NSKN Legendary Games interview at UK Games Expo

You thought we had forgotten the UK Games Expo? Well, I am pleased to say no! The goodness continues to sip through as we put together the videos of the interviews the Uk Gaming Media Network carried out. This time, it is my pleasure to bring you the interview with Andrei Novac, one of the minds behind NSKN Legendary Games, creators of Warriors & Traders, a game that mixes strategy with euro mechanics very, very nicely. But since we already have a video unboxing Warriors & Traders, I spoke with Andrei about Wild Fun West and Exodus: Proxima Centuri. And yes, that makes Spiel 2012 even more attractive.

My friend Richard Whipple is not one for keeping his opinions to himself. He is a bit of a thinker and very passionate about role playing games, so hearing or reading his musings is always very enjoyable.

Today, though, I had to disagree with him, which is very unusual.

Marvels of Science and Steampunk review

Victoriana has become a darling of mine of recent. From believing it was a system that was hard to be taken seriously, I’ve gone to actually love it and regard it as close in richness (if not richer) than Call of Cthulhu. Yep, feel free to disagree. I won’t change my mind. Get over it.

Tobynstein

This game comes from a Spanish company called Homo Ludicus(yes, yes… I can also make tons of jokes about the name and no, none of them were that funny) and, although you wouldn’t be blamed for not knowing them, they have a very impressive catalogue of games! And they are all in Spanish and English, with very decent translation, so nothing to fear regarding the country of origin.
