Sweet! I've of course heard of D&D but never played. What's going on with the board?
Thanks, it’s a game called Gloomhaven, it’s a board game that comes with cardboard standees for the monsters, so I 3D print and and paint the monsters, walls, and I make 3D furniture. Normally it looks like this right out of the box:
And this is how it looks after I upgrade it:
The board is part of the game and it has hexes for movement and targeting. You play cards that let you move and attack and you work together with your team to defeat the monsters before you run out of cards or die. It’s actually not like D&D at all, it’s more of a tactical strategy game!
Wow! Sounds exciting! Hopefully you got some play time this week!
