Eric WagonerandClaude Opus 4.8 f6611257b3 Add themed board game library at /mygames/
Embed the bggpipe "Game Shelves" export (static/games/) into a themed
Hugo page. A small loader (embed.js) fetches each export page, lifts out
its <main>, rewrites relative URLs, and rewires game links to ?g=<slug>
so the blog chrome stays on every page; embed.css scopes the export's
component styling to the embed. The export itself is untouched and stays
re-exportable. Adds the menu entry and excludes badges/ from deploy.

<div class="card desc">Gloomhaven: Jaws of the Lion is a standalone game that takes place before the events of Gloomhaven. The game includes four new characters — Valrath Red Guard (tank, crowd control), Inox Hatchet (ranged damage), Human Voidwarden (support, mind control), and Quatryl Demolitionist (melee damage, obstacle manipulation) — that can also be used in the original Gloomhaven game.
The game also includes 16 monster types (including seven new standard monsters and three new bosses) and a new campaign with 25 scenarios that invites the heroes to investigate a case of mysterious disappearances within the city. Is it the work of Vermlings, or is something far more sinister going on?
Gloomhaven: Jaws of the Lion is aimed at a more casual audience to get people into the gameplay more quickly. All of the hard-to-organize cardboard map tiles have been removed, and instead players will play on the scenario book itself, which features new artwork unique to each scenario. The last barrier to entry — i.e., learning the game — has also been lowered through a simplified rule set and a five-scenario tutorial that will ease new players into the experience.</div>
