Mini Rogue is much more typical of the genre and is also a nice game. I just wish the standard game came with the dual layer boards, as they would have helped its accessibility quite a bit. But it is a very solid Roguelike, true to the name.Have you tried Kinfire Delve: Vainglory's Grotto or any of tye other 2?

Reply: War of the Ring: Second Edition:: General:: Re: Digital version. Very early, buggy, looking for testers & feedback

17 June 2026 @ 4:23 am

by ira212 It's a cool idea, but unfortunately I had a lot of trouble playing. Here are my top suggestions for improvement at this point:1) Add an undo feature. There are many confusing moments and possible bugs, if you allow the player to undo, they might be able to actually play a game.2) The screen real estate should focus on the most important things. For example, you're giving up a lot of wasted space on the right, when the map should really be 80% of the screen. The politics track could be more compressed, similar to the way it exists on the actual board.3) When you mouse-over a card, it should immediately enlarge, without having to click on it - if the player is mousing over it, they want to know what it does! Also, it's important to show at a glance if the card is a Muster, Army, or Character card. It's also important to know what cards the opponent has in hand, which I couldn't see anywhere (though ma

Reply: Star Wars: Battle of Hoth:: Variants:: Re: The Snowspeeder Controversies

17 June 2026 @ 4:22 am

by ParzivalTMP I’m with those a little disappointed that the rules don’t allow the flying Snowspeeders to actually fly. I allow Snowspeeders to essentially ignore all terrain movement restrictions except the seracs. I’ve considered allowing them to fly over (through) friendly infantry and artillery (they do so in the film), but not any enemy unit (we’ll call that avoiding anti-aircraft fire). They can’t stop on any hex occupied by any other unit, friendly or not. To balance things out, Snowspeeders wouldn’t gain the advantages of any terrain except ridges (height is height)— really, what advantage does a Snowspeeder get from a building or wreckage or rocks? It’s up high; they are below it— generally, aircraft are not protected by buildings (certainly not the underground facilities as on Hoth)! Otherwise, LoS rules are unchanged for Snowspeeders— we’ll just assume there’s a lot of activ

Can he use the railroad from Wytheville, Lynchburg, and Appomattox CH to draw his units to him in Burkeville during the strategic movement phase? It's an isolated section of track, but it is in-supply and has an LOC... Does he steal all the locomotives in Lynchburg?

OnePlus defies RAM crisis, offers the 15R with more memory

17 June 2026 @ 3:58 pm

There's been a lot of talk recently about RAM prices going through the roof because of AI data centers gobbling up the entire supply, yet OnePlus doesn't seem to have gotten the memo. The company has just started offering the 15R with more memory than before, in India only for now. [#InlinePriceWidget,14358,1#] The phone launched last year with 12GB of RAM, and you can still get it with that amount of memory with either 256GB or 512GB of storage.

Xiaomi Mix Fold 5's launch timeline hinted at by new certification

17 June 2026 @ 1:51 pm

Xiaomi's upcoming Mix Fold 5 may have just been certified for sale in China with the model number 2608BPX34C. This is interesting because the Mix Fold 5 has reached this step before any of the Xiaomi 18 family members. That could imply that the Mix Fold 5 won't launch alongside those devices in September, but will perhaps be introduced earlier. There's usually something happening in mid-August, and that sounds like a pretty good bet. Xiaomi Mix Fold 4 Unlike the Xiaomi 18 family, the Mix Fold 5 doesn't have to wait for Qualcomm to unveil the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 chipset, since...
