We Pause for Station Identification

My apologies for the absence of game news on BGG the past few days. My wife and I bought a new house on December 6, and I've now fallen behind on posts while painting rooms and moving in the far-too-large game and book collections. We move the big stuff – beds, sofa, tables, bookcases, etc. – on Sunday, and game news will resume on Monday, Dec. 17 when I'll undoubtedly be wishing that I could disassociate myself from the intense back pain that's sure to be present. Fun!
