New summoning rituals just dropped…
How to find me at PAX:
1. Come to my booth, 3958. I'll be there pretty much all vendor hours.
2. Challenge me to a NOVA skirmish or card game. Or summon me for a GILA or Dragon Slayers session.

New patreon post! Added the final hex to the little Riverlands hexcrawl region I've been working on! This last hex adds a tiny bonus faction and some cool eels.
There's also a brief mention of some other cool projects I have plans for!

I just want my little Hellions, and Corvus, and Lunar Cultist dudes to move around on a table and fight
