Clio's Board Games

This blog deals with history, board games and history in board games. Besides articles about the representation of specific events or broader concepts of history in board games you will find small essays on history, strategy tips for games, thoughts on game design and the occasional event-related (fairs, conventions) post. Do not expect too many game reviews (although I might put up one every once in a while). While the blog does not limit itself to specific periods of history, my research as a scholar has been focussed on the Cold War, so this era will come up more often than others.
