Hey -
I don't know about others, but I am missing the forum games that used to run here and on the FFG forum. They became a part of my life, etc, and I valued the regular interaction.
I've looked around at other forums to see if those kinds of games are played elsewhere, but I have so far come up empty. Are there places where people play turn based strategy multi player games for free?
If not, do folks want to play another game here? I understand that the forum is a much quieter place than the old one - is that just a discord consequence?
Thoughts, comments, suggestions, feelings?
I am always interested in playing games! I don't know of anywhere else to play them. I think it's a mix of Discord and the fact that this isn't linked to from the official product page, so it's not as easily found.
I know there are several forums devoted to Mafia, but not everyone's a fan (understandably.) Otherwise no, not familiar with other choices.
I'd be down to play something though. It's a pity we can't just open a wormhole or two and meet for board games...
I liked playing that game between GNIP, LTD and me (can't remember the name now). I think it was helpful for me that part of it took place on Discord because it spurred me to play a little quicker.
I would enjoy playing something if the rules are simple enough. I couldn't wrap my head around the 3D warfare game. I also would prefer not to be required to keep track of lots of private information.
I think you must mean "Czar of the South" Bertie - everything was public knowledge and we had simultaneous movement without a GM.
I've certainly missed these games.
I have an idea for a game that would also serve as a kind of narrative generation system. But I've not put it together as yet.
I would also appreciate a worm-hole Jabbawookie. Perhaps when I come over for Worlds one day I'll make a number of stops across the various states to visit you all and sleep on couches, etc.
Cheer
My current idea is to run a game set in this universe - as the players make decisions and interact I will use that as fodder for developing stories and short videos to build up a youtube channel and become internet famous!
What do you guys think? Any interest in helping by pretending to be mice at war?
I'm game.
Looks fun!
Some rules in draft... https://daveswargames.blogspot.com/2021/07/war-of-succheesion-rules.html
Seems cool so far. What is Bravado 2x2? Edit: Never mind, I just saw your other post.
Thanks.
I'll keep posting stuff here, but the discussion etc will move over the discord.

I have updated the rules on the blogsite.
