#244: Oak (title padding)

2023-01-03T11:00:02Z

After much popular demand, we present to you the much-anticipated return of Masterpiece Theatre. Our esteemed patron–who is utterly unaware of our existence, such is his focus on his twin demesnes of fastness and furiousness–deserves no less. Of course, should His Grace, the Reverend Doktor Doktor Vincent, Duke of Diesel, Esq. O.B.E. ever condescend to acknowledge us plebs, we would no doubt swoon from appreciation. We would cherish so much as a grunt! Or a cease and desist!

I almost never get to play Time Barons, but I think it’s a fun design. I wish I had someone to play it with again.
