Title: Help me put sites in my favorites
Post by: zap on July 19, 2015, 06:48:41 AM
I know I'm internet illiterate. And so finding games many here speak about is sometimes difficult. For example someone mentioned Oriental Wars. I never heard of it.

So what I think I need is to have sites that people go to on my favorites list to help me navigate easily to new games being offered.

This is who I have on my favorites list now:
Matrix Games
The Blitz
GrogHeads

Who else would you suggest I have on my list.

tabletop?
Consimworld.com is the other go-to

Gamesquad has a decent mix, but isn't as active as the others

I like to look at table top but I'm strictly PC gamer. I will put your suggestion on my list.

Some here don't like it, but I generally like their sense of humor and reviews:

Computer wargames subreddit setup and moderated by Spelk (a regular here)

www.reddit.com/r/computerwargames

He does a good job aggregating news from around the web.

If you have any interest in 4x games, then both Space Sector (http://www.spacesector.com/) and Explorminate (http://explorminate4x.com/) are good sites to check out.
