Hi! Thanks for your reply. I work with databases and I don't need to correct anything, just thank you for devoting a bit of your time to my question!

Thanks for these pointers!! Will look into those.

I agree with this message: in fact I am not against doing it by hand. It could be a nice life project. I will look into all the advice that you have given me, thanks everyone!

The Malazan book of the Fallen by Steven Erikson would be my recommendation. Start from Gardens of the Moon and go ahead... It keeps getting better and better!

Same for me. I have been reading Linus (Torvalds) posts since decades and it really seemed out of character to me. I even clicked on the link but I admit that I haven't yet understood what is going on. I have decided that it's not for me...

So long, and thanks.

What is an "Analogue pocket" for those of us ... Out of the loop?

There is an optional Ocr pass, from what I understand

Good job on making the right call and preemptively shutting the server down. Thanks for being alert!

I hope you will enjoy it :-)

One wonders how they market their services : "come to us, we are the best fake reviewers you can find on the web and these 5-star reviews prove it!"

I think that the best one is Arkham Horror LCG by MJ Newman. It really blends together game mechanics and narrative feeling (ludonarrative harmony, as she describes here fo example: https://www.bewaretheblackcat.com/post/behind-the-curtain-enemies ). In short, you are not simply moving cards or pulling out tokens, but you are really living an adventure.

Then there is War of the Ring, really conveys both for the Free People and the shadow player a super thematic experience, while being a tight and ruthless wargame.

Those two are the peaks (for us). But I can name many other which we enjoy. Among the new ones, there is a very nice pirate game, ~~forbidden~~ Edit: Forgotten waters (sorry, autocorrector). I also enjoy the games by Jerry Hawthorne (mice and mystics, comanauts, stuffed fables, ...).

And many, many others (dune conquest, for instance, or star wars: imperial assault, ...)
