 Alain’s picks:

• Sophie Friederike Auguste von Anhalt-Zerbst-Dornburg is the Pre-evolution form of Catherine the Great

 Alain’s picks:

• Lifting the Fog of War
  The main problem with strategy games is that point where you have definitely won but you still have to play out the last 30% of the match. This is more of a look at why it happens and also why it is so hard to design against it.
