Operation Jubilee

Precursor to the "D-Day at..." series of solitaire games by John Butterfield. This game depicts the disastrous 1942 raid on Dieppe by Canadian forces and Royal Marine commandos. A grim situation but a good first-step into the game system. The problem is, the game is out of print and hard to find, with no hint of a reprint.

Hero of Weehawken: vmod

First published in 2011, HoW is a gem of a solitaire game on an obscure topic in American history: the Aaron Burr conspiracy. There has been talk of a second edition for a couple of years now, and those who desire tabletop bling will most likely wait for the deluxe version (as with the updated Nemo's War). But here at Consim Comment, we still enjoy the funky desktop-publishy first edition.
