Never has losing a battle and seeing a village sacked been so much… “fun”.

I’m still not decided on just how long I want to run this series. The content under level ten is good (for my purposes) as is some content approaching level 20.

The optimist wrote this week’s Experienced Points article.

Then the two of them sat down to have a chat…
