If you’re Canadian, it looks like BoardGameBliss has almost all the Blind Swords USCW games on sale for their Spring Clearance.

Dear wargamers.social,

A couple of weeks ago, I roped you into joining me for the "Men of Iron Tripack" P500 reprint.

I'm sorry.

Found some dude in Ohio who had a new copy for $95 and cancelled my P500.

I'm really sorry. (not really).

Sincerely,
Colin

Dear Wargamers.social Mastodon,

I did not pick up the Men of Iron tripack the first time around.

It's up for P500 again.

Please preorder a copy so I can get mine faster.

TYVM. :)

Heading into T5 as France in my first game of HiS now. (It's been 4 weeks).

After I took back Bordeaux from the Hapsburgs, (with a strong alliance from the Ottoman Empire), I laid siege to and captured Barthelona (spelt the way its pronounced).

Hapsburg has sued for peace.

I am no longer at war with anyone... but fear England's home card, as Edward is alive. But if Henry decides to start shit, I'll be ready.

Can anyone push me/ or pull me off the ledge on this? https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/322198/silent-war-ijn-second-edition

As Commander of US Pacific Fleet Submarines, face the whole Japanese navy in WW2

I have made a pact with the devil.

I betrayed my Scottish brethren to the English so that I could get safe passage for the ship in the North Sea down to the Bay of Biscay to fight the Hapsburgs.

I have taken back Bordeaux, but Edinburgh has fallen into English hands.

The shame and guilt is immense.

The English came at me again. Two squadrons. I intercepted… just enough at 9.

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 rolls 4d6…. Zero hits.
🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 rolls 2d6…


Zero hits!

Defender wins ties and Henry is repelled and his fleet retreats back to London… for the third time!

I have wasted so many of England’s CPs now, I’m starting to feel bad.

It's already begun.

Bordeaux captured.

I am France in my 1st game of "Here I Stand". I just fought the English fleet in the North Sea and won... twice. And I just destroyed the HRE's attempt to leave port in the Gulf of Lyon.

I know my luck is about to run out... so I am writing this on Mastodon for posterity.

My next update will be: "Edinburgh has fallen. Bordeaux captured. My ships sunk."
