Starter boards
Each one is a board somebody could be staring at tonight: the options as tiles, a few of them heavy, one or two already ruled out, and the tree of futures that are still open. 101 futures between them.
Every figure is invented. Open a board, replace the numbers with your own and move the tiles. The board travels inside the link, so nothing is sent anywhere, and the table asks before it puts your own board aside.
