Ottawa - Game Stores

I visited four places that sold games in Ottawa. Strategy Games and The Comic Shop had good selection (especially Strategy Games). My two favorites were The Loft and Fandom II.

The Loft is located in a historical building with a bar and games to play downstairs and a loft with games to play and for sale upstairs. I liked the vibe here and picked up two new games on sale.


Fandom II has board, war, miniature, and role playing games. I had been here before almost a decade ago an it has the same great mix of items for sale. I picked up some token here but could have bought more if I had the room.

Malifaux 3rd edition Open Beta


Now that the closed beta is done, the open beta is live! This edition looks like an improvement with better crew building, clear LOS sight rules, ability to use cover to defend against melee attacks, streamlined model card rules, and so much more. Take a look!

Broken Toad - Guildball Terrain part 2 of 2

 This is the second and last batch of a Guildball terrain kickstarter from Broken Toad. I am again quite happy how they painted up. I do have separate guild themed balls that I will be painting as I finish each of those guilds. I like the fact I can use many of these for other games, like Malifaux, Batman, and Carnivale.
 Fast terrain although in hind sight I should have gotten the cow one for variety.
 Forest or rough ground and rough ground.
 Barriers.
Obstacles.
