Dragonflight 39 – Another Successful Convention

It’s All About the Insert

One of the really fun things about board games, besides playing them if they are really good, is that wonderful feeling when you first get a game. It’s all in shrink wrap, pristine, nobody has touched what’s inside. It has that new game smell.… Continue Reading “It’s All About the Insert”
