2nd Place, and recepient of the Bach Prize:

Writer: sbarrera
Game: Arkham Horror
Musical Award:



"A chilling, riveting account of one (foolish) woman's quest to rid Arkham of its serpentine Horror!"

sbarrera, I think this work by Bach not only serves to set the eerie background of a trip through Arkham, but also foreshadows the terror to come...enjoy!

1st Place, and recepient of the Mozart Prize:

Writer: Aarontu
Game: Zombie in my Pocket
Musical Award:



"A hilarious and original take on the well-worn story of hero against zombie horde...a must read for any fan of zombies and comedy!"

Aarontu, I got lucky and managed to find a piece by the illustrious master that not only brings to mind the chase inherent in the report, but also the whimisical, comedic nature of our protagonist. Enjoy!

So on and on I trudge, attempting to catch up on these reports...wish me luck!

Indeed, this is a fantastic session report of one of my favorite games ;). I'm really pleased with the quality (and quantity: 19) of session reports that Zombie in my Pocket has encouraged.
