I personally learned that once your website is blacklisted, sites like Twitter will ban your ass for a good two months before letting you back in. Even though you cleaned up your site and put on the tie the hostess handed you.
Okay, now here’s the game I’ve been playing…
After backing the standalone expansion for Sword & Sorcery way back in November of 2018, I have finally gotten the original base game to the table after trading for it in 2019. I still haven’t gotten the stuff from the campaign, but I hear it should get here before the four-year anniversary of the campaign launch, so there’s that.
Now the good news… I love Sword & Sorcery. It’s got what I like in an RPG board game: grueling tactical decisions that get smashed flat by the cruel hammer of randomness.
After failing the Prologue quest in my first go, I brushed up on the rules I missed (there are a lot of rules–unnecessarily fiddly board games are my jam) and grabbed two Dwarves and a Sorcerer. I made it through the first quest and immediately bought the “Act II” expansion and this game will probably be on this table over here for a decent part of 2022.
OK, it’s actually two tables pushed close together. Bigger is usually better.
