MBS Monthly Newsletter #36

Greetings!

After a month off, the MBS newsletter is back. There is some exciting stuff to cover this time around, so lets get started!

First up, be sure to check out episodes 19 and 20 of the MBS Podcast! In Ep. 19, Greg and I interviewed historian Jon Parshall about the Battle of Midway. In Ep 20, we looked at the new 2.5 rules for Dystopian Wars, and reviewed the submarine-themed boardgame They Come Unseen.

Don’t forget to vote in this month’s forum poll, which is all about the minor factions in Dystopian Wars:

Elsewhere on the forums, there has been some interesting discussion regarding the proper terminology for space weaponry:

What with the new rules and all of the new releases, the DW forum has been seeing a lot of activity!

In the Historicals section, Yarkshire Gamer has posted an update to his thread on the Baltic campaign he has been running with his group:

Now, for some BIG announcements!

First, I’ve finally cracked the nut on fixing the avatars and attachments directories for the forum. That means you can now re-upload your avatars, and include attachments to your posts again! On the downside, I unfortunately had to delete the old avatars and attachments; apologies for any inconvenience.

The second big announcement comes from the 11th monthly poll, which if you recall asked all of you what your most desired new feature was for the MBS website. The number one choice from that poll was an integrated image gallery, and I’m very excited to announce the launch of just such a gallery feature for the MBS forums! You can find it at this link here:

It’s pretty straightforward to use, but if you have any questions be sure to let me know!

Until next time…
