Modern Maps

We got to talk about Ken’s best worst map for his Mothership convention game

So corporate, it’s perfect, just not for the people living in it

Dave likes the Campaigns and Coffee as a series.



It’s a way to relax and talk as a group about different gaming topics that we are interested in

Unboxing the Electric State

Even though I haven’t played it yet, it’s a gorgeous book and has been a depressing but creative read
