The Able Kompanie Christmas Battle of the Bulge tournament was announced last week. I'm pretty excited. I'm also surprised. Not by tournament details:

How to Lose Friends and Alienate People: The Game
By CaulynDarr
A few months back Fantasy Flight announced a new set of apocalypse themed role-playing games. They where introduced as having a novel concept in the genre. You play as yourself. And you start the game wherever you are when you start playing. You then take yourself though the scenario of a zombi plague, alien invasion, or the rise of the machines. I thought the concept had some promise.
Fantasy Flight just put out the first rules teaser.

BAE Demonstrates Hybrid-Electric Tank Prototype
by SandWyrm
Nice little demo video that shows off the internal layout and economy advantages of tanks having a hybrid-electric drive. A development that has been WAY too long in coming. What they don't show, however, is one of the best advantages of HE drives – STEALTH!

Nice pic of a Canadian live-fire exercise. Could almost imagine those trails being multi-laser bursts. :)

US Navy Video On Autonomous Swarming Boats

Obviously this is just a very early tech-demonstration. But it's a glimpse of the future.

Caption Contest: French African Troops In WWI
by SandWyrm
From a 1914 book I have on the "Great War". Maybe it's the smug look on the French officers' faces , but this thing just demands a funny caption.
