Hammer of the Scots Board Game Review

Hammer of the Scots is a easy to play lightweight wargame that while a bit loose with history, is engaging enough that it really doesn't matter.

Renegade Game Chair Review

This game chair offers a decent feature set at a more reasonable price than Ultimate Game Chair's other pricier offerings.
