The Experiment

Roman, my perpetually restless sidekick, has persuaded me to try a little experiment. For the next two weeks, instead of posting a substantial feature every Friday, I’ll be posting something smaller – a news story, some ‘first impressions’, a miniature interview, a foxer, or a competition… – every day.

Ad Infinitum

There are now three ways you can help out the home of A2Zs, 3x3s, and foxers. Unable to participate in the airlift, and already mentioned THC in your favourite forums and Discord channels? Roman and I would really appreciate it if you investigated the wares of our advertisers, ideally via the images on the ‘AD LINKS’ page.

Solo Foxer #126

Unlike the formidable Friday foxers, the Monday kind are designed with lone truth sleuths in mind. While Roman, my Chief Foxer Setter, would be very interested to know how long it takes you to defox today’s brainteaser, he requests that the comments section isn’t used to share solutions or drop hints.

Carnage in Swanage

3×3

Want to turn a green lane into a brown lane, tow a Gulaschkanone across a snowy field, or roam the Western Desert trashing Axis airfields? Get a 4×4. Want quick introductions to games of interest to realism relishers? Read a 3×3. Prior to penning one of these articles I’ll play three tempting titles for at least three hours each. While it would be cavalier to call the reports that result from such brief auditions ‘reviews’, it’s conceivable they might lead to more prolonged playtests, and prompt or prevent the odd purchase.
