The last month has been a bit wargame-lite. I've gone into a different role at work which has added 75-90 minutes a day in travel / morning prep, so I've spent less time painting and playing and more time looking at boardgames online!
New purchases include:
Littoral Commander Indo-Pacific and Littoral Commander Baltic. These are going to be great additions to the collection. Have played Indo-Pacific once in person with four players and once over VASSAL with two. Plenty to go into with these near-future warfare studies but that's for another time.
Memoir 44 battle map expansions Through Jungle and Desert, Sword of Stalingrad, and Tigers in the Snow. The ready-to-play maps are just so convenient that it would have been criminal not to get them! I have plans afoot for multiplayer games so these will make that goal much simpler.
A Victory Awaits. The great Tetsuya Nakamura's version of Barbarossa on three maps using the A Victory Lost system. I decided to bite the bullet on this - A Victory Lost is still the most fun I've had with a WWII operational game, and while it's a bit tough on the wallet importing this from the States I couldn't allow it to sell out without getting a copy. Will I get to play through the whole thing? Not sure, but I hope so. Also playable one map at a time, so will be good value for solo play.
Lots here (or on the way here) to keep me busy.
Anyway, just about time to turn in so I can get up bright and early for my commute!
