I'm back and ready to jump back into the swing of things. I'll be covering a selection of releases from the past two weeks, to make up for my vacation last week. I'd also mentioned a few weeks ago that I'm opening a brick and mortar game store; the soft launch is the upcoming Saturday, July 1st. If you're in the central Virginia region and want to stop by we'd love to see you! I'll have a pretty wide selection of OSR and indie games in stock (pretty much my entire webstore will be in stock). You can find the store at Sabre Games and Cards on Facebook.
