News: New Ascension Expansion – Gift of the Elements
I am a big fan of the deck-building game Ascension. It was the first real game I played when I returned to the board-gaming world, so it’s always held a soft spot in my heart. At the beginning of March, Ultra Pro and Stoneblade… Continue Reading “News: New Ascension Expansion – Gift of the Elements”
