In lieu of the official fourteenth post, Best Convention Purchase, I’m just going to share my 2014 Gen Con haul! Starting in the top middle and going clockwise, we’ve got: Era of the Ninja! This is an advance shipment of a game made by my friend and fellow Wittenberg alumnus Eric Ebbs!

The first time I ever saw one was at summer camp in sixth grade, where a girl had her nose in a Forgotten Realms book whenever we had down time. I remember asking her about it, but the cover art and characters didn’t appeal to me (it wasn’t pretty...
