On Friday of last week, we managed to record our planned oversized Star Wars Legion battle report – two armies of 800 points each, on two different sides, for a total of 3200 points of figures. The battle results were impressive, both sides fought hard and long for victory. Without any spoilers, the victory was our closest to date, with only a few points separating the winners from the losers. The actual event was an exercise in endurance. We started at 6:30 PM, and wrapped up at approximately 4:30 AM the following morning, making it a 10-hour effort. After editing,…

The next of our ongoing Legion battles – this time sees my return to my Separatist army, with Count Dooku and Cad Bane leading the forces. I am playing against the Empire, running General Veers and Commander Krennic, and four full squads of Death Troopers. Mission selection is Intercept the Transmissions, in a Long March layout. Video publishes on schedule on Friday, but is available now for Patreon supporters – Halfling13 Patreon

Patreon has just released the option for a free trial membership. Not sure how motivational that would be, but I have enabled it for a couple of our tiers. Ultimately, it is really just showing support for the channel, group and content, but you can view our videos early for a bit. This also would unlock our small STL library, in case you wish to print any of our designs. Perhaps this will jump-start Patreon, perhaps not. But doesn’t hurt to add the option. Patreon

Although we have had a bit of disruption in our RPG content over the month of May, mainly due to multiple scheduling conflicts, the channel continues to grow. Definitely not fast, never really expected it to, but slow and steady. Looking back at our older videos, even from early this year or last year, we have improved a lot in the quality and consistency. The stories are passable, the GM’ing is basic, but the format is consistent and steady. In the near future, we will be wrapping up the Extinction Curse storyline (likely only a few more episodes), and the…

In my constant effort to improve and change, I am working on revising the Legion battle report thumbnails again. I had watched a video which claimed that less text is better, and started thinking that my current format is rather busy and jumbled. After polling briefly our Discord group, settled on an easier format, with a screen shot of the game itself under some basic text, and a highlight of the characters of the battle. This required a bit of reworking of the graphics files, but now i have an updated template. I have updated the thumbnails for episodes 042…

Our upcoming Episode 042 sees the first battle report for our group with Commander Cody, joined by Obi-wan Kenobi taking on a collection of Rebel heroes (Cassian Andor, K-2SO, Jyn Erso, and Din Djarin). The mission is a Recover the Supplies battle, with a Long March deployment. Unfortunately, the initial setup lead to an unexpected game, but it gave both players the opportunity to experiment with a few alternative tactics.

In my video prep for our upcoming 1600 point 2v2 Legion battle, I mocked up a graphic summarizing the various rules and adjustments. Basic premise is that each army is independent, but allied. Enemies are shared, but your respective abilities can only affect your own specific forces. If you have any thoughts, let me know – I am eager for feedback to improve before the game, or as a learning experience after the game. The game itself is scheduled for Friday, May 26, with the video hopefully going live by June 9. Patreon supporters can comment in Discord, or view…

We are gearing up for a special edition Star Wars Legion battle-report, a player requested “mega-battle”. Specifically, this is a 2v2 battle, with 2 players on each side, instead of a simple 1600 pt battle force with 2 total players. Currently, the factions are 2x Separatists vs a combined Empire and Shadow Collective team – 800 points for each of 4 players. We are finalizing the house rules for the combination, but it will be played on our usual 3×6 gaming space. I am toying with the idea of a live stream of the battle, but either way it will…
