Posted on December 16, 2015 by baudattitude

If I’m counting right, finishing the “Brave” tie-in game yesterday puts me at 99 games / expansions for the year. In theory, I should have something really cool planned for #100, but at this point it will probably just be … Continue reading →

Posted on December 3, 2015 by baudattitude
