Couple games I'm not too familiar with, wondering if you could shed a little more light on. What more can you tell me about #ManeuverWarfare and Shakespeare's First Folio?

#Maneuver Warfare is a deck builder card game designed by a retired USMC Major (also the GM)

Not collectible, but customizable with a lot of cards in the box

Does have shared terrain the players fight over, plus logistics, C2, and cyber dimensions


Don't know much about First Folio, but it's a new one from Fort Circle where you're racing to be the first person to publish Shakespeare's plays

As I plot out events (so far, they're all ACD events), is there a raffle this year and, if so, what time on Sunday?

The plan is 10am on Sunday again.

Note:  "plan"   ;D

That's a good enough plan for me to know not to schedule something from 9 to noon on Sunday :)

Origins 2024 Countdown! Origins War College Previews

Quote
The Origins War College hosts a wide variety of panels, seminars, and discussions around military history, military affairs, and current events.  Once upon a time, our CPX’s were a part of the War College program, before the Wargame HQ was started.

This year, we wanted to leverage 2 things that have been neglected for years:

1/  The wargame designers attending Origins are all intelligent folks with fascinating insights about modeling conflicts, so we wanted to pull together a few panels with them to allow the audience a chance to ask their own questions about game design, inspirations, ideas, etc.
2/  It’s been years since we had the companies at Origins give an update about their companies with the ability for the audience to interact with them.  We’re giving them all a platform to showcase whatever they want about the company – recent releases, upcoming plans, soliciting playtesters, etc – and for the audience to ask some questions of them as well.

please note: that seminar listing is just the Dragoons-sponsored events at the OWC.  There's another 2 full rooms running 14-16 hours/day of other seminars and presentations
