky.socialReposted by @wehrlegig.games@colewehrle.bsky.social is a man who needs no further glazing in his career, but I will happily support any project he launches!
It’s one of the games I was just slightly too late in my exploration to get the first edition. So glad I’ll be given a chance to try the game now!
@petewiss.bsky.socialReposted by @wehrlegig.gamesInstantly backed this. The version I played at HistCon North this summer was excellent and apparently it continues to be improved by the team. We'll have episode of @decisionspace.bsky.social tomorrow with @colewehrle.bsky.social talking about the economic/business game heritage of this one.
@wehrlegig.gamesA cutthroat business game about the dramatic rise of the opium trade in 19th-century China. Live now on Kickstarter. www.kickstarter.com/projects/col...
