It’s a great local convention for all sorts of gaming, they’re on the rebuild post-covid, but it’s always been a great event, lots of fun. Give it a shot! February 22-25th. #NJ#NewJersey#games#gameconvention

This week we shall present Top 5 videos published on The Boardgames Chronicle in 2023. All of them were positively received and were very popular among wargaming community. We start with the Great Battles of Julius Caesar and playthrough of Nicopolis 48 BC. Enjoy!
The fourth place in our Top 5 Videos is taken by one of my favorite games - Commands and Colors Ancients - and material showing how you can play it solitaire using GMT's Card Driven Solo System. Enjoy!
Mark has terminal cancer, and has made a ton of #wargaming videos you should know about. Let's get him to at least 1000 subscribers, and push him past that milestone. It isn't much compared to a lot of #wargame content creators, but he deserves it. Go watch his videos, enjoy the #wargames he plays and talks about and go subscribe. #HexesForever
Registration has opened for this year's CircleDC #wargames & historical games convention. This year it's being held at the Planet Word Museum to allow for attendance to increase. I went last year and had a blast.
We had another game of Dirtside II, this time trying out a more infantry focused game. The take away is that I probably need more terrain. #wargames#wargaming
I should mention that if you are interested in Epic/Battletech/Ogre scale miniatures, SJ Games is doing a project for a new set of tanks that I’m of course getting two of.
I put down some of my thoughts on Generative AI in Wargames, a topic that really got under my skin thanks to a Facebook post. Please join me as I lose friends and followers. https://molotovcockatiel.com/generative-ai-in-wargames/
I never met Bryan Ansell, but as a writer I’ve had the honour of adding a couple of bricks to the edifice whose foundations he helped lay down. RIP, sir, and thanks. #GamesWorkshop#Warhammer#wargames
