I'm interested! You can PM me.
I'm in Oakland, CA. I can see the cargo cranes at the port from my office window. It's not quite the port of sailing ships I like to imagine it was 150 years ago (I'm not even sure Oakland was a...
If there is going to be any drinking and war gaming, I insist that I be given the honor of losing my fleet and my consciousness first!
That seems likely if they publish an "ancient ships" edition for roman galleys etc." Makes sense to me at least!
Based on how quickly the first printing sold out, I imagine that at least a few manufacturers are considering adding a line of 1/1000 scale terrain. Give it a year, tops.
I also have no idea what...
Looking at this purely from a business standpoint, I think Ares' took a big gamble going with 1:1000 scale, but it has paid off handsomely, and may pay off even more handsomely going forward. I...
Definitely an inspiration for those of us still on the fence about painting our ships.
I'm interested. If it hasn't sold yet. Pm me.
They look great Keith! I liked the ones in my package, but these are definitely a step up.
Finally got a tracking number, and my package(s) are scheduled for delivery on Wednesday, the 15th. Is it possible I will be last? Could be!
With the success of Spartacus the TV series, I wonder what interest there would be for a Roman Chariot race/combat game. Could be worth exploring...
I don't disagree with Bobby's point, but let me add this retro-active disclaimer:
I know this article is likely to generate all sorts of political rants one way or the other, but I only posted it...
For those of you who are interested in the American Civil War:

My understanding is that FLGS's are slowly dwindling. It's a bit ironic that as gaming goes mainstream, FLGS do not always share in the good fortune. The rise of the internet and mass merchandisers...
Have you looked at Target on-line lately?

And take a look at Wal-Mart on-line:

There's a lot of conspiracy in that theory. I'm not going to get into the speculation game - I can't get into Steve and Phil's heads. But it seems to discount the fact that Phil point blank said...
I sometimes go to the Boy Scout store in San Leandro as my son is in the Cub Scouts. Too bad you aren't still around, so I'd have automatically have someone to play SoG with!
Very happy for you! Looks like that theory of the Southwest US being at the bottom of the list doesn't hold up (and thankfully so, for you). I'd complain that the Left Coast is at the bottom of the...
That's just it - it's a re-boot, not a re-print. This is neither a good thing or a bad thing, it just reflects the market reality. The tiny number of players who want old school Car Wars to be...
No more or less than Sails of Glory or any other miniatures game. Considering the huge number of new Minis games on KS, and how successful they are (all the largest KS game projects are...
Phil Reed was very clear that they don't anticipate having miniatures in the base game - they will have die cut counters (better than the old cardstock counters from the 80's, at least). The goal...
Do you have a source for that? Looking at the SJGames website, all seems to be on track for them to focus on Car Wars in 2014, although Phil Reed was clear that this will not be a quick project -...
If we're going to travel down memory lane with Car Wars, I'll brag a bit that I'm listed as a playtester in the Car Wars Compendium (albeit with my name mis-spelled). I spent way too much of my...
Kind of like matured savings bonds - IF bonds had cannons that shoot at each other to little bits and allow the giftee to pretend they are Lucky Jack Aubrey about to capture a Spanish treasure ship. ...
