  • Scatter Terrain

    With our ongoing Pathfinder campaign, the group has been exploring an old castle ruin. Unfortunately, I am finding I do not have much in the way of scatter terrain to decorate with – tables, chairs, rubble, and similar items. I have some basic pieces, but with a recent collection, I have added several new designs…

  • Super Star Destroyer

    I have waited a long time, but I finally managed to get my copy of the Star Wars: Armada scale Super Star Destroyer. A limited edition model, it completely dwarfs anything else on the board. Pictured for scale is the prior giant, the Imperial Star Destroyer, and a tiny little X-Wing squadron, and my backdrop…

  • Star Wars: X-Wing

    Had another chance to play some more X-Wing, or at least host the game (my son and one of our other gamers actually played). The battle was a straightforward 200 vs 200, with Scum vs Empire. On the Empire side, the squadron was Darth Vader and a TIE Advanced, supported by 4 TIE fighters (most…

  • Mining Guild Reinforcements

    To go with the B-Wing yesterday, we also managed to add some reinforcements to the Scum, with the Mining Guild TIE fighter. This was a request from my son, who has taken a liking to the current Scum options, but wanted a decent filler ship compared to the much large Falcon and Slave I. I…

  • Send in the bombers

    Expanding our X-Wing collection with the latest wave, and adding the Rebel B-Wing. This has always been one of my favorite designs, even if the basic concept itself is rather unrealistic. With the new edition, Fantasy Flight has added quite a bit to the model, with a rotating mount point to the stand, folding wings,…

  • Star Wars: Legion

    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…

  • Star Wars: X-Wing

    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…
