Lords of Waterdeep – NinjaDorg gets his arse kicked

Her irony loaded words filled me with a heady mixture of expectation management but also pride:“Okay then, let’s get this boring board game over with so we can watch another episode of The Walking Dead.”My wife is not a gamer. Not by any stretch. And I wouldn’t have it any other way. She kind of benignly sees my board game addiction as a much more preferable alternative to me getting sloshed down the pub every Saturday watching footie with the lads. So once every blue moon she’ll indulge me when a new title lands and I can’t wait until Thursday... View Article

Legend of Drizzt – 2 player session report
