  • Condensed Rise of the Runelords, Chapter 3.3

    After a lengthy editing session, I have managed to distill the latest game session video to a far more reasonable 52 minutes of length, compared to the original 5 hour session.  As is typical, much of the normal gaming session is filled with rules discussions, explanations, and general chatter in the game, and a far…

  • Pathmaster

    A couple years ago, I made a focused effort to combine the Pathfinder setting with the heavily house-ruled versions of Rolemaster that our group likes to play.  The result was a combination we billed as Pathmaster, with a significantly changed character generation system, and combat mechanics, all of which worked decently well with the Pathfinder…

  • Rise of the Runelords, Chapter 3.3 (video)

    Finished the initial edit of the latest game, with the full game video.  Tried a different technique, due to the angle of the camera.  Given its position (and lack of a zoom), there was a lot of surrounding view of the group and activity.  Although its not really an issue, it does tend to be…

  • Rise of the Runelords, Chapter 3.3

    Another successful gaming session with our large group, with the start of the assault on Fort Rannick.  In the last session, the group had arrived to find that the fort had been overrun by a large clan of Ogres.  Working with the last survivor of the Black Arrows ranger troop, who had been managing the…

    Its been a while since I posted a copy of the current characters for our existing Pathfinder Rise of the Runelords campaign, so I wanted to provide an update.  In truth, my previous post may not have survived the original website outage back in January/February, so this may end up being the first such posting.

  • Expanded Armada Fleets

    I continue to slowly expand my Star Wars Armada collection, adding a single set of each of the various ships at a slow but steady pace.  Since I need to outfit both Rebels and Empire, I try to keep both sides roughly equal by adding equivalent ships each time. This most recent adds are the…

  • Video opportunities

    Since I have been attempting to film various activities over the last few weeks, I have started to notice that the interest level and opportunities for filming are actually becoming more common.  It is almost as if having used the process, I am more in tune with it, and are seeing more options.  But more…

  • No Armada this week

    Unfortunately, there is not going to be a new Star Wars Armada battle report this week, my son is off with the Boy Scouts enjoying some river rafting.  Instead, my hope is to work on version 2 of the pencil box, this time with some quality wood (thinking Mahogany).  Still pondering how I would do…
