The game that grabbed my attention the fastest was Dialect. I've loved the idea since I saw the Kickstarter, but I've never actually played it. Need to fix that.

My first writing credit on a ttrpg was The Great Beast of Dupont, a zine adventure for Best Left Buried.

First game I played online was Band of Blades, which I ran over lockdown. I was lucky enough to have an incredible trio of players, and we told an epic story together.

The first game I ran was Hunter: the Reckoning. WoD definitely had me in its clutches in my teens and early twenties!

The first proper campaign I played in was Vampire: the Masquerade, when I was a student.

Honourable mentions:

The first game I bought was Werewolf: the Apocalypse, second edition. The clawmark cut-out on the front cover caught my eye in a book shop, and I couldn't resist.

Tor, the evidence that you're some kind of fey creature is certainly stacking up.

A slide that reads "Presenting games primarily as  consumer products undermines arguments to preserve and make them accessible as an art form." from a MAGFest panel. That panel from the Dark Knight Returns where he breaks the gun also is on there.

That's what I'm talking about.

Risk Legacy is £18 in Morrisons! As a game it's fine, but as an artefact of board game history it's a must-have. The game that kicked off the Legacy craze, and pioneered several things that are now commonplace.

We've got two copies. Never finished either.

Got a pitch for a high-risk game show exclusively for German coeliacs:

Gluten Tag.

I'll see myself out.

Hi Jay! I have a ten year old daughter who obsesses over your videos. I'm thinking of bringing her on Wednesday, do you get many kids at these? I don't wanna bring her if it's an adults only affair.

I'm so sorry, I hope you can overcome this setback.
