Relegation of Sengoku and Pike & Shot?

It looks as if these two games have been taken off the front page of the Forum and relegated to the 'Classic Games' forum.

Is there any possibility to reverse this change? There are active groups of players for both of these excellent games, and we organise annual and occasional tournaments. Indeed I was about to launch our 2020 team event for SJ. Now that announcement will be hard for people to spot.

These are very successful games, probably more so than certain others on the Front Page and merit favourable treatment.

Thank you for the info. Now I know where to find them! I initially thought they had been hidden.

These forums weren't very lively. It won't help. Kind of Elephants' graveyard :-)

Not only those, but Battle Academy 2 as well.

What's more, maybe it's just me, but I cannot see the Pike and Shot forums in the Classic Games section, also the main forum for Battle Academy 2 in not there either (although the sub forums are).

Click on 'Classic Games' on the front page and you'll go to this page : viewforum.php?f=139

Then you'll be able to find the Pike and Shot forums :

As for the Battle Academy 2 forums (that I don't read), I could only find 'Battle Academy 2 - Eastern front'. Is it that ?

It would be quite sensible for Slitherine to create an easily accessible groups, with BA, BA2, P&S and SJ. These are all high quality games even of they are ageing a little.

Thanks Athos, I did not realise you can click on "Classic Games". I was referring to the view on the Board Index of course, where Pike and Shot is not visible.

Yes, Battle Academy 2 is "Battle Academy 2 Eastern Front".

@Paul : I myself did that 'mistake' at first (ie looking at the list on the front page) :-)
