CardBoard is an interesting project. It’s a bit of software that simulates a deck of cards in a digital playspace, and allows you to play with friends over a local area network. Keep an eye on this one, because remote playing via the internet is sure to come.

Middle Earth Skirmish Rules
Middle Earth are a set of free wargames rules for skirmishes in JRR Tolkien’s fantasy worlds. The set includes specific rules for battles in the three “Ages.”
Making Flying Stands
The 15mm Wargaming For Fun and Sanity Blog has a clever idea for using clear craft storage containers to make flying stands for figures. I’m thinking about using the method to make “swimming” stands for Deep Wars.
Tigers At Minsk
Tigers at Minsk is a set of WWII rules designed for 10mmm figures on 4 inch hexes. The author writes:
These rules are specifically designed for WWII tactical games to be played in a small area (3′ x 2′ or slightly larger) using 4″ hexes. Units represent individual infantry sections, support weapons and vehicles. Most of the scenarios presented here use a gaming space that is 8 hexes wide by 6 hexes deep if using a 4″ hex with the hex grain running sideways (see scenario maps). The equipment lists and scenarios relate to the east front circa 1943 / 44 and have been developed using Kallistra hex terrain and Pendraken’s 10mm figures.
Captains Bold Frigate Rules
Captains Bold is a free print-and-play game for the age of sail. It focuses on duels between frigates.
