Had a real blast going to Commander Fest Birmingham yesterday. While I scrubbed out of the Pauper Nationals, I still had fun playing some commander and seeing some wonderful people I haven’t seen in years. Also, it’s made me want to do something I haven’t done in years.

Just seen that @bengineering.bsky.social is trying out Warmachine. Hope you are enjoying the wild and wonder steampunk madness. Don’t get half a much chance as I can to play, but I’m always down to live vicariously through the fine folks at LRR.

First Standard deck I’ve built in 5 years. And apart from the odd upgrade, the only Standard deck I’ll need for the next 5 years 😂. #MagictheGathering

Currently trying to decide which goes in my Krenko ‘ Mob Boss deck.
Currently leaning towards Assault on Osgiliath as a way to close out games even if not cast for a lot.

Did rather well at the Prerelease yesterday. Turns out it is enough to turn creatures sideways 😅.

I’m sure this is fine and won’t be broken at all.

Piloted my new Ruxa to a win in its first game at my LGS. Turns out swing out with giant green creatures is a legitimate strategy 😂. #MTG

Picked this up as a backup commander for my Brago deck, and man is it lovely. Honestly want to run it as the face commander just so I can keep looking at it 😅. #MTG

Had some fun with my youngest the other day as I was off and they had an inset day. So what better than seeing how Mothman and Alien Invaders cope when a T-Tex and some Raptors escape Jurassic Park.

@wib.bsky.social, wondering if you have ever considered playing Unmatched. Thought the Adventures: Tales of Amaze would be right up your alley, what with Mothman and friends.

Painting and playing #Unmatched atm, and why did I wait so long to start. It’s such a fun game. If you haven’t tried it I would recommend.

By the end of 2023 I’d managed paint up 100pts of Unlimited Mercenary. This years to do list is to get my Soldiers of Fortune Prime force up to 100pts, play in a tournament or two, and also start a second (Mk4) faction.
