Sorry for the radio silence.

With the GAMA Trade Show looming on the horizon, I’ve been keeping my head down over a half-dozen prototypes, surfacing maybe once a week to bleat, “Anyone want to help playtest this game? Hello?” then plunging back into it.

And for Easter, I was out of town.

(Not that being out of town provided any reprieve. I brought one prototype to work on, and another to playtest with my father-in-law. Progress was made on both fronts.)

I’ll try to be better with the posting this week.

To start the week off right, I’d like to point out the latest product I’ve uploaded for our friends at Skirmisher: the classic Floor Games by H.G. Wells. I read it while uploading it and found myself laughing as the author rails against the sorry state of toys, the shops that sell them, and the woefully uninformed uncles who purchase them. While the book isn’t as, er, rules heavy as its companion, Little Wars, it’s still an entertaining read and a glimpse into the mind that is credited with creating the modern war game.
