Porting tabletop games to digital is a hit or miss endeavor. Sometimes the developers get it right and sometimes we end up getting a game that just fails. Recently acquired the rights from Warlord Games to bring the aerial combat game Blood Red Skies to the small screen. How well this will turn out remains to be seen, but my talks with some insiders make me feel confident that this port will not crash and burn.
Blood Red Skies Digital is about to launch their Kickstarter. Mitch and Doug from the amazing Lead Pursuit Podcast go 1v1 and talk about the development of the digital version of BRS. As old gamers they also talk about the industry, you do not want to miss this one.

The developers from Oak & Iron went right back to work on how they can improve their game as COVID-19 shut down most of the country. Normally the shuttering of local game stores would put game improvements on hold since no one is playing. However, the team at Firelock looked at how they can leverage technology and allow players to play this brand-new game in a safe environment.

Battlefront is continuing to expand its plastics range now adding Anti-Aircraft options to its Soviet Late War line. As these are now a formation unit in most motorized/mechanized Soviet Late War formations, they have become a bit of a “must have” that I did not have.
