Hello, Ray and Welcome!

Thanks for that info, its nice to know stuff like that. Generally speaking we do try and offer constructive criticism and I have no doubt that the hard core gamer's here will be happy to act as sounding boards for games that you are working on.

Hey Ray. Thanks for posting. Sorry if we came across as overly harsh. I do like the subjects/time periods of your games and will definitely consider them in the future.

Being able to Google shit better than your clients is a legit career skill.

Thank you Bob! Yes I am very happy to get all the crit I can, the more i f*ck up the better I will get I suppose ;) but I dont mind you guys leaving crit at all, I appreciate it and need it

Starting with the 5th game on 1864 in Denmark, counters will be done by a pro instead of me, just saved me a lot of money to get started to do all my own layouts and counters for the first few. I am clearly not talented in that department, but I think they are just about as functional if not a little more so for playing the games, if that's any bit reassuring :)

+10 What Mirth said  ;)

I'd be very interested in a 1864 game as I have special interest in the period from the first war with Denmark in 1854 up to and including the Franco-Prussian war.

Few people know the central role that the 'stache played in the planning for the German victory in 1870. Von Moltke credited him with both the victory at Sedan and with making a tasty pot of tea every afternoon.

I actually don't really like games.

If I didn't know you lot better, I'd say you were extracting the urine.

I'm about to put Compass Games on my naughty list. I still haven't received a replacement counter sheet for Absolute Victory despite two emails to them. It sucks because they make some darn good games.  :(

Huh. Sort of a Civilization meets LARP. Interesting.
