The FOUR <em>Magic: The Gathering<\/em>\u00a0&#8220;expedition lands&#8221; I&#8217;ve pulled this year. That includes an definition of the expeditions for those new to Magic, why they are worth so much, and how ridiculous it is that I pulled four. I traded away three to my friend Charlie, and he&#8217;s matched their MSRP value for useful cards that I can use to play the game. I kind of felt dirty posting this, since it would just be me bragging that I got very lucky finding four expeditions out of their packaging. However, I may be convinced to write this without gloating.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"  wp-image-176 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/dredtabletop.files.wordpress.com\/2016\/04\/magic-origins-logo.jpg?w=229&#038;h=129\" alt=\"Magic-origins-logo\" width=\"229\" height=\"129\" \/><\/p>\n<p>\u2663 &#8211; The TWO\u00a0<em>Magic: The Gathering\u00a0<\/em>booster drafts I&#8217;ve done this year.

The footage looks quite amateurish and unfocused at times, so I&#8217;ve held off posting it. When I get time to edit it and condense it into my best five minutes, maybe I&#8217;ll post it.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"  wp-image-179 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/dredtabletop.files.wordpress.com\/2016\/04\/en_innistrad_header.jpg?w=307&#038;h=179\" alt=\"EN_Innistrad_Header\" width=\"307\" height=\"179\" \/><\/p>\n<p>\u2665 &#8211; The\u00a0<em>Dungeons &amp; Dragons 5th<\/em><em>\u00a0Edition<\/em> I played THIS weekend.

Yeah, I have a little bit of a Magic Addiction, but honestly, Magic is a fantastic game which can lend its story and characters into a variety of tabletop games, not just its mainstay \u00a0TWENTY-THREE year-running card game. Maybe talking about that is a post in itself?<\/p>\n<p>So you see, I&#8217;m not gone, just busy with classes and not sure which of any of this to write about.
