The Flames of War tourney was set in the Late War period, and a Saga tournament in the Age of Crusades. By the way, if you want to know how Saga works, you can check this article!

(A note: the Cornaredo Tournament was opened only to three-dose vaccinated people, and we wore masks all time. We just pulled them down for some photos).


First, the gadgets and the sponsors.

Desert Storm mission. Note the key strokes shown on the bottom right section of the screen.
Useful for 1990s-era DOS games, like Tornado, which make extensive use of keystrokes.

Might be a nice way to meet up with the Tornado international diaspora (if such a niche segment of gamers and Tornado enthusiasts exists).

In the screenshot above,
"a x 2" means I pressed the "a" key two times.
"= x 21" means I accelerated by pressing and holding down the "=" key 21 times (repeatedly).

I am using a keyboard utility named Carnac which is free and allows me to display ANY combination of keystrokes on the screen. A useful...

Two famous game designers join forces to bring a new digital boardgame play experience.
Lewis Pulsipher's masterpiece comes to life in 2021 in its digital version, thanks to Philippe Thibaut (Europa Universalis, Ageod, Avalon Digital games, SGS series).

Britannia is a historical board game that broadly depicts...
