    I was wondering if anyone else here who is active on wargear is also active on reddit? If you are not familiar, reddit is a social news website, where users submit links, comment on links, and vote up/down comments & links. It is divided up into 1000s of communities, and one of the communities is centered on boardgames: boardgames.reddit.com. That community has 5000+ members, and I'm sure some of them would like wargear, so I have been thinking of posting a link. I've been lurking there for a while though, and there is kind of an anti-risk sentiment, so I need to de-emphasize that aspect of wargear. Also they are more focused on playing boardgames in the real-world instead of online, so I'm not sure how well an online site will go over.

    Perhaps include the design element.  Lots of game designers like reddit.

    I think you should do it.  This site has gone way beyond risk-style designs at this point.

    I'm a man.
    But I can change,

    I guess...

    An upvote is a small price to pay if it draws in a few more users.
