Quotes (from this video)
  • 1944 Battle of the Bulge is fantastic it's just a little bit over half price
  • this is a really fun accessible hex and counters game that it's one of the I recommend to people if you're looking to get into hex and counters games this is a really good one
  • Soviet Dawn i' I I don't know anything about this game other than I've seen a bunch of people playing and I've heard good things about it
  • although we have one month left to go what has been your game your historical game your historical war game of 2024 so far
  • now if you don't play historical games or war games that's fine put your game of the year that's good as well but I'll leave you to define the criteria for 2024 is it your best game that was released in 2024 that's okay or the best game that you played for the first time in 2024 that's okay too totally up to you post Down Below in the comments entries is limited to one per person

Quotes (from this video)
  • one of the things I try to do when I I build a kit is can I get all the counters in their trays and then get them back in the box without there being what I we call a lid lift
  • these trays have a very thin spine which means two things one it's very easy to see everything that's in the trays you don't have thick walls that are kind of blocking it
  • I want the setup to be fast
