Who knew that after my 1000th post celebration, the next one would just be a regular “hey, what did Dave play last month?” post? In other words, we’re back to normal. The cake has been eaten, the ado has been stored so nobody can… Continue Reading “October 2025 Gaming”

Last weekend was the 10th (maybe 11th?) annual Terminal City Tabletop Convention (though I guess it was interrupted by COVID so not actually 11?). I have to say it was probably the best yet.

Regular readers of this blog know that I’m a big fan of Folded Space inserts because they just make organizing and playing games so much easier. No emptying of baggies, and then wondering which baggy each thing should go in when you’re putting stuff… Continue Reading “Rock Hard 1977 – Storage Solution from Folded Space”
