I struggle sometimes to find the enthusiasm to play at times. Being constantly flogged can really affect your capacity to think you can win. It seems to be a factor that once I start to lose my whole outlook changes, I never seem to get the die rolls I need, my troops never seem to be in the right place and position as my opponent. It's almost as though I inflict misfortune and depression on my game.
Here are some photos of the night with some commentary to go with it.
One day I may even know what it is to be a good player.
