					<description><![CDATA[Haven&#8217;t blogged in a while but I have gotten some games in and can&#8217;t wait to talk about them. The main idea here is one of setting up conditions and then paying them off.  It applies to multiple board games, and I&#8217;ll discuss it by looking at 3 fairly different games in Unmatched, Black Rose &#8230;]]></description>

The latest is Darth Wolverine (Aaron) ranking all 80 Geektopia decks!  He&#8217;s been doing one a day, and we&#8217;ve been discussing them.  We&#8217;re currently a little over halfway through, here&#8217;s where he had things stacked up at the halfway mark: #80: &#8230;]]></description>

These are great &#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve always considered having quality figures to be a huge part of the appeal of Epic Duels. I&#8217;ve told bits and pieces of this story before but back in 2003 or so, I was buying extra sets of Epic Duels and modding figures, sometimes even using clay to mold capes and that sort of thing.  &#8230;]]></description>
