  • Star Wars Armada – Base Defense Fighter Wing

    The recent Armada game was a good chance to attempt to video and record the game, for posting on YouTube.  It was played as a straight forward 2v2 game, using our typical random mission (Base Defense Fighter Wing).  Both sides started very evenly, and the game ended up very close, with a couple of solid…

  • Rise of the Runelords, Chapter 3.1 (video)

    Another round of the Pathfinder campaign, starting Chapter 3 of the Rise of the Runelords this time.  The group of 10 adventurers are still at level 7, but after their success in the second chapter, managed to gather a small number of magical items to assist with their questing.  The latest session was unfortunately unable…

  • Update to Trees

    Previously I posted that I was working on a template system for forests and trees, for use during our RPG sessions.  I spent some time, and created a full sheet template, and then printed a few copied out on transparencies.  My plan is to try them out during our Sunday regular game, and see how…

  • Rebel Fleet dispatched

    Its been a while, between house projects, travel, and other distractions, but I am going to try to get a game of Armada together with my son George on Friday.  If others from our gaming group are interested, perhaps turn it into a larger game.  But we haven’t had the time to play, though he…

  • RPG gaming schedule

    No update this weekend for the Pathfinder game (we are about to start Chapter 3 of Rise of the Runelords), due to our efforts with the kitchen.  The next scheduled game is set for March 26 at 2 PM, where I hope to potentially be able to stream the session, but will definitely be able…

  • Trees!

    When you game, assuming you use a battlemat or tile system, how do you typically handle trees when the group is adventuring in a forest?  In my case, on a blank battlemat, I either draw a rough line to indicate the edge of the forest and define one side as clear, and the other as…

  • Rise of the Runelords, Chapter 2.9

    After many game sessions, we finally managed the finale of Chapter 2, with the group facing the snake behind the scenes.  In the previous session, the group had tracked the villain’s plot to the Shadow Clock, located in the Underbridge region of Magnimar.  After dealing with the golem guardian at the base, they ascended the…

  • Pathfinder, creating a magic item inventory

    During our ongoing Pathfinder campaign, with the large 10 player group, we encountered a challenge.  The group, having advanced a bit in levels, and acquired a bit of treasure, entered the city of Magnimar.  Very soon, the thought became “what can we spend out money on?”  For an experienced group, not a big deal, everyone…
