I fell back asleep for a while after my last post. Sometimes when I wake at 4am I'm up for good, other times I can fall back asleep after a bit.

Played Gloomhaven last night instead of hot tub. I'm enjoying the Guildmaster mode more than the Campaign mode at the moment, but I'm playing some of each. I was battling three rooms of wolves and imps and my last character collapsed when the last enemy had only one hit point left, nooooooooo! Couldn't have been any closer to victory!

My new laptop can run Gloomhaven Digital!!!!

So now I don't need to take over the dining table for weeks at a time to play it ... how much of 2023 will I spend playing Gloomhaven Digital?

Lily and Pyra were overjoyed! Their strategy worked! As they defeated the monsters in the second room, they split up to open both of the remaining doors, hoping to lure both new sets of monsters into the second room, so Lily wouldn't exhaust herself running back and forth, and so they could fight side-by-side. Best of all worlds ( Read more... )

Pyra defeated the last of the three monsters easily, "Wow, we cleared this room in half the time, and we're in much better shape afterward ( Read more... )

We were barely able to clear the second room of monsters before Lily fell exhausted, and I had barely enough energy left to pick up the remaining loot, so ... I carried Lily back to camp ( Read more... )
