    OML is just around the corner, so I figured I should get cracking on some stuff for my Barons War Dux Britanniarum game. The honey from the Abbey at Larddingham makes the best mead in Christendom, so the beekeepers are protective of their hives. A midden pile and a hay pile for the game done as well

    Can’t recommend Mystery of the Abbey more highly. It’s the game we’ve played most in the last two weeks since the KS arrived. A gorgeous mix of Cluedo and Guess Who with a raft of sinister looking monks. Beautifully made and lots of fun.

    Although the in-game Hollywood Forever Cemetery doesn't resemble its real-world counterpart, the mausoleum is a strong match for the Abbey of the Psalms.

    In my home Nightwick Abbey game, the PCs have made "friends" with one a cult dedicated to the Baroness of the Abbey. Then the PCs picked a fight with them, lost, and lost a mysterious golden skull because of it. Let's look at Gertrude and Her Man-Eaters: icastlight.blogspot.com/2025/02/gert...

    There's tons of this stuff and, like with JP games, not all of it stays untranslated forever. Take for example La Abadía del Crimen/The Abbey of Crime, a classic Spanish adventure inspired by Umberto Eco that received a remake a few years back whose translation was backported to the Amstrad version

    Last night's regulation win for Cambridge United at home to Accrington was my last game of 2025. I reckon I must have seen 20 matches at the Abbey this year, around 10 at Elland Road plus games at Lincoln, Orient, Berwick, Doncaster, Sutton and Benfica. Bristol City (h) was special. #my2025 #lufc

    There are so many things that speak to me in this - I was just a bit too young to properly remember my family trips to Barrow-in-Furness to appreciate them. But there's something about walking up to the ground game after game that stays with you. The walk to the Abbey sticks with me. #CamUTD

    When Will wants to give up on fighting the vampire (dnd game character) Dustin realizes they can summon the “mage from the Abbey of St Markovia.” In DnD a mage is just a general term for a sorcerer or spell caster. Also St Markovia was named after a priestess of the morninglord (sun god)

I really love the fucking around at the Abbey portions of this game, and it feels like that can make or break your enjoyment of the game

    Everton to win in ninety fifth minute? I used to see David Moyes at the Abbey mid 1980's. Played a competent honest game within his (slightly limited skillset). More than good enough for the level at the time. But wow, other than the kiss of death as the anointed one after Ferguson, what a career!

    I want to finish my latest NG+ for the dlc but I’m at the Abbey and it’s honestly my least favorite part of the game. It used to the the Grand Exhibition but that one grew on me, but the Abbey hasn’t, and it’s tiring how long it is, not to mention how easy it is to fall from places.
