Got Dragons Down back to the table again today. Only managed to score 15 LP (20 is considered a 'win' and 30 is a 'legendary win'). Had some bad luck discovering treasure sites and finding legendary treasures. Really looking forward to the expansions showing up at the end of the year.

So... Shadowdark. I love it conceptually, but I've run it a couple times now and parts of it are falling a little flat for me. I picked this game because it seems to sit in a nice niche between DCC, OSE, and 5e, but simpler than all of them. Curious to hear tips/tricks from others. [more below]

This may be the map for an upcoming Shadowdark campaign. Drop in/drop out/West Marches style. At Wunderbar in Bellevue - Third Thursday of the month. Next game is supposed to be March 20. More details when I get them.

More Saturday morning baking. First attempt at English Muffins was pretty good. They were a King Arthur kit, but I'll do it from scratch next time. The bread is my is my regular Pain de Champagne sourdough.
