What rares do you have?


I remember I have the Bronze Tablet(?) from the early edition. Not sure about the rest to be honest. I haven't used them for almost a decade.

Then you and your kids can enjoy the Collectible Card Game hobby together.

My dad bought our family a foosball table when I was a kid (it ended up getting sold when I went off to college). Used to play it all the time. Got pretty good at it. My foosball skillz are the only thing I'll ever brag about. I'm a foosball beast.

PS: No spinning.

How about grabbing the poles for the other side or trying to skewer your opponent by waiting until he get a little too close to one of yours?
