Each week I'm going to take a look back at the previous week. Basically, an in-depth #WhatDidYouPlayMondays. I will be talking about the games I played, any events I was involved with, etc.

Last week was awesome gaming wise. I've got an extensive Pile of Shame and getting games off of that pile feels good. I was able to take Wasteland Express Delivery Service, Hansa Teutonica and Warhammer Underworlds Shadespire off my pile this past week. I also got in another play of Bruges. Oh and of course there was some Azul being played. [ READ MORE ]
