Podcast appearances and mentions of Richard Borg

Fall in, soldiers! It's time to slap a green helmet on, grab a rifle and go see what's going on in Europe. Andrew and Pete have played a lot of this WWII version of Richard Borg's Command & Colors system, and it's about time they talked about it. Plus, they are joined by beloved designer of the Undaunted series, War Chest and more, David Thompson! War, D&D, input and output randomness. The three of us cover it all.   Follow David on Twitter here All of our links

"It doesn't take a lot of elephants to have a scary amount of elephant on the battlefield."

El 6 de junio de 1944 ha quedado escrito en la Historia de la Humanidad como uno de los días más importantes del siglo XX. En las playas de Normandía tuvo lugar una de las batallas decisivas de la II Guerra Mundial, aquella que lograría abrir el frente occidental a los aliados y obligaría a la Alemania nazi a replegarse aún más. Muchos historiadores lo marcan como el punto de inflexión para la definitiva caída del III Reich. Por ello, hoy abrimos un nuevo episodio sobre historia que va a estar dividido en dos partes. Por un lado nos centraremos en los hechos históricos de aquel 6 de junio y analizaremos cómo se gestó la operación, cómo plantearon la batalla aliados y alemanes y cuales fueron los puntos clave del enfrentamiento. Tras el intermedio pasaremos a un aspecto más lúdico y nuestro amigo Claudio Yoldi nos comentará los wargames más destacados sobre El desembarco de Normandía. Un episodio especial para una fecha especial en homenaje a aquellos valientes que se enfrentaron a la muerte para luchar por la libertad en Europa.

After a purgatorial thirteen months, Mark will be released from his Cain-like wanderings and allowed to repatriate to Kingston where he will get to be home. He figures that if Immanuel Kant got to be world famous before the age of global communications without leaving a 50 kilometer radius of his hometown, he has more than paid his dues. If anyone wants him to attend a function in the future, they had best plan on getting married and/or dying in close proximity to Mark's home.01:43 AYURIS: Lost Ruins of Arnak (Elwen & Mín, CGE, 2020)Games Played Last Week:03:51 -Foundations of Rome (Emerson Matsuuichi, Arcane Wonders, 2022)07:05 -Golem (Flaminia Brasini, Virginio Gigli, & Simone Luciani, Cranio Creations, 2021)10:56 -Token Terrors: Battlegrounds (John de Campos & Phillip Doccolo, Terrible Games, 2020)16:50 -Switch & Signal (David Thompson, KOSMOS, 2020)19:13 -Unsettled (Marc Neidlinger & Tom Mattson, Orange Nebula, 2021)27:09 -Ark Nova (Mathias Wigge, Feuerland Spiele, 2021)28:21 -The Bridges of Shangri-La (Leo Colovini, Uberplay, 2003)32:09 -Merchants of the Dark Road (Brian Suhre, Elf Creek Games, 2022)36:09 -Paper Tales (Masato Uesugi, Stronghold, 2017)38:31 -Memoir '44 (Richard Borg, Days of Wonder, 2004)41:52 -Iwari (Michael Schacht, ThunderGlyph Games, 2020)News (and why it doesn't matter):44:51 Ghost Adventure: spinning, grabbing, tilting! 45:57 Uwe Rosenberg's Atiwa (Ghana)47:42 Idavoll for Nidavellir: giants, Aesir, and more49:33 Terra Mystica minus tracks becomes Terra Nova?50:24 Terraforming Mars: Dice Game

To be clear, we're not giving or receiving any awards this week--rather we're discussing their use, possible abuse, and impact on the hobby. Were we to deserve an award for this episode, though, clearly it would be for the quality and quantity of top-notch segues. Play style leads to play style, mechanism to mechanism, all flowing as naturally and as smoothly as a natural and smooth thing.

