Tomorrow, we'll be hosting our fourth Bagong Laro RPG day (and the last one for the year).
We'll have three tables: Gubat Banwa, Reach of the Roach God (using OSE) and A Goon's Guide to the Galaxy.
(And if any Manileños see this, we've still got room forms.gle/16Sgkv6SVSEG... )

Started late so we only made it through 3 rounds of 7 before we had to call it a night, but really enjoyed what I played of The Treasure Ship of Zheng He. Hisashi Hayashi does it again, plus Melaka mentioned!

Tonight’s little project: started cutting up photos out of my completed gunpla boxes to use as paper minis before I recycle the boxes.
