V is for Vertical slice by the end of Feb. Red Orchestra-style multiplayer FPS ’83 should be sample-able by the end of next month. A project from the team that created Rising Storm and Rising Storm 2, this Cold War shooter has been nudged closer to the finish line by a new investor with a passion for tactical shooters.

Every Friday, Tally-Ho Corner’s cleverest clogs come together to solve a ‘foxer’ handcrafted by my sadistic chum and colleague, Roman. A complete ‘defoxing’ sometimes takes several days and usually involves the little grey cells of many readers. All are welcome to participate.

Q is for Quick fag card. I can’t look at card no.33 in Wills’ 1935 set ‘The Reign of H. M. King George V’ without thinking of a bizarre murder that occurred in Essex during WW2.

Because a free, GMT-approved version of Joel Toppen’s solitaire board game Comancheria has appeared in the Tabletop Simulator workshop, PC strategicians now have the opportunity to emulate the rise and delay the fall of the ‘lords of the southern plains’, the Comanches. Joel’s other Native American history game, Navajo Wars, is also playable in TS.

Instead of making you wait until Friday for the first A2Z of 2025, I thought I’d chop it into five roughly equal portions, and post a portion a day every day this week.
