Chapter 2, Episode 3 – Covid
With our latest session of Age of Ashes, we adjusted to our Covid-19 process – meaning we suspended the face to face session, in favor of an online format using Fantasy Grounds Unity and Discord. Despite the large group of 10 players, the tools worked rather well – we were successful in holding a regular…

Miniature Monday – Legion X-Wing
Expanding my Star Wars: Legion terrain with several models in progress. First completed is a scale model of an X-Wing, complete with movable wings, landing gear, and a removable R2 druid. Ideally, yes, I would paint the model, but realistically it is not a high priority. The model is available on Thingiverse, and scaled specifically…

As mentioned previously, this is less “dragon” and much more “tiki”, mixing up the various cultures, but for our gaming purposes this was solid replacement. Painted, it…

Online Gaming
Up until yesterday, I had hopes that we would be able to continue with the face to face gaming schedule. Unfortunately, as the reality sets in, this is becoming less likely, so I am taking steps now to convert to online formats. I have configured a Discord server for our use, for voice chat. Conceivable…

Covid-19
As the Coronavirus continues to demolish the economy and most social interaction, I am working to proactively protect our hobby and gaming efforts. To this end, although we have not yet stopped our current live games, I am putting together processes to migrate to an online format. Fortunately these days, online RPG tools are abundant…
