  • Pathfinder – the final battle, part 1

    After many delays, we finally had what we believed to be the final battle with Karzoug. However, with our very large group of 10 players, and the complexity of the game at level 18, it simply did not go fast enough to wrap up in a single session. This was despite adding 2 hours to…

  • Gencon 2019

    For the first time ever for myself, we will be heading to Gencon to attend more than just a single day. Scheduling did not permit for the full 4 day event as originally planned, but we did manage to squeeze in plans for 2-days of convention fun. And the plans involved most of the current…

  • Star Wars Legion – Scout Troops

    Next set of the growing Imperial ground forces for Legion, with a squad of scout troopers (plus upgrades). If they manage to get painted, they will of course use the traditional white on black, though I know in the extended source material, they have branched out into actual camouflaged colors. Continuing to find it challenging…

  • Star Wars X-Wing – Fang Fighter

    Continuing my X-Wing collection, with another edition into the Scum faction. This one is the Fang Fighter, serving a role similar to the X-wing or basic TIE fighters, as a general combat addition. Not sure where this ship appears in the movies, books or other material, but that in itself doesn’t matter to me much.…

  • Rise of the Runelords Collectibles

    As a commemorative for our successful completion to the long running campaign (assuming the weather and schedules allow for our final session), I have been working on a collectible for each of the players. This is based off a design from Thingiverse for a dice case, which can also store a pencil and have a…

  • Star Wars Legion – The Emperor and his guard

    Another set of the Christmas additions to our Star Wars Legion set, consisting of the Emperor himself, and his Royal Guard. Unlike most of the Imperial forces, these won’t be the routine white on black, though of course I am not sure when I will manage to actually paint them. Worse, it is a challenge…

  • Pathfinder update

    The end is near for our ongoing Rise of the Runelords campaign, and yet, Karzoug continues to reach from his mountain perch and delay the group. In the most recent challenges, he summoned a snow storm that caused the cancellation of our latest game. Originally, we postponed until the following session, but we have several…

  • The short lived Hedwig’s Revenge

    I have been slacking off over this last week and not posting a daily note. I could claim it was work, but in reality it is distractions caused by video games. In this case, the new pre-release game Atlas (aka, Ark: Survival 2). An ocean-based game of pirates and adventure on the high-seas, I have…
