Episode 7 of our Legion games is now live on YouTube, for any viewers interested. I have to apologize in advance for this game, this particular combination of players has a bad habit of very long turns and slow decision making. As a result, our typical 3–4-hour game time routinely runs 6+ hours. In this case, we did not have time to complete the game, and when we ran out of time, the results were too uncertain. As a result, I have discounted the game in our ongoing records, and had to mark the game as a tie. Typically, this…

As promised, I had been planning to do something to celebrate our 100-subscriber milestone and have settled on simply opening up our Discord server for anyone interested. We use it currently for gaming news, schedules, and for some of the live conversation during our gaming sessions. For the most part, I expect it will only be a way for the community to grow, and perhaps provide further feedback on our games and efforts. Consider this an experiment – I am a bit nervous making the server public since it may require some time to administrate. If the user base becomes…

Not much to say today, except that I did manage to reach the 100-subscriber mark on Sunday. Since then, the number of followers has continued to grow, which is great and welcome. I enjoy all the feedback being posted on the videos and have corrected a few rules interpretations that we are doing wrong. More videos are incoming, we have the next two sessions recorded and published already, pending their schedule. At this point, I am fairly reliably hitting one per week, released on Friday afternoon at 5 PM EST. And with a few future episodes banked, it relieves the…

Episode 6 of our ongoing Star Wars: Legion Battle reports should now be posted and live on YouTube. This is a Breakthru battle between Republic and Rebel forces, set during Limited Visibility, and using Long March deployment. George was our Republic player, using a slightly adjusted Rex force focused on rapid deployment. His units managed to cover quite a bit of ground before the snowstorm cleared and hold a commanding position near the center. Andy was our Rebel player, playing a heavy-fur army with multiple units of Wookies and some Tauntauns. The Tauntauns in particular were fearsome, racing forward and…

The slow march of subscriber growth continues on, and I am happy to say that due to our recent Legion content, the channel is starting to grow more rapidly. On average, we have added 1-2 followers per day, which isn’t quite viral, but certainly very encouraging. We are even rapidly approaching my first personal milestone, with 100 subscribers – tentatively this weekend. Of course, 100 subscribers is not a big number these days, with channels pulling in thousands or millions of followers. But for a small gaming group channel, and a one-man production team, it isn’t too bad. For reference,…

After a short break, we had another session of the Carrion Crown campaign, with the group continuing thru the Shudderwood. As partially expected, the group was highly resistant to the concept of running when faced with overwhelming odds, so stalled out a bit with a horde of werewolves in the forest. As a result, more than a few of the group may not be surviving. For all the details, you can view the game session on YouTube. YouTube This session also brought to a conclusion our prior give-away, of a pair of figures of the Beast of Lepidstadt, both a…

Episode 5 of the Legion battle reports should be live now, recorded in 4k. The audio problems from the prior session are gone (I remembered to use battery). The battle itself was relatively fast and decisive – it was fairly clear after about turn 3 where the victory was going. But it was a fun session regardless, and a useful chance to train another player on how to play the game. I do suspect that now that everyone has learned the game, future games are going to become much more competitive, and my win/loss record will quickly suffer. YouTube

This weekend is our next session of the Carrion Crown, with the group recently level’ed to level 7. The group has mostly resolved the issues faced at Ascanor Lodge and are now taking on the next stage of their journeys into the Shudderwood. As usual, the game will be streamed live, and we welcome any potential viewers. We ended up having to cancel the prior session, so most of the group is eager to continue the storyline. As a reminder, we have an active give-away for miniatures used in the campaign – simply leave a comment on the prior session…
