Vassal is a virtual boardgame emulator………if you have a large screen TV, simply pipe the video feed from your computer to the TV via HDMI and presto……instant boardgame in real scale!

Bicycle Cards!

the best playing cards out there!   “Bicycle GAMES” is all about taking a standard deck of cards and making it fun!Im working on a starship game that uses 1 deck of cards as the starfield/starmap on which you move your starship.  Movement will be based on the cards laid out in a random fashion.  With a StarBlazers like feel/theme…..it should be fun!  Every starship will draw from a full deck of cards.  Have an idea of a game that uses playing cards? —try to come up with something for the collection!

Kings of War!

very very affordable armies (undead army of 110 miniatures is only 60$ and comes with the rule book!), easy play system, looks like it would be the NEXT best game for EPIC scale battles in warhammer like scale.
