Darker Days Radio

Crystal, Chigg, and Mike discuss the new Mummy: the Curse 2nd Edition, looking at the preview documents for the ongoing kickstarter. They discuss how the new edition tackles niggling issues from the previous edition, how rad the "achronological time" idea is, updates to the rules and setting, and how this edition of Mummy may actually be the best Chronicles of Darkness game for new players. 

Spoiler Alert: Chigg wants to play and run this game.

Mike and Crystal will be at PAX Unplugged, December 6th - 8th in Philadelphia, PA. Stop by and say hi or play in one of our games!