Emma and Gil welcome Anya Combs and Luke Crane from Kickstarter to discuss how crowdfunding is changing, especially in light of recent events. Anya: anya@kickstarter.com, games@kickstarter.com, @anyayna Luke: @burning_luke, burningwheel.com Note that this episode was recorded on March 25, 2020, so if we talk about things happening "a few weeks ago," we're referring to late February/early March. This wouldn't normally be an important detail, but things are changing a lot quickly these days. SHOW NOTES 0m00s: Playtest safely online with Gil and Emma! 1m28s: For those who have never heard it, the MC5's "Kick Out the Jams" set a template for punk rock's sound well before its time. (Explicit language warning)  3m52s: More info about the Burning Wheel roleplaying system.  8m32s: The original Alien Frontiers and Cards Against Humanity  projects. Both were modest successes. Double Fine Adventure, Wasteland 2, Shadowrun Returns, and Shenmue were much larger successes. 9m48s: The original Kingdom Death: Monster was a wild success, but the second edition was one of the largest Kickstarter Games campaigns ever run. 9m56s: We recorded this episode before Frosthaven launched. As of the time of this episode's release, it has raised over $7 million USD. 10m31s: Gil's Kickstarter projects are all visible here.  12m39s: The Dispel Dice Kickstarter project. 17m23s: The F*** Yeah Dice Kickstarter project (Explicit language warning, of course). 16m56s: Itten made the unique game Stonehenge and the Sun. Oink and Bouken don't have any Kickstarter projects, but their games are worth your attention for their distinctive look and style. Luke also brings up Bouken's game Diet & Friends. 17m17s: W.M. Akers has a series of baseball simulators called Deadball. 18m23s: You can find Emma's weekly news show on Twitch every Friday at 2 pm Pacific. 20m00s: Here's the Fantastic Factories Kickstarter project. Here's the Kickstarter for Coloma, designed by Jonny Pac, who was on Ludology 221: The Pac Less Traveled.  20m36s: Here's the Gladius Kickstarter project.  21m51s: More info about the Skylanders video game, which discontinued support in 2017.  24m42s: Here's the Multiverse Kickstarter project. (Incidentally, if you're interested in a platform similar to Multiverse, check out Roll20). 27m34s: More info about the Jackbox party games.  28m20s: The Spaceteam Kickstarter project (Note that this is for the original video game, not the card game inspired by it). 30m10s: More info about Twine. We go more into detail about this platform in Ludology 217: What IF?  30m43s: More info about AVOWEL, the mobile version of Wordsy.  31m05s: The latest Chronicles of Crime Kickstarter.  32m46s: Commands & Colors by Richard Borg is a family of outstanding light wargames that includes BattleLore and Memoir '44.  34m33s: More information about Kickstarter's Make100 and ZineQuest initiatives. 43m16s: More information about the newest God of War game https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/God_of_War_(2018_video_game). 43m36s: Animal Crossing! Hoo hoo! That's a link to more info about New Horizons, the newest game in the series. There's a lot of interesting discussion going on about the game and how timely it is, how its soothing imagery is perfect for the current times, and how it offers an escapist fantasy (literally escaping to a desert island) to people who are stuck at home. 47m13s: Ankh, the newest CMON game, is at over $1 million USD from about 14,000 backers at the time of this episode release. Tapeworm has not yet launched at the time of this episode release. 46m45s: Pax Pamir's most recent Kickstarter. It's from Cole Wehrle (and his brother Drew), whom you heard two weeks ago on Ludology 222: Johnny Fairplay. 47m06s: The Sea of Stars Kickstarter project, and the Swords 'n Magic and Stuff project. 52m34s: Anya performs in the Hungry March Band, the Funkrust Brass Band, and the Brooklyn Wind Symphony. 55m26s: Of course, Team Ludology does not subscribe to Luke's spicy hot take here, and we're pretty sure Rob Daviau has played D&D more than once. :) Rob was guest on Ludology 70: Risky Business. If you want to hear him GM, check out the actual play podcast Story Roost and its first story arc, The Unmarked.

Et dobbelt op på interviews fra Spiel 2019. Først en snak med Will Townshend, stifter af engelske PSC Games. Firmaets “store” spil på Essen var Blitzkrieg! af Paolo Mori (Kristian dåner næsten), hvor man kan tackle hele 2. Verdenskrig på 20 minutter. Derudover har de også på kort tid fået store designere som Richard Borg, Martin Wallace (Kristian dåner igen) og Ian Brody i stalden og står bag en lang række interessante moderne krigsspil af varierende sværhedsgrad. Herefter snakker Kristian og Bo med designer og udgiver Evan Derrick fra Van Ryder Games. Det amerikanske firma står bag blandt andet Detective: City of Angels, krigsspillet Frontier Wars og så Kristians suprise hit fra Essen, heistspillet The Big Score, hvor kriminelle bagmænd kæmpe om at kuppe og rage til sig. Papstinensers tur til Spiel 2019 skete i samarbejde med Bastard Cafe – stor tak for det! Du kan også fortsat støtte op om Papstinenser på papstinenser.10er.dk, med en 10er eller et andet beløb, for hver ny episode. Pengene går til at forbedre og tune på podcasten og udbrede budskabet om Papstinenser og brætspil som hobby.

It is a timeless classic board game in which you predict the number of dices that ALL players rolled. Fun and quick party game for up to 6 players that can be explained in less than 3 minutes.

