This June 4th and 5th, my son and I attended the Tabletop Minions Expo (TMX) in Oshkosh WI. It’s a very small affair put on by Adam Loper, host of the Tabletop Minions show.

It’s one week from our annual Mech Attack game at Adepticon (Saturday at 10AM) and I’m working like mad to finish up this year’s additions. Two years ago, we added a short train line.
