Ok, so while I don’t often post vendor based promotional content on my blog, I will say that the production quality, entertainment and information in this vendor vid, make it one of the best I have ever seen.
I have not ever played a VPG game before, so I cannot comment on mechanics, or value, but I can tell you those laser cut counters are going to change the industry. Stunning.
This raises the bar. This potentially changes the game. This is an interesting development.

I have played a few VPG games – they tend to be fast playing, not a lot of counters or rules but very good games.
I’ve not played any. This new technology with lasers will change how games are made. Kiss clipping goodbye!
It looks like the limit on the number of counters is gone with the new tech too. Another fun thing I read about is that you can put the counters back in the cardboard for storage!
