Years ago I used to play tabletop RPG games. One time I met a guy and we became friends. We’ve seen each other on the weekly gaming sessions but every now and then he was unavailable due to other arrangements. At some point I learned he was spending some weekends with his disabled neighbor playing various card games and (pardon lack of specific language) some warhammer figure like strategies. I said I would like to be a part of those sessions and eventually we formed an unusual “fellowship”. Few years later when the disabled boy passed away, his mother said that these weekends were what kept him going.

Somebody may correct me, but I believe “wargaming” is the term you were looking for
I’m gonna watch this, but it’s gonna make me cry man haha
I also had a friend on WoW who also had an incurable illness and eventually passed away. We spent hours together on Ventrilo back in the day
We were Horde though, lol
I want to watch this but also know it will wreck me
Even just the article was making me feel strange emotions
Oh man. Onions.
For Azeroth, Ibelin.
Google says this documentary is on Netflix for those also curious. Haven’t logged in to verify, but maybe someone else can fact check that.
At least in Germany it is available on Netflix.
But be warned: the trailer attracted a legion of Ninjas who immediately started cutting onions in my living room.
This movie is a must watch. Absolutely bittersweet in the best way.
🥲
Heavy Edit: Just finished watching this documentary after reading this article. Truly a heartwarming story, but is definitely a tearjerker at times. Great watch.
