| Dungeons & Dragons Party. |
A fantastic start to the NZ Festival of MindSports in Thames this weekend with Tunnels and Trolls added to the roster of games, thanks to Mark Thornton stepping in as a Game Master. I also returned as Dungeon Master with some superb
DWARVEN FORGERY™ terrain for an exciting session of Dungeons & Dragons.
With the North Island Wargaming Convention happening in the same building, there was a whole lot of gaming going on! Ancients, Flames of War, Warhammer (Fantasy Battle and 40K), Warmachine/Hordes and plenty more. I took some time to wander around the tables and take photos. Lots of eye candy.
There was also an enterprising young entrepreneur named Richard Morita and his new
Edo Jidai - Duelling Samurai game. I had a great time chatting to him about how the game came about and his plans for the future. I also ended up going home with a copy. Thanks mum!
At my table, the D&D game was full of mirth and youthful enthusiasm. Special merit goes to Honour. Her wizard managed to counter the beastman shaman's spell and turn his fire elemental against him (and then kept it as a pet). Thanks and blessings also to Mark Thornton, a veteran gamer, a scholar and a gentleman. I can't wait for the games next weekend!

"Little boxes (made out of ticky-tacky)." Is that's showing your age?
ReplyDeleteSome great looking games going on there!
My dad had an eclectic record collection. I recall the Pete Seeger version. Dad sang it often. I love the lyrics. Anyway, the games were awesome. It's all on again this coming weekend.
DeleteI remember hearing it on the "wireless" as a little nipper in the early 60's!!
