I love board games, philosophy, political theory and reading. Once did a PhD about Levinas & Derrida on sovereignty.
Played my first game of the old king's crown last night, thank you so much @theoldkingscrown.bsky.social. A beautiful setting appears to hide beneath it layers and layers of intrigue waiting to be discovered and meaning I cant wait to play it again...

Loved this... new way to do a chronicle for sure!
During Gen Con 2025 we ran five games of Oath with Oath: New Foundations, diligently capturing the chronicle as it grew. Saturday night, we presented the full tale of the Gen Con demos to a packed house at the Leder Hootenanny. This is that story.
