we've got a new site up and running to mix and match current defense/security news with some (forthcoming) news about how gaming relates to the current events. We've also got a variety of RSS feeds there to help keep people in the know (including SWJ, for our readers there who don't read over here).


We are not intending to be a game-news site, where we break headlines about upcming releases, or playtests, etc. But rather we want to discuss what games might help folks understand current events and play through them, while focusing on the news, and analysis.


Please give us a look and offer some feedback... This is a pretty new venture for us, so we're happy with comments

FWIW - if anyone wants a bit of IITSEC flavor, we've got a few pics/comments over at www.grognews.com

Picture quality isn't great - and the video was shot sideways - but I was working with my cell phone b/c I was told that 'real cameras' were limited to members of the press... and then saw a few thousands of them wandering around after I'd left mine at home.

Just wanted to point out that noted professional wargamer/analyst Jon Compton (former editor of F&M) will be offering occasional thoughts and rants over at GrogNews. His first post (Just What are Wargames Good For?) is up today!

My blog:



http://defense-and-freedom.blogspot.com/

This is blog about the defence against external threats and about the defence of civil liberties.
Most topics are about the art of war, military history or military technology.

We're slowly revamping the features we've got on GrogNews. A new one that might interest people here is a COA Analysis we do on Wednesdays with the intention of some reader participation. We throw out 4 different COAs (admittedly not thoroughly developed) and ask the readers for some participation in discussing which ones they think might come to pass, and how, and what could be done to affect them. We also welcome comments on how wrong they might turn out to be. And you can comment w/o having to register for anything first (it means I have to chase spammers around a bit more, but less inconvenient for the readers)

An example COA Analysis from the past few weeks.
