My First ITC Tournament: Why Competitive Play is Important
I am happy to report back to all my narrative campaign players and open-play aficionados that if you wanted to dip a toe into competitive play, you won’t regret it.
The Big FAQ, and Why It’s Good.
So let me open up with saying this: the “Big FAQ” is here and it’s glorious.
