Is there a contact for questions about Osprey's Black Ops?
« on: September 13, 2019, 02:57:07 PM »
I have posted questions here about the rules with no response. Perhaps there is another way to get answers?

If the answer is Facebook, I'm not on it. But maybe there's an email contact for whomever runs the page?

Thanks

Osprey has a forum but it looks pretty dead.

https://ospreypublishing.com/forum/black-ops/?p=1

You could try the Sitrep Forum on Beasts of War. Sitrep is a modern game forum for minis, skirmish and larger and board games. Good cross section of interests.

https://www.beastsofwar.com/forums/topic/sitrep-forum-center-modern-military-gaming/page/31/

Also there is a forum on Board Game Geek, a little less dead than Osprey's own, but...

https://www.boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/178517/black-ops-tactical-espionage-wargaming/forums/0

Sorry I don't play it myself so no help from me.

Thanks, Madman.

I checked Osprey's Black Ops forum, logged in but could not post. Turns out only Gold, Silver and Bronze members can post.

I'm just a customer.

Thanks Osprey.

 ;D

Oh, I see that Bronze membership is only $1.00 a year. A pittance. But pay to post?

The chap who wrote Black ops is Guy Bowers. The same chap who is the editor of Wargames Soldiers and Strategy. You may be able to contact him through that avenue.

He made this thread ages ago.

But to be honest it feels a bit abandoned.

I believe there have been issues with Osprey over ongoing support for it.
