  • Landspeeder

    Continuing my recent painting, and opted to spend some time on the old landspeeder. Still have several figures to go on and in the vehicle, but it is nice to finally have paint on this particular model. We decided to apply a snow-theme to all the Rebel bases, so eventually this will actually be more…

  • Super Tactical Droid

    A second model I have been working on, and recent acquisition over the holidays, is the recent Super Tactical Droid. The figure was fairly simple to assemble, being just a basic droid, and I opted to paint it in more neutral colors (rather than a special pattern of the named versions). Nothing too fancy here…

  • Painting again

    It has been a while, but with recent gaps in gaming, I am making some more progress on the painting backlog. My son and I are tackling more of the Legion troops, myself with a mix of Rebel and CIS forces, and George working on his Clone army. First up is an unlikely pair of…

  • Wednesday Legion

    Another Wednesday, and a new Star Wars Legion game pitting the Republic Clones against the CIS Droids. Mission selection ended up with a “Intercept the Transmissions”, during “Clear Conditions”, and a “Roll-out” deployment. I was playing my unmodified Droids, while Thad was playing George’s standard Clone force. Terrain was decidedly “fantasy”, utilizing a fair bit…

  • Warfare Wednesday Redo

    After the one-sided battle last week, we have challenged ourselves to repeat the battle, with lessons learned. Per our house standard, the victor (myself with Separatists) have not modified the force, while the loser (Republic) has made some adjustments. With those changes, a bit more time to analyze and consider the battlefield, and (hopefully) a…

  • Legion Results – CIS victory

    As planned, we played our latest round of Star Wars Legion. Not as planned, it turned out to be an overwhelming CIS victory, with the Galactic Republic surrendering midway thru turn 2. I don’t necessarily agree with the “lost cause” nature of the fight at that point, but it was certainly heavily slanted, and highly…

  • Warfare Wednesdays

    With my local group, I have started a series of games on Wednesday, which I am titling as Warfare Wednesdays. These are intended to be exclusively wargames – Legion, Armada, X-Wing, or similar games, able to be played with a small group and not take up multiple sessions. Last week, we played a 400 pt…

  • A whole new space

    Following on my acquisition of the Twilight Imperium mat, I opted to add a new Star Wars: Armada mat, using the same grippiness. This will hopefully minimize the shifting of pieces during the game, and provides an alternative graphic. The mat was purchased thru Break From Reality Games in Seattle, and (unlike the prior one)…
