China's War is going to be crazy, from a COIN perspective. You have three indigenous factions, one of which (the Communists) is guerilla-oriented; and then you have one invader faction (the Japanese), which has no guerillas, but instead has troops and even police cubes. It's like the opposite of Andean Abyss

I received Freshwater Fly last night, and spent some time setting it up and messing with it. It seems amazing and I can't wait to play it

I also got Coldwater Crown, their other fishing game, as an add-on, but I haven't even opened that yet

(I also got the Fantasy Trip Adventures book, which, is just a book)

Edge of Darkness: Cliffs of Coldharbor is an expansion to Edge of Darkness, a deckbuilder that is also a cardbuilder

i.e. not only do your build a deck over the course of the game, but in fact you build the cards that go in it

I do not actually have the base game! But of course the expansion Kickstarter has an "also get the base game" option (Root did this as well)

Apparently each card is itself a three-pocket sleeve

No that's wrong. Each card is a sleeve. The "parts" of the cards go into the sleeve, and the "parts" have transparent sections on them so that the other "parts" will show through

You can see it on this (skip to 7:45 to see them playing)

https://youtu.be/CQ2eLVxViIU

So I guess the cards are made of cards, kinda

GMT says its sending out the Cataclysm mounted map set

I never saw an announcement that it went through

EDIT: I received this, it's mounted maps for Cataclysm, and a bigger box to put the game in. They did this before, with Labyrinth, when they made the expansion for it. They gave you a bigger box to hold the entire game.

Everspace 2

At this point it is not likely to reach its goal, though

Bring on the kung-fu amputees - no arms vs. no legs anyone? A bit of high-speed underground ninja-tunneling is always good as well. I wanna see some shit like that. Crazy monks with gnarly special powers can make any film good. FACT.
