It seems my experiment with Etsy isn’t working out as well as I had hoped – fundamentally I have not sold pretty much anything as of yet. Perhaps my price point is too high, there is very little interest, I just don’t know what I am doing, or likely, there just isn’t much trust in a new vendor and unreviewed product. The good news is that I have 15 of the squadron plates ready to ship out at a moments notice. The bad news is I have 15 of the squadron plates sitting without an order to be fulfilled. However,…

This Sunday is our next session of Pathfinder, with the group continuing and hopefully finishing the battle in the sinkhole beneath Sandpoint. From there, the adventure continues as the group moves forward with their quest to locate Runeforge. Perhaps the strange riddle they have discovered within the tunnels will point them in a direction, and give some clues.

This last weekend was our scheduled bi-weekly tabletop day, where we routinely play Zombicide, Star Wars Armada, Magic the Gathering or any of a number of other games. Instead, we opted to cancel the games, and instead spend time with our respective Mom’s (or in my case, my wife). As a family, we did end up going to see Infinity War, which wasn’t the wife’s first choice, but the rest of the day was hers to do activities as desired. Overall, it was rather enjoyable, though perhaps the kids were too focused on electronics than on being nice to mom.

Obviously I have missed a post or two recently, as I have been sucked into the world of Conan fairly heavily. The more we play, the more we find details and pieces that are unexpected. Unlike our previous survival game, Ark, this game goes into a lot more detail, especially with regards to the combat mechanics. Most you can just gloss over, but as you get more experienced, the nuances become more apparent. For example, in Ark, you simple walk up and start hitting – location, range, and maneuvering (other than to dodge a dino attack) is pretty irrelevant. In…

As our interest fades on Ark: Survival, we have converted over to the newly released Conan Exiles. Still a survival game, but a much different world. Gone are the dinosaurs, and now there are various tribes that fight against your growth to eventually conquering the world. The interesting challenge is the subject matter, in comparison to our kids, who of course are eager to play. The world of Conan is a rather adult one, and the game holds true to that. Fortunately, much of the problem areas can be tweaked in the server settings, eliminating nudity and some of the…

The last few RPG sessions have been rather successful with the use of my growing collection of 3d printed gaming tiles, and the group is really enjoying the addons. Every game, at least a couple of the players comment about how much it adds to the game, to be able to see the walls and tunnels much clearer, not to mention the small addons and decorations. As a result, I am working on a new batch of tiles and pieces, expanding the current set. Fortunately, my collection is a bit more focused – after having built several rooms, I have…

The group continues to dig into the sinkhole beneath Sandpoint, starting the session off where we ended previously with a combat with a pair of Glabrezu demons. Hampered by the ongoing confusion caused by the fog and environment (a magical lingering effect), the group finally managed to come together and face down the creatures. Damage was brutal, and it was looking bad for the group, but when the paladin activated his Aura of Justice ability the tide shifted quickly. In the following round, both demons were eliminated with massive damage from the group. Exploring the tunnels further, they found the…

This weekend we are continuing the Pathfinder Rise of the Runelords campaign, with the group continuing the fight against the creatures beneath Sandpoint. We ended the last game session mid-combat, so we will need to get that momentum going again. Hopefully in the meantime, the group has come up with a plan, and perhaps a way to deal with the confusion-fog that fills the area.
