I never thought this would happen... I entered the top 100 wargames on @boardgamegeek.com with Gest. Thanks so much to @joedewhurst.bsky.social for helping me make this game actually good, Chechu and Robert for making it look awesome, and @gmtgames.bsky.social for believing in me.

A woman recording an ICE agent tells him "Shame on you."

The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?"

"Learned what?" she asks

Then he knocks her phone out of her hand

A Very Civil Whist is @fredserval.bsky.social's take on the English Civil War and trick-taking. This one is excellent. My review: spacebiff.com/2026/01/09/a...

This is a great book, I recommend it to people interested in the ACW but also anyone interested in how historical myths are created and spread.

I wrote a review of it some years back www.stuartellisgorman.com/blog/searchi...
