Notes from Hades

hope that the holidays find everyone well and that the new year brings only good things for you..

We have had one game end this issue: Dog Chow, the Age of Renaissance game. Congratulations to Paul Bolduc on his victory. With that, the next Age of Renaissance game, Greyhound will be starting up next issue.

The next deadline is Tuesday, February 5 at 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time. Please do not call or fax orders after 10:00 p.m. Pacific time. My wife and I tend to retire early. Also, if you want to fax in orders, call first. We hang up on unannounced faxes.
