@wadehistory.bsky.socialReposted by @lhaasis.bsky.social@jakedyble.bsky.social's new card game, Fortuna, is launching on Kickstarter soon! I've played this game *many* times over the years – I can vouch that medieval/early modern, maritime and commercial historians (and others!) will have *lots* of fun with it.
