Merry Cheesemas everyone!

Holiday greetings from the Basement o'Rabbits!

Last night we had daughter number 2's young man for our Christmas Eve tourtiere.  He gave my daughter "Exploding Kittens" (the NSFW edition) which caused some after dinner jocularity. Mrs. Rabbitman enjoyed making me explode. It is a simple but interesting game with unique decision points and strategies.

This morning I found some extra yummies in my stocking with the nuts and figs.


Three locally produced cheeses.  Once the driving is done I'm looking forward to tucking into these and the port.

Daughter number 2 also gave me some G.M. Fraser novels and Mrs Rabbitman has some Crescent Root Studio buildings on order for me.

I hope everyone has a good holiday season.

    A truly informative post - I came away from it with two pieces of new knowledge.. I know now what a tourtiere is (and I fancy a slice!), and I also learned about the existence of "Exploding Kittens".. :o))

      I should also add that Mrs Rabbitman's recipe is particularly good.
      We've had some tourtiere that is a bit runny.

    Is the crescent root studios 15mm terrain scaled close enough to be used with elhiem figures? I know you've scratch built some/most of the Afghanistan terrain, but are you also using CRS buildings on it as well?

      I am getting some NW European buildings for my WW2 games. I don't know if the Elheim Figures will look over sized or not.
      Watch this space I'll try to remember to posted a picture when I get them.
      With boxy mud brick central Asian construction though​ I'd rather build my own and save my money for more complex architecture.
