Spring time, spring time! I got to enjoy the transition weeks with my cozy denim jacket and now, I can enjoy short sleeves and no jackets. My wife and I can take long walks around or neighborhood. And my inbox gets half a dozen emails a day wondering when we will announce the changes to [...]
Today’s the day that we finally complete our summary of the new 2011 HeroClix Core Rulebook update.
