The Spoils Hand

This past Saturday at #Origins2010, I was introduced to the TCG The Spoils.   I found it a refreshing new spin on card gaming.  I’ll be comparing The Spoils to Magic: The Gathering often, but that’s because it’s the card game that I’m most familiar with. But before I talk about that, I’ll give you a quick tour of my card gaming background.

I first started playing these type of games back in 1994 with MTG.  It was a new type of game for me and I was enthralled with it.  This lasted until ’95/’96. I just didn’t have time and/or money to keep my addiction going.

Dice Bag Far

Saw this question from @trafalger today on Twitter, and thought it was a great topic, since I too have been checking out apps in preparation for Origins & GenCon.

All apps listed are for Android, but i’m sure there are similar if not the same ones available for iPhone.

So far I’ve checked out some dice rolling apps, and have decided I like Dice Bag by droid hut the best so far.  Has options I can use across many games I play, and you can add custom die.  There a are a ton of dice rollers… find one that suits your tastes!
