Heartfelt apology for the total radio silence, last year suddenly kicked into overdrive and a new definition was made for what “busy” entails!

Tomorrow is the Welsh Masters. The first gaming event I have attended since Smogcon/Bonescon, and the largest tournament that I have participated in!
I think I have had a total of 5 or 6 games of MK4, and while comfortable with the ruleset, it is still very new. On the plus side, it was exactly the right motivation needed to complete my Grymkin. They are now fully painted and based!

Almost 3 months since the last post… Great job! 🤣 Amongst all the busy-ness, I have actually managed to mostly keep to the plan of gaming on Friday evenings at Bridge Troll Gaming Cafe.

Whilst this might have been the climatic battle of the dungeon, from a narrative point of view there was still a little more to find and figure out.
This was also the point where Dan revealed to everyone that he didn’t want to play Rake any more; The character choice to not have him be a native speaker was proving hard to RP as he couldn’t openly chat like the rest of the characters, and had as such devolved into a caricature of Manuel in Fawlty Towers. At the end of the session he turned to Michele (Fi) and said “You killed my new character!”

Really getting to delve deeper into this dungeon, learning more lore about the area, but still feeling like we are beginning to build towards something…

In the aftermath of the battle, some of the group dynamics start to really become apparent – largely the “playful” animosity between Zani and Rake really starts to show and come to a head, and how that irks Abraxos to no end.
