I know I really dropped the ball with the last game I championed, but this one I've actually played full games of, and though it's only in (free!) beta right now, it's already shaping up really well.

It is a grid-based, turn-based strategy game in the vein of Advance Wars and countless other games in the same genre, but it looks really good and so far is pretty damn fun to play. Maps are relatively small, which lead to an intensely tactical experience, more akin to chess than, say, not-chess.

So, I am CHAMPIONING it! C'mon, folks! Get on the winning team! It costs $0, for the moment! We can play together! You guys?

GUYS?!!!

Here is how this went. Pinback asked if I wanted to play this game. I said yes. Pinback then went and downloaded it and played five games of this while I was stuck at work.

He is already better at games than me. Now he wants me to play it, but he's been meditating on the game all day.

Oh, and he tried to run the best new poster of 2013, lethargic, off, apparently.

Sorry folks, I forgot that EVERYTHING IS ABOUT ROBB.

I was just trying to introduce you to a potentially exciting, fun new game for you and your whole family.

This is now the second of two computer game-related sites run by Robb Sherwin that I tried to introduce an actual COMPUTER GAME to and was brutally rejected.

I give up. I would post this at the moltobenny BBS but it is currently occupied by 29,648,721 spammers.

None of you stanky fuckers wants to play a FREE GAME? That's FREE? That has a MOON UP IN IT?

Well, then I shall continue to champion the game...

...alone.

Is it any good?
