MtG Tournament results
Congratulations to George, and his dominating Red deck, who managed to win the first annual Thanksgiving Magic the Gathering competition. We ended up with 14 participants, which resulted in 4 rounds of games. Many of the players were brand new to the game, so it was rather educational for many, and I believe we have…

Zombicide: Black Plague – Necromancer
Having finished the core set of 6 survivors, I then began on the villains of the game. I had planned on starting the Abomination, but ended up starting with the Necromancer. The basecoat had me concerned, the piece began to become very muddy with the various dark colors, but after the highlighting, the detail started…
