Posted another set of areas for this dungeon a few days ago:

Areas #14-16: Rail Tunnel

And I've started drafting the next area(s) to be posted. About 2/3 of the dungeon is now complete.

Thanks, brute!

I've posted one more area since my last update:
Area #17: Holding Area

* * * *  *

And I recently realized that I never finished up my Gary Con XIV (2022) report, so I just posted a belated third installment covering Saturday and Sunday.

Here is the complete series:

Day 1: Thursday

Day 2: Friday

Days 3 and 4: Saturday and Sunday

Thanks for the link, by which I learned that what I assumed was a large flat-panel display on screensaver mode is actually a window. Us D&D players sometimes require a nudge in the right direction to distinguish the fantasy world from the outside world.

Ha! I can see that now. The Legends of Wargaming hall and the one next to it buck the trend of the typical windowless caverns that most con games take place in.

I thought that was the typical windowless cavern and LoW splashed out on a huge Oled backdrop.


This week I've been mostly eating . . . The white ones with the little red flecks in them.
