  • New RPG options

    Been having some email discussions with my long term gaming friends, and entertaining the idea of starting up a second bi-weekly schedule. Still very preliminary, and no idea of who or what, but been brainstorming various options. Listed in no particular order is some ideas I have: Warhammer Fantasy setting with GURPs mechanics (aka, GURPs…

  • New world in Atlas

    As we continue our adventures in the Atlas online game, the server we currently play on suffered a catastrophic outage. In the process of updating maps and islands, the entire save file was corrupted, meaning it was effectively an unexpected progress wipe. Not really a big deal, gave us a chance to clean out the…

  • Age of Ashes

    For our upcoming Pathfinder 2 campaign, we are going to be running the soon-to-be-published Age of Ashes campaign from Paizo. With this campaign, I am going to make the attempt to restart my video logs of the game sessions, and hopefully improve the end result a bit from various lessons I have learned from previous…

  • Kingmaker, Episode 4 – Werewolves and Mites

    In our latest episode, the group continued their exploration of the Kamelands, branching further away from Oleg’s Trading Post.

Deciding it was best to investigate and eliminate the threat, they initially were attacked by a single spider – which was defeated rather easily.…

  • Atlas 1.5

    Switching topics over to the video game arena, today is the release of the long awaited Atlas 1.5 “MegaUpdate”. If you are not familiar with Atlas, it is a survival sandbox game with a pirate theme – and one that continues to hold the attention of our family. Up until recently, we were playing on…

  • Zombicide – Quest 9 completed

    As planned, we tackled Quest 9 (“The Hellhole”) of Zombicide: Black Plague over the weekend. And as before, we started off rough, and then restarted – in this case, the group opened the first door directly into an Abomination. Without any gear or dragon bile, we all agreed to reset and restart. The second attempt…

  • Quest 9 – The Hellhole

    Planning another round of Zombicide: Black Plague this Sunday, with an attempt at Quest 9 (The Hellhole) with the group. This is another hard mission (second to the last), with a mechanics twist that should prove a bit challenging. Most of the board is relatively straight forward, but there is a timer and timing mechanism…