It's time for Episode 41 of the MBS Podcast! This month, Greg and Andy dig into the new space combat board game RED ALERT, designed by Richard Borg and published by PSC Games. https://www.commandsandcolors.net/redalert/

Names are powerful. The Spiel des Jahres means "game of the year" simpliciter, but for years we know that the juries have been casting a narrower and narrower net of what games thay would consider. It has become more of a specialized imprint, which is fine--but it's strange that the name still inspires such cachet. Anything with rules in excess of 3 or so pages seems now to be firmly beyond the pale as far as the SdJ is concerned. Ah, well, times change, and we are prone to fits of curmudgeonly behavior.

We humble ourselves before you, O merciful audience, so as to lay bare our sins against the gaming world. Granted we toil as rules explainers on the behalf of ungrateful vermin who do not appreciate our labours, but nonetheless we take full responsibility for mildly inconveniencing the filthy ingrates who can't be bothered to read a rulebook.

Currencies drive many things, perhaps most things. HATE is driven by a currency called Savagery, which I believe is floated on the international market and its exchange rate fluctuates daily. We here at So Very Wrong About Games fuel our episodes with Snark, which is pegged conveniently to the Canadian Dollar. As a consequence, when some of you might be tempted to correct Mark on the name of the 1987 Richard Halliwell design ("um, actually, it's Block Mania, not Block Panic"), you are only making them stronger.AYURIS: Warhammer Underworlds: Shadespire (David Sanders, Games Workshop, 2017) 1m54sGames Played Last Week: -HATE 4m34s (Raphaël Guiton, Jean-Baptiste Lullien, Alexandru Olteanu, & Nicolas Raoult, CMON, 2019)-Climb! 7m08s (Benoit Michaud, Le Scorpion Masqué, 2008)-Siege of the Citadel 9m32s (Richard Borg, Eric M.

Aún con algo de resaca tras las Jornadas Ludo Ergo Sum de este año, nos sentamos a la mesa para grabar otra entrega de nuestro podcast con los Ilustres Irregulares: Srta. Bea, Sr. Pirrakas, Sr. Raúl y misteriosa Srta. Adler para poner en común todos los juegos y aditamentos lúdicos que hemos visto por plataformas de crowdfunding como Kickstarter o Verkami. Además retomamos la sección de la Srta. Bea "Encuentros en la tercera Ronda". Nos habla de la eterna lucha entre eurogamers y ameritrashers desde el punto de vista de los "no -jugones". Como guinda comentamos los juegos que pudimos probar en las #LES2016. Lista de juegos de mesa de este archivo: Endangered Orphans of Condyle Cove: un juego de mesa para 2 a 3 jugadores híbrido entre juego de cartas, tablero y horror que, según sus autores, debe ser ignorado a toda costa, a menos que disfrutes con los juegos de estrategia desafiantes pero fáciles de aprender a jugar. Sharknado: aunque el proyecto ha sido cancelado por el momento, no podíamos dejar de hablaros de él. Es un juego cooperativo de tablero en el que le plantaremos cara a un sharkanado que no hace más que moverse y lanzar tiburones. Siege of the Citadel: la primera edición de los 90, incluyó novedades como el juego cooperativo, la mejora de persones etc. Ahora el autor original, Richard Borg, se ha unido a Eric M Lang y a Kevin Wilson para renovar un clásico de miniaturas. Tiny Epic Galaxies: Beyond the Black: Expansión para el Pequeñas Grandes Galaxias. Añade nuevas mecánicas de juego así como más cartas de planeta y objetivos. No es autojugable, es decir, que necesitas el juego base. Sweet Spot: The Tennis Card Game: juego rápido de cartas en el que simularemos un partido de tenis individual o de dobles. Cuencos: ¿cuencos? sí, cuencos ¿dónde dejáis vosotros las fichas de los juegos si no? Sagrada: Es un juego de dados, que se juega en 10 rondas. Trataremos de construir un vidriera de la Sagrada Familia. War and Pieces: Más que un juego es un juguete, pero tiene ¡catapultas de juguete! Vengance: Vengeance, es un juego de minis, con una estética al más puro estilo Tarantino. Nos han torturado, nos hemos escapado y ahora nos las van a pagar. The Refuge: A Race For Survival:un juego competitivo para 2 a 6 jugadores en el que seremos supervivientes en medio de un holocausto zombi. Trataremos de llegar a un sitio seguro llamado “el refugio”, aunque sólo queda sitio para uno de nosotros... Además queremos saber. ¿Vosotros sois más eurogamers, más ameritrashers o le dais a todo?

In this episode of The Long View, I'm thrilled to be joined once again by returning contributor Joel Eddy as we discuss the game BattleLore, and the Commands and Colors system in general.

How does BattleLore (Second Edition) compare to the original? These questions and more are explored in this episode. Thanks, of course, to my sponsor www.gamesurplus.com for their continued support of The Long View, and to The Dice Tower Network! Thanks, as well, to all of YOU for listening!
