    Its the end of a long week, and we have a big snow storm supposedly coming in this evening.  Initially, the prediction was for 8+ inches of snow on top of a layer of ice – that has since been reduced to only a few inches.  Of course that doesn’t stop the locals from panic,…

    Held our first GURPs Warhammer session yesterday, focusing on character generation and teaching the new players how to operate in the GURPs mechanics.  Overall, I consider it a success – the Warhammer setting converts readily to the GURPs system without much difficulty and the players seemed happy with their options.  There was a bit of…

    Holidays are wrapping up, and it is back to work next week.  Scheduling wise, I am preparing to start the GURPs Warhammer campaign next week, character guidelines and details are finished, and just need confirmation from a couple of the players.  Pathfinder is back in session the week after, as the group continues their assault…

    Had some time over the last week to finally do some more painting, and managed to get half of the zombie runners painted up.  Fortunately, they were all very basic, only a few colors, and all identical, so it didn’t take that much time to complete.  I continue to struggle a bit without glasses, which…

    Similar to my Nextcloud difficulties, I have also been having difficulties with our custom private Ark servers since the release of Aberration. The original servers with The Island and Scorched Earth are still working fine, but I wanted to add an Aberration server as well.

    So I got distracted this week, and with a shorter than normal travel schedule, I ended up not working on the planned zombie horde.  Instead, I have been spending many hours working on an automated GURPs character sheet, in preparation for my January GURPs Warhammer campaign.  Will try to work on the zombies next week,…

    Been pondering my options for a new campaign for the new year, something to replace our existing Hero System Champions campaign (which has faltered and stalled out with the holidays), and have come up with an interest in a Warhammer Fantasy world setting.  However, the current version of Warhammer Fantasy is rather out of date…

    With my travel this week, I have the next set of Zombicide zombies to paint ready to go.  This time, I am starting with a zombie-green base coat, which may make the process a little faster.  The challenge however is that the set is 14 identical zombies.  Although they will have some variety, I am…
