Italians are awesome.

Last weekend, Alessandro Piroddi hosted two sessions of Hell for Leather at Internoscon 2010 in Emilia Romagna, northern Italy.

There are two playtest reports which I’d like to share with you sometime soon. For now, here’s a video of their antics. It really is Dice Tower Madness!

Grazie mile!
