Fine, now calculate your movement.

Oh snap I live in the Metroplex… I’ll have to go check it out!

My brain meats thinks this is either Beebop from original TMNT cartoon or one of the Beagle Boys from Ducktales (again, the OG)

It’s easy to get burned out by the different versions but I’ll always throw down classic fantasy

The big, red, Munchkin BIG BOX with amazing Kovalic art paying tribute to the D&D Red Box.

YIKES

Seriously a party wipe could have, maybe should have happened if not for some lucky shield rolls.

Mind you: I HAD A BLAST and loved playing through it… but I’m not sure total newcomers would appreciate it as their introduction. Could be wrong, was wondering what other #HeroQuest boardgamers felt?

So, I don’t own HeroQuest: First Light (yet)… but a friend mentioned how the first quest felt pretty punishing to newcomers. So, I loaded it up on the app and played rules-as-written (no house rules or homebrew).

Yeah, it was pretty brutal 😳 Most of the party staggered out on their last bp.

Table has plenty of other uses too. Just had a family Monopoly night* and the trays were handy for Mini-Grenade to keep his cards and coins on/sorted.

* Fall Guys Monopoly remains our favorite in being fast to play and easy for youngins to grasp. That and catapulting Beans is always hilarious.

It’s been a long summer. About to be back on my bullshit playing solo HeroQuest.

Just spruced up my HQ “Dashboard” in Obsidian. Also acquired a foldable puzzle table (with trays!) so I can have plenty of space without having to contend for space at the kitchen table.

Shit, if it wasn’t late for me I’d just come find ya and hang. May the odds be in your favor!

I get your criticisms but all I see is an illustration I’d totally write something around.

Best I got in the moment lol. Tried to cover them in sigils but it looks more like circuitry 🫣

Deal.

Can of Worms time:
Hey, fuck you — a lot of us use em dashes because our neurospicy brains go a mile a minute. Hunting down writers and blasting them because “ChatGPT uses it” is kinda fucky. Like, no shit, it’s trying to mimic our styles. Aim your guns at the thief and not the victims please, kthx

Okay here me out: Sean William Scott as Ralph

I’m still not terribly thrilled with the Switch 2 account experience (explaining to my kid that our Animal Crossing island isn’t on his device anymore is annoying).

But I will say: Mario Kart World is a pretty fun game. Also: the upgrades to Breath of the Wild are pretty neat.

A) This is a great idea and I want to play it

B) The access claim for the development is clever!

Around here we have lots of families that are die-hard Dallas Cowboys fans. Even when they suck, you’ll see households decked out in their team apparel and gather for every game.

That’s my household, but with Nintendo.

Also did a thing requiring both systems to be hooked up to AC Power (not just any USB charging). I had just setup both docks in their homes and I had to undo them both in order for them to be close enough to each other and be hooked up lol

We got our hands on a Switch 2. So far I’m pretty annoyed at the transfer process — I did a “local” swap with the hopes of keeping our save files on the OG Switch (which I’m handing off to my son). It kept the profiles connected to an email, but wiped my kid’s profile.

Seven players for Sigil & Shadow last night. Ages ranged from teenagers to late 40s. I am exhausted, but happy to see such a wild cast. I fudged my own rules just because so wanted to see some fun characters thrive.

Predominantly Afflicted, Seekers, one Host and one Bloodsucker.

From the Depths of the Umbra: A Review of Sigils & Shadows Sigil & Shadow is a contemporary occult RPG that builds on the legacy of World of Darkness, Kult, and other RPGs that fuse horror, personal transformation, and occult conspiracies, but it does …

The RPG Gazette did a pretty good review of Sigil & Shadow! I appreciate the time they took to run the game and type out some words about it 🤘

'Heinous stuff' | Violent online network that got its start in a small North Texas town is now a top FBI threat The FBI confirms 250-plus active '764' network-tied cases across its 55 U.S. field offices, and they want parents to know what children might be exposed to online.

For once I would love my hometown to NOT make headlines for something awful. This is not that time.

They both sound different to me.

“Nude, muscular” sounds artistic, sculptured, beautiful even.

“Muscular, nude man” sounds like it was ripped from the headlines in Florida.
