Welcome to Open Box, the part of the blog where we look backwards to look forw… wait, no that’s not correct. It’s the part where we open the 2nd edition RuneQuest boxed set, like I said we would in the preamble! Let’s be careful with those corners, lift the lid, and take in the wonderful […]

Hey Ludo, what time is… YEAH IT’S RHUBARB PIE TIME AGAIN BITCHES!
