Orcs in the Webbe: Advent Calender 2013 Now Live


Just received this news from Craig Andrews, the former editor of Barking Irons and now owner of Orcs in the Webbe. Heya Folks! The 2013 Advent Calendar is now live. For the next 24 days Orcs in the Webbe (OITW) will provide you with a new article every day, each one filled with gaming goodness as we count down to Christmas.
The layout is slightly different this year as I really wanted to capture the feel of an advent calendar. I will be posting here every day at some point with a direct link to let you know what's online and also providing a launching point for what I'm sure will be animated discussion. However if you don't want to wait and like to open your advent calendar in the morning you can head over to the main OITW page everyday after 7am GMT and see what's been revealed - the windows are jumbled up, just like an actual advent calendar so if you can't see a particular day scroll down, all 24 windows are there.

Today they have released an easy and fun game of buzkashi which is fully card driven. It looks very fun when readin it though so I will probably give it a try on the right occasion. If you don't know what buzkashi is, it's a game where players must move a piece of goat of something similar to earn points. I think I saw it featured in Lawrence of Arabia but can be mistaken. Take a look here.
