The City of Corsairs

The City of the Corsairs is the final chapter pack of the epic Dreamchaser cycle, and is one of the most uniquely designed quests in the entire game.

I also occasionally publish decks in RingsDB as mduckworth83 (yeah, not very creative with gamer tags, I know!). I have been playing the game since about the time the … Continue reading Secrecy →
