Article idea: "Power-max your playgroup"

While reading WG Sebald last night I scribbled in the margin, "Kaalia and Tariel, the best Nazi angels since Mengele"

prism, but the other ones serve more essential functions. there isn't much difference between mana rock x and mana rock y. i could see myself running 2 talismans or something like that.

ano share your legacy cube!

any chatter about Hearthstone yet here?

Having gone crazy myself I am a huge fan of both HST and Terry Gilliam. Cue the puns about Brazil Nuts and Brazilian Waxes
