I live in the Chicago area. I was born in the 70s and I have a wife, 2 kids and a white picket fence (its brown actually), but I've got a great life. I'm a sales manager at a mattress/furniture store and a life long gamer. Hero quest got my journey started with fantasy board games.

I got into at the very beginning in 1E and playtested the master set and a few factions after that. I think I saw an advertisement on bgg and bought it straight away. I can safely say this is my favorite 2 player game of all time. It's a perfect combination of chess and essentially a fantasy miniature game at the same time. I played table top warhammer for years and it's too expensive. Setup and tear down are a nightmare. This game has streamlined every thing I was looking for. I love the physical game I think even more than playing online.

Tough one. Depends on my mood but I think I have to say breakers. I love that you can get very creative with your turns. There are many paths to victory with them and I enjoy putting a creative turn together that I know my opponent did not prepare for. Favorite card is Varn. I think he's one of the best champions in the game and a lot of fun to use.

2 things. One: A first hand mulligan Two: A once a game reroll for both players that could be used anytime (only for your dice). It's tough outplaying your opponent and losing to bad dice but that's summoner wars.

I have over 600 games on steam and a shit ton of board games.Atm I'm enjoying helldivers 2 , warhammer total war 3 and age of wonders 4. Second favorite card game, marvel champions.
