  • Send in the Wookies

    Slowly expanding the Star Wars: Legion forces, with additional Rebel Alliance options. This round is the Wookie forces, a combination of the hero piece for Chewbacca, and a set of Wookie Warriors. I am actually rather eager to paint these (though doubtful time will permit), to add to the look of the figures. In the…

  • 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.…

  • 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…

  • Star Wars X-Wing – TIE Reaper

    Continuing my X-Wing collection, with the last of the First Edition/Second Edition combo packs – ships that come with materials for both editions of the game. This one is the TIE Reaper, appearing in Star Wars Rebels, and featuring Director Krennic as a pilot option. Since I mainly fly Rebel, this won’t serve me much,…

  • Star Wars Legion – Fleet Troopers

    Going to be more than a few new miniature sets, thanks to the recent holidays. First up, we have a squad of Fleet Troopers, reinforcements for the Rebels (who desperately need more help). As usual, the models are detailed, but easy to assemble. Compared to my prior experience with Games Workshop, they might not be…

  • Zombicide

    This last Sunday, we managed to play some more Zombicide: Black Plague, and wrapped up missions 6 and most of 7.  Mission 6 was won in the first attempt, despite our lack of game time recently, everyone was working well together and the zombies could not catch up – though it did get a bit…

  • Magic the Gathering results

    We had a fun tournament, with quite a few players for our annual tournament.  Ended up with fewer players than last year, apparently several felt pre-cooking for Thanksgiving was a higher priority, and some of last years players were out of town.  But those that did show up had a lot of fun, and we…
