The Miniature Wargaming Editor
Instant Thunder Air War Rules
Nigel Lancaster has written a set of abstract modern air war rules called Instant Thunder, and has graciously permitted MiniatureWargaming to host them. This is a major work, with 28 pages of rules, aircraft and missle lists, and designers notes.
Painting Freehand Details On Miniatures
Creative Twilight has a blog post on painting freehand details on miniatures, such as logos on crates and the like. It fits in well with my thesis that painting miniatures is a skill that can be acquired, not a talent.
Independence War Paper Models
The Independence War Paper Models site has some very nice — and free — paper models of starships.
A Drop Too Many
A Drop Too Many is an interactive storytelling game by Jim Wallman. It’s truly a unique concept, and worth taking a long look.
