Dungeons & Dragons 3rd Edition
Well, another Sunday has come and gone. The regular gang got together for the continuing adventures of our Greyhawk game, and we also got in a few board games. In fact, we had a few games of Magic; and two games of Settlers of Catan – including the Cities and Knights expansion that I’ve only bought a couple of weeks ago. The board games were … Continue reading Sunday’s game session

I see it over and over again, people thinking that because something works one way in the RPG, it must work the same way in the Skirmish game. Fortunately, they don’t. Why do I say fortunately?

I took another step into the great world of self-sufficiency today: I bought some shoelaces. There’s probably a great parable here about One Man’s Need for Shoelaces and what it means in his relationship with the world, but it probably doesn’t apply to me, because I have bought shoelaces before.
