Halls of Hegra was one of my favorite games of 2023 and is my all time favorite solo game. So backing Crown & Courage by @tompetgames.bsky.social was a no brainer. Instant back! www.kickstarter.com/projects/tom...

Did you know that the king was under immense pressure to abdicate during the invasion? The king also rejected German demands to legitimise the Quisling regime's puppet government.

The Norwegian defense has been very stout thus far and the king has made good progress away from the advancing Germans. But we have lost one of our possible actions in the Order Grid. It’s about to get really tough! Crown & Courage from Tompet Games coming to Kickstarter in June.

It is thursday again and that means we take a closer look at another historical moment from the game. Many Norwegians fought the germans during the war. But did you know that some chose to collaborate with them? This is also represented in the game by collaborator cards.

Lets take a closer look at another historical moment from the game. The Battle of Midtskogen was fought during the night of 9–10 April 1940. The invading Germans wanted to capture Haakon VII and his cabinet in an attempt to force Norway into surrender.

Halls of Hegra. Lately I have been on this solo only board game kick. This one often gets compared to Robinson Crusoe but I think it plays quite a bit differently. It's a lot more forgiving in the beginning and you are actually trying to prepare for the end. #hallsofhegra #boardgame #tabletopgame

Completed (lost) at my first game of Halls of Hegra at the end of turn 8. This was a tough game but I like it! The pressure on your actions builds exponentially and you soon find yourself in serious trouble. #hallsofhegra #ww2 #history #boardgames #solitairegames #imhavingmyone #imhavingmyonepodcast

The very intriguing Halls of Hegra. A solitaire, tower style defence, worker placement game rich in decisions and theme. Real shades of the Valiant Defence series from @djackthompson.bsky.social which is a very flattering comparison IMO! #hallsofhegra #boardgames #history #imhavingmyonepodcast

Got absolutely demolished in my first Halls of Hegra match. The German onslaught was relentless! Clearly, my wall defending setup needs a serious overhaul. I'm thinking of focusing more on adding troops on the defensive position sooner. What are your go-to defensive strategies for this game?

Game #17: Halls of Hegra This is one of two solo only games on my list but one of many on the list I primarily play solo. The challenge this game presents is phenomenal and I don't think I've had the same experience twice. I wish it was played more but this is a last minute backing I don't regret
