Lorwyn Eclipsed was the first MtG set where I served as a lead art director. That meant getting to pitch what these special edition cards would look like, and bring on so many new artists from my picture book days!

Some more of the cards I ADd got spoiled today:

Took some time to unpack a few thoughts on Expedition 33.

Watching what I thought was a "pretty good" game get transformed into A Cultural Object has been disheartening.

So I have some thoughts on glitz, glamour, and respectability...

A rare interview with the creators of the always-funny, always-brilliant, and *usually*-sexy—or occasionally anti-sexy—OGLAF!

Cooper has kept a low profile over the years, but is legitimately one of the very best artists in comics today. Read OGLAF if you're old enough to drive!
Talking Oglaf with Trudy Cooper and Doug Bayne: 'We'd stay up all night drawing stuff to make each other laugh' - The Comics Journal
Other than some time off every year for Christmas, Trudy Cooper and Doug Bayne have delivered a new Oglaf comic, skewering fantasy tropes with absolutely not safe for work humor, every week since 2008...

Perhaps the most unexpected thing I learned from teaching fighting games over the last ten years is that the things people need to learn the most aren't really fighting game skills but life skills.

Fighting games just give you a fun way to expose these gaps before real life does.
FROM MASHER TO MASTER 2 IS OUT!

If you want to get into fighting games but don't know where to begin, this book will guide your journey.

Featuring art by @koh.money and a foreword by Gerald Lee of Core-A Gaming!

It’s a lovely day to be sitting outside reading. I don’t really care much about cricket but James’ writing on specifically West Indies cricket and how it relates to race and colonialism is fantastic.

Painted up a small warband for a skirmish game I put together as a fun exercise in trying to write my own rules for a game (lair-of-the-lagomorph.itch.io/masse-darmes if you want to check it out). I see the knights as a bodyguard for the excellent Seer model by @badsquiddogames.bsky.social.

I think Magic: The Gathering is at an extremely bad place right now, and I think the recent Spider-Man set is a true low point. I went slightly wild in my @endlessmode.bsky.social column this week about it. Tune in for the phrase "suckling hogs" www.endlessmode.com/tabletop/mag...

Magic: The Gathering fans have been dealt a bad hand with the card game's unexciting, misguided new Spider-Man set.

Excellent time playing #Midgard last night with @djchamb.online and other friends. Made good use of the bases I made last week and my Warhammer collection. Skaven and Undead vs Dwarves and Bretonnians, with some Treemen spicing up the action! #spreadthelard #wargaming

I love unfair flips by @hthrflwrs.bsky.social, here's a screenshot of me hitting 9 heads in a row with the coin odds starting at 25%. Almost hit the perfect speedrun of the game.
