    Entirely new side project, I am working on a way to auto-stream 3d printing progress via Twitch. Not that there is a big audience to watch a printer run for 24 hours, but there might be some curiousity. Really, it is just an exercise to see if I can do it – I already have…

    Another Wednesday, and a new Star Wars Legion game pitting the Republic Clones against the CIS Droids. Mission selection ended up with a “Intercept the Transmissions”, during “Clear Conditions”, and a “Roll-out” deployment. I was playing my unmodified Droids, while Thad was playing George’s standard Clone force. Terrain was decidedly “fantasy”, utilizing a fair bit…

    Planning on holding another game session of Twilight Imperium, sometime over the Christmas holiday. What better way to celebrate the spirit of peace and joy of the holidays, than to fight over galactic domination. At this point, tentatively looking at the 28th or 29th due to scheduling, but will really depend on player availability. Potentially…

    After 7 full sessions, we drew a close to the first chapter of the Carrion Crown campaign. The final battle with the primary villain, the angry spirit of the Splatterman, was hard fought and very nearly rather deadly, but the group managed to pull out a win in the end. Of note, since we are…

    As part of my design for the gaming table, I have several cutouts in the surface to accommodate cables and wires for the electronics. This allows me to have a mostly seamless surface, and still have the digital table and microphones – without cables going thru the table below, or on the surface. However, when…

    In reviewing the video for the last Carrion Crown stream, I was dismayed to discover that the audio was rather poor. In general, the volume was too low. My own voice was passable and could be understood, and some of the players were quiet but still workable. About half the table though was effectively speaking…

    This weekend sees a return to our Carrion Crown campaign, following numerous conflicts over the last several weeks. I was going to pre-schedule a live stream on YouTube, but apparently a recent update has removed that option. Yes, we will be gaming, and there will be a live stream, but I can’t apparently pre-publish any…

    After the one-sided battle last week, we have challenged ourselves to repeat the battle, with lessons learned. Per our house standard, the victor (myself with Separatists) have not modified the force, while the loser (Republic) has made some adjustments. With those changes, a bit more time to analyze and consider the battlefield, and (hopefully) a…
