Limey Yank Games

Lots of good news to share this month:

1. Mid-September, we'll return from our annual summer sojourn to France. That means the LYG Shop will re-open for business, That said, we've built up quite a queue of orders whilst we've been away and I suspect it will be October before we can satisfy any new counter orders (games and/or map only orders will be much quicker).

2. September should see 'Gettysburg - A Time for Heroes'  starting to ship from Worthington Games; latest info is that it will be w/c 22 September. And, of course, there is a Vassal module  available.

The game is currently available for pre-order and the solitaire rules are available on BGG.

 3. It looks as though LYG should be around (in its present form) for at least another 4-years (though with a caveat - see below). You're probably aware that Blue Host left me seriously peeved earlier this year when they changed the terms of our agreement unilaterally and mid-contract. I thought I had little option other than to remain with them or undertake a serious amount of work on the site to allow me to move elsewhere. Well, I had run-ins with BlueHost again at renewal time and that led me to look again at whether migrating to another host was possible. And, as a result (and after a week of site downtime for which I apologise) we are now with Hostinger.  I've signed up for 4-years, but there is known technical-debt with the site which will, probably, eventually kill it; when this will happen, I don't know.

4. We can now start accepting submissions again. We had to stop when BlueHost imposed capacity limits on us mid-term (see above). However, the move to Hostinger more than doubles the capacity we had with BlueHost.

So, four (generally) good pieces of news for September.

And finally...

My thanks as always to our sponsors, advertisers, contributors and visitors.
