  1. #Introduction

    I've been back and forth a few times but figured I should fire up another one.

    Hello #Fediverse and #GamepadClub

    I'm Liam, 40-ish-ish Brit and usually goes by the online moniker of "Guillin"

    I live in #England and I'm into #Gaming (mainly #WoWClassic #Hearthstone and #Civ6). I like watching #Cricket and occasionally #football

    I'm also exploring ways of using #technology in a more intentional manner.

    Anyhow, feel free to say hello!
    Ta-ra 👋

  22. Time flies, when you're playing civ, and the same applies when you are browsing the forums! Today is one of the days which can be considered the birthday of Civfanatics, and we turn 25, which is in the age of the internet nearly biblical. For this occasion we have written a retrospective, which hopefully includes the most interesting things about the forums. This starts from our timeline, the stats, our best content, the notable projects the community has created, from mods to podcasts, the weirdest things the mods have never told anyone, and other things you might not know.

  29. Here's an #introduction to this account

    I'm @[email protected] and this is the account where, I guess, I'll talk about - and maybe post pictures related to - my board game habits

    Some games to which I more or less know the rules at this point, in no particular order: #TwilightStruggle, the shorter #TSRedSea, #ImperialStruggle, the excellent #BayonetsAndTomahawks produced by talented locals, #HereIStand, #VirginQueen, #PaxRenaissance, #PaxPamir, #Arcs, maybe #JohnCompany but I'm not certain, and at least the Breaking the Bismarck Barrier scenario of #EmpireOfTheSun (finally, a game with real hexes). I have played several COIN games but the one I like the most is #AndeanAbyss. I love #DominantSpecies. I'm starting to love #Nevsky

    Definitely not a tabletop board game but I'm also a big fan of #CivilizationVI, e.g. #Civ6. More hexes!

    Interested in playing more games with locals, connecting with other people in town, or playing with other places' locals when I'm out of town. Looking at you, Ontario

    I don't use Facebook, Discord, or almost any spyware social media if I can help it - and I only use BoardgameGeek begrudgingly. Happy to be on wargamers.social now, I've been thinking about spinning up a more game-focused account for awhile but it's always been on the backburner 😀
