Hoth Updates
Continuing the effort to craft a terrain board with a Hoth theme, and so far, the hills and rocks seem to be working well. I settled on a recipe for the grout mixture, which makes it fairly easy to mold. I suspect due to the filler material I add it causes the drying time to…

Schedule Shifts
Going to be a bit of disruption in our regular gaming schedule over the next week or two, due to Band Camp commitments with several of our players. As such, the Carrion Crown campaign is being postponed this weekend, and the Enemy Within campaign next week will be similarly delayed. In place of those streams,…

Battle of Hoth
I have gotten it in my head to craft a modular terrain board for Star Wars Legion (and potentially other games) and have settled on a rolling hillside based on Hoth terrain. To this end, I have been studying various YouTube options, and have acquired a bit of foam and supplies. The design is to…

I of course had to acquire a set and have been working…

Star Wars X-Wing
Its been many years, but we finally managed to get together for a round of Star Wars X-Wing, using the latest version of the rules. As usual, we opted for an overly complex mission plan, with a 4v4 battle between 4 players – 2x Rebels, 1 Scum, and 1 Empire. Add to this our general…
