Fresh from the rave cave of the Victoria Warehouse in Manchester, Tabletop Gaming Live has just wrapped.
The event sponsored by FanBoy3, SteamForged Games, Hall or Nothing and Tabletop Manchester was put on by the Tabletop Gaming Magazine and battled through many C19 cancellations to get this far.
As some attendees, like this blogger, battled through strike-Brexit-Royal-funeral traffic/cancellations, the Tabletop Gaming Awards 2022 were announced. If some of these don’t look very 2022 or even 2021 to you, that might be due to the cancellations and rescheduling of the event. I admit I’m struggling on some!
Let’s take a look!
