And, once again, we’re back. Yaah! Magazine #9 is another
thick issue stuffed full of things like words, pictures we stole off the
Internet, die-cut counters, and game maps. How thick? 84-pages thick. Thick
enough to discipline your dog, so just sit down and listen.
We’ll lead off with the game, because our surveys say that
despite the riveting articles, the pulse-pounding pizzazz of their pretty
pictures, and the immersive scenarios, people buy these magazines for the game.
This issue’s game is Ryan Kirk’s Donetsk., a squad-level tactical game that
simulates the battles for the Donetsk Airport in the Ukraine 2014-2015. You, or
someone like you, will control squads, RPG and machine gun teams, BTRs, T-64
tanks, snipers and more, as you attempt to gain control of the airport. The game comes with four scenarios, 88
sharp-looking die-cut counters, and a beautifully illustrated game map. Ryan writes an excellent lead in article that
will educate those who were unaware of the Russian-backed separatist’s little
war with the Ukraine.
Articles? We’ve got your articles right here. There’s a great
piece of prose on GMT’s Comancheria by
Deborah Malmud, another on Twilight Struggle’s little brudder, 13 Days, written by Nick O’Neill, an
insightful piece on one of the most creative slices of gaming released in 2016,
Cool Mini or Not’s The Others, by
Matt “The Man” Foster, as well as words on Paper Wars Finish Civil War, Col Smitty’s thoughts on The Great War, Eddie Carlson’s take on Monolith’s Conan, and Roger Leroux’s opinion on the
amazing deck-building game, Hands in the
Sea.
Last, but not least in terms of what we are super excited
about, we have solitaire scenarios/RPG/story for Night of
Man, scenarios for ’65, Old School Tactical, Dead
Reckoning, Herm Luttmann’s Stonewall’s
Sword, and a King Arthur Variant for Command
and Colors: Ancients.
It’s 84 full-color pages in all, and it’s shipping now!
