Star Wars: Legion
—
by
Small resurgence of Star Wars recently, first with X-Wing, and now with the opportunity to play some Legion. The terrain was rather limited (not sure where my hills and trees are, or if I still have them), but the game mat and the 3d-printed Turbolaser tower worked well, along with the game’s included barricades. As…

It has been a long time, but we finally had an opportunity to jump back into the cockpit and play some more X-Wing second edition this last Sunday. Joining us for the game where my sons, George and Ben, and their friends Carter and Craig. With five players, I quickly whipped up some multiplayer rules…

A bit short for a stormtrooper
A second Father’s Day acquisition, the family supplied me with the Princess Leia mini for Star Wars: Legion. This is good, since the collection has been heavily favoring the Empire recently and the Rebels really needed some reinforcements. Leia is of course a welcome addition, though admittedly the model is not the best. The face…

This year, due to…

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…
