  • 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. With several missions and quests in hand, the group is a bit fragmented, but rapidly getting organized. As a change for this campaign, I am requiring all the players to track their own gear. In the…

  • Kingmaker, episode 3 – Spider Warren

    Continued our Kingmaker campaign on Sunday, with the full crowd this time. Having established themselves at Oleg’s Trading Post, the group started their exploration, and located a giant spider nest nearby. 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…

  • Kyras, Marra, and Lanliss

    Our third group is another family of three, and veterans of our prior campaign Craig is playing Kyras, a Half-Elf Inquisitor of Iomedae. Craig has painted figures before, but I honestly am not sure if he painted this one, or it was pre-painted. Either way, the figure is well done, and represents his character well.…

  • Aliah, Violet, and Strider

    Our second group is one of the families that are part of our group – the parents and their son. Carter is playing Aliah No, the Half-Orc Monk (thus the green skin). He painted the figure himself, and I believe this was his first figure, which turned out pretty good. In the previous campaign, Carter…

  • Durgham and Pokey

    The first of our new adventuring group are my sons, each playing their respective characters (who have no in-game relationship). The first is George, who is playing Durgham Tess, an Elven Warpriest of Erastil. His figure was painted entirely by himself, this is his second figure, but the quality is very decent. He has been…
