The best game ever

I absolutely love this game it’s my favorite all time game and it just makes me happy that theirs so many possibilities of setups that I think this absolutely needs a expansion to it that has more opportunities for players to mess around with like for example more than just physical and magical attacks this already perfect but everything has the ability to improve just don’t change the fast pace of the game 👍👍👍👍👍
