  • A Gamer I Miss

    Picek and I were gaming buddies. That was our glue that held us. More than anything else we played Legend of the Five Rings CCG. We played each other so much we would casually call each other by our chose clan names – Phoenix and Crane. At one point I started playing Scorpion decks and…

  • Person I’d Like to Game With

    Get ready for the most corny response to the person you’d like to game with prompt. Ready? It is my best friend. We go way back. Unfortunately we grew up and our schedules, and kids schedules, and life schedules … all the schedules prevent us from finding a time slot to play some games.

  • Desirable Dice

    Last year I lost my backpack of twenty years with irreplaceable gaming paraphernalia that was with me from the earliest days of my gaming life. Among other things, most of my dearest dice. My first polyhedral set, all the d10 I got in my White Wolf years, a fistful of charred smoke Fablestone d6 now…
