Legion, game 3
Set up for another round of Star Wars Legion, with my Separatist army (unmodified) going up against a revised Imperial Army. The battlefield is set, and the units deployed, and the forces are ready to start (as soon as we have time enough). On the field, we have a rather symmetrical field of forests (light…

Separatists – the first battle
With my newly painted army, I remembered to take a few pictures of our table and terrain during our first battle. Ended up forgetting to go further after the first couple of turns, but at least I got what I did. The scenario was Recover the Supplies, which really turned into “meatgrinder”, with both sides…

Separatist Army
As posted before, I ended up being inspired to paint up my Separatist Army for the Star Wars: Legion game. After spending time generating and deciding on a 800 pt list, I acquired the necessary models, assembled, primed and ultimately painted the entire set.

Star Wars: Legion

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…

No good to me dead
With the recent Father’s Day, my kids and family helped me expand the slowly growing Star Wars: Legion collection with a few of the heroes and villains. The first one is Boba Fett, feared bounty hunter, and addon for the Empire’s side. The model is nice, though perhaps a bit finicky – there are a…
