Playing @Bublublock's phenomenal 'Blood & Treasure' at #CSWExpo. John Butterfield, @HBuchanan2 and I play rapacious defense contractors competing for riches during the US/Afghan War.
Victory in 'Angola' at #CSWExpo: @HBuchanan2's FAPLA Death Star makes a run up the coast to São António, causing irreparable damage to @MeepleLady's valiant capitalist running dog FNLA forces. @MultiMa
Ongoing 'Angola' at #CSWExpo....
- @RobFactor: "I thought there was only a 1-value unit there.
- @MeepleLady: "Yeah, you did."

@MultiManPub
The Battle of Ambriz between @MeepleLady (FLNA) and @HBuchanan2 (FAPLA) ended up in a knockout victory for the powerhouse Commie forces. 'Angola' at #CSWExpo.
It begins. @MultiManPub's Angola with 3 wily opponents: @MeepleLady @SobhiYoussef2 and @HBuchanan2 with overwatch provided by @Bublublock. FLNA starting positions *highly* dangerous to Cabinda.
'A Most Fearful Sacrifice' once again at #CSWExpo. More Gettysburg. More surrounded. More demoralized! @MarkHoltWalker @HBuchanan2
Confederate generals in 'A Most Fearful Sacrifice' now moving to flank Cemetery Hill in a play for Culp's Hill. Un. Stoppable. #sendhelp #CSWExpo @MarkHoltWalker @HBuchanan2
Cemetery Hill in doubt at CSWExpo. Rebels are pushing deep in my defenses.

Morning Gettysburg pain at #CSWExpo in 'A Most Fearful Sacrifice' as the Union loses nearly it's entire battery of artillery and the Rebs have a field day in town. @MarkHoltWalker @HBuchanan2

Like so many of you have experienced, the unfathomable happened to me today and I lost my dearest friend, little Zhukov (aka "Goodie"). He passed so very peacefully at 11:31am and I'm eternally grateful for that. RIP, my bestie. You have been an incomparable joy to me. 🥺

"How's that for irony?"
The rapier-like wit that SPI staff emitted in the 70s is beyond priceless. I'm sad to never have met Redmond A. Simonsen, for he must have been a giant amongst mortals. #70sEnergyCrisis @RBMStudio1 @markherman54
