Preview: Littoral Commander- A Modern Wargame

By Mitch Reed

One great aspect of my “day job” is that I get to see some really innovative wargame designs and meet some very gifted designers. One such designer is Sebastian Bae, who I have written about before with his work in teaching wargaming at Georgetown University.

Sebastian invited me to see the games his students were working on this past December and I featured them right here on NDNG. One game which Sebastian designed is now available for presale and I wanted to make sure our community had the chance to pick this game up.

The World of Command & Colors

By Mitch Reed

To kickoff 2022 I had some fellow gamers over to play two different games from the Command & Colors game system. We split into two groups, one playing the American Revolutionary War-based Tricorne and the other team playing the re-make of Samurai Battles. Since this event, I have been thinking about the Command & Colors system created by Richard Borg over twenty years ago and how I became a fan of it.

A Night with Georgetown University Wargaming

By Mitch Reed

Recently I accepted an invite from Professor Sebastian Bae to attend the “finals” for his wargaming class at Georgetown University. This marks my second time helping him out, last spring I headed up to the US Naval Academy to do the same thing with his Midshipmen. What better way to have a final exam than to play some of the games his students worked on this semester.
