Romanesque release announcement
Missing the Friday Foxers? I’ve got just the thing. The first tangible product of my six-month sabbatical is Romanesque, a puzzle game inspired by the hive foxers that have been confounding Cornerites for years.

Bounce the Bogen: Turn 31
If the Bogen bouncers finish this 35-turn scenario in possession of the castle, the village, and the bridges, then they will have ample reason to celebrate. However, if the situation in the woods south-east of the castle doesn’t improve PDQ,…
Bounce the Bogen: Turn 30
In WEGO Combat Mission sometimes you need to watch a turn replay several times in order to catch every incident and nuance. Turn 30 was one of those turns. Unexpected encounters, narrow escapes, KOed vehicles, ricochets, near misses, routs, casualties……
Win Burden of Command – Three Nations!
A wargame I branded “insightful, innovative, and intense” in April, 2025, gains its first adjunct next week. If you’d like to acquire said adjunct without disturbing wallet moths, this competition is for you.

Win Task Force Admiral!
One good reason to keep visiting the Corner while Roman and myself are pretending to be game developers is you might stumble on a competition like this one. January has been pretty eventful for MicroProse Mk II. Last week, sword-and-sandal wargame…
Bounce the Bogen: Turn 26
The closest Allied Armoured Recovery Vehicle to Nottingheim is over twenty miles away. If the churning caterpillars of the Churchill VIII don’t grip something solid in the next turn or two, Sergeant Johns and his crew have a long, frustrating…
