Questions for Donna

@Thain1982:

Do you have any tabletop games you always want to play, or do you like to cycle through a wide variety?

Along those lines, are there tabletop publishers/creators you're a constant fan of?

Do you prefer using minis and set gameboards or pure pencil and paper around the table?

What we’re playing:

Donna: World of Warcraft, CIV V, DAI!

Tanya: Overwatch Open Beta, DAI
