Well, the good old crowd is still there, supporting one of the stronger and more consistent WoW TCG communities, so check out their Facebook page why don’t you, on their latest happenings and what […]
I gotta admit, when it comes to boardgames, I tend to veer towards the unabstract and more graphic type of titles. This easily explains my fascination with titles from Fantasy Flight Games: rulebooks are not the best-written, but the artwork and aesthetics usually freaking gorgeous! Another thing I have noticed though, is their player […]
I’ve been pretty much sucked in the whole Star Wars Living Card Game phenomenon, and it’s been interesting trying to figure up card combos.
