Does the aesthetic of most train games leave you feeling ‘meh’?
The Old Prince 1871 from @grandtrunkgames just might be THE ONE, in that case!
We are streaming it tomorrow at 1500 EDT. Come check it out for yourselves!

HeavyCon 9 was a fantastic success and it seems everyone had a really great time! Over half have already pre-registered for next year, which is the ultimate litmus test.
A HUGE THANK YOU to @AllplayHQ (& @Azkad0rkable) for supporting the convention! #3Witches FTW!
