So Jon and I played Magic since our D&D session got kind of a late start. I have some older decks full of cards that are not old enough to be valuable and not new enough to be hip with current game play. Actually pretty much all of my collection is like that but it's still such a great game. Some of my favorite combos are still old-school: Orcish Artillery with Spirit Link. Elves with, well with more elves (same thing for merfolk). Goblin Recruiter with Song of Blood. Emperial Armor with weenie birds. Yeah, I guess maybe I'm easily amused...
For D&D it was Hadgi & Foxy, Shamash, Willakers and Jorel vs. the Aboleths and Kua-Toa. Basically it was to be a prison break as it were, with 30' walls, crossbowmen and slime magic protecting two cells which supposedly held the Deva architects of the Dragonborn city Bane is planning to invade. Combat wise we did fine, but in the end the prisoners were not there. Our best guess is that the intel was old and the prisoners were moved before we got there or perhaps teleported at the last minute. Anyway, we did level to 18th. Treasure wise there wasn't much of value.
Oh, so I was leveling up Min (B-Team)and yes, I remembered we do get 1 first level magic item.

Nov. 20 B Team & Gamma World
Again, I didn't get a blog entry in right away. So we played the B Team and finished taking out the leadership of the Blue hand goblin clan at Port Hope, a silver-mining and fishing village built long ago by dwarves and previously rescued but then forgotten. Anyway, the party leveled to 2nd level.
Fat Groley is a bugbear ardent who is the party's motivational speaker. He lives in a bog down by the river.
Min Vizardio "of the Formorian Empire" is a gnome warden who claims he was supposed to be a wizard but instead of connecting to the arcane world, he discovered a liking for nature and the art of the short sword and shield.
Gnoll is a half-orc battlemind who stubbornly insists that no deity should hold sway over people. He is very independent.
Cyn'Dar is a dragonborn wizard who loves fire. Yes, wizard -- you heard right.
Gibbon Ghoulish is a dwarf rogue who likes the finer things in life and dresses much like a musketeer.
Scourge is a revenant deva cleric virtually drowning in his own hypocrisy. Good guy though once you get past the fact that he resembles DEATH and wields a scythe. Once you get to know him.
Orin Banner is a human paladin who is gifted at the wrong things to be a paladin - which bothers him not at all.

Okay, so then we played some Gamma World. Good game, simple to play right out of the box and a lot of fun. I like that it doesn't take itself too seriously. Mechanics are good too.
