b'Opener: Startups Closers: Wargames To Go (French & Indian War) Geeklist: Essen Anticipation 2017 It\'s mid-October, which means it\'s time for my annual "Essen Anticipation" episode. I may have missed a year or two along the way, but mostly I\'ve been doing these since I started the podcast in 2005. Along the way I think I\'ve learned more about my own preferences, and have gotten better at homing in on just those games that will end up being some of my favorites or keepers for the year. But I\'m not THAT good. I still get excited and list a lot more games than will end up being my hits of the year. Even more than I will get a chance to play soon. That\'s ok--this is part of the fun of the hobby, at least for me: getting excited about new games, new ideas, new (and old!) designers/publishers. -Mark'
