Night. The House of Chimes - a tower which you might immediately think of as Big Ben - is adrift in the River Thames. It still seems to be keeping time. In the background, a large, alien building looms over the city of London.

"Guerre Eclair" by Yasushi Nakaguro is such a brilliant compact #wargame. Despite very few components, the decision space is incredibly rich and engaging. I love getting it on the table and introducing #wargaming to people with it. 🎲

Latest watch : "It"s never over, Jeff Buckley" - Amy Berg Still very moving to hear (and see) Jeff Buckley. I had the chance to see him live at the Olympia...and was blown away back then. His death broke my heart and I tried to forget until today. Be in peace wherever you are, sweet angel.

Last played : very first game of Heroquest. The party seems to enjoy making new friends in the fort of In-Gulden. A simple and fun game without headaches. Everything I need right now. Well, maybe I'll add some new ruless to make it more Rpg.

"Hell or High Water" - David Mcenzie, 2016 Heist movie in the hot and stifling atmosphere of today’s Texas. The social context, the mastered photography and the acting (an inspired Chris Pine) make it a very good movie.

Last watched : "O Agente Secreto" 2025, Kleber Mendonça Filho. 1/2 A film whose plot unfolds slowly in an oppressive atmosphere. Corruption and the danger of dictatorship ooze from everywhere.

Last watched : "Song Sung Blue", Craig Brewer, 2025 You have to be in love with Neil Diamond's songs, his hairstyle and mild romance. I'm not. BUT singing "Sweet Caroline" with my wife in an empty movie theatre was priceless. :)

Re-watched : "Jacob's Ladder" - Adrian Lyne 1991 Discovered the 4K reissue in my local theater. A dive into Dante’s Hell. The several realities, their symbols, the chaos of NY in the 70s, the soldiers' trauma...So many things in this movie and script... A masterpiece.

Last played : 1754, The French & Indian war - Academy games Winning with the Canadian and French armies by one point. I experienced the Natives' turnabout and a strong ability of the French to miss their target at each fight. Great game. But is the winner always the side who plays last ? #boardgame
