    I have gotten it in my head to craft a modular terrain board for Star Wars Legion (and potentially other games) and have settled on a rolling hillside based on Hoth terrain. To this end, I have been studying various YouTube options, and have acquired a bit of foam and supplies. The design is to…

    Last week, as a filler, we ended up running a Star Wars: Legion game, which I ended up recording and then posting to YouTube. This apparently has been much more successful than our otherwise regular long-format RPG storylines. Which is fine, and not unexpected given recent trends. As such, I am looking to expand this…

    With our RPG gaming schedule disrupted this week, we ended up with no Extinction Curse and no Enemy Within progress. Still wanting a game, my son and I ended up doing a game of Legion instead, both trying out armies that we were not familiar with. In my case, I had a desire to play…

    Taking on a new big project and attempting to print and build a life-size B1 Battle Droid. This is from a design by Droid Division, and at least from the pictures, it should be rather impressive. Supposedly the final product stands 78 inches tall, so might be a bit imposing as well. Certainly, the full-size…

    June brings new releases for Star Wars: Legion, with the release of the Shadow Collective. This introduces a mercenary faction to the game, which can either be played independently or as various addons to existing forces and has a very strong thematic design. I of course had to acquire a set and have been working…

    In celebration of Star Wars Day, I managed to play another round of X-Wing, this time with just my son. He was flying a revised Scum list, while I had a revised Rebel squadron. Although we understood the game and it progressed much faster, the game only lasted 7 turns until my entire fleet was…

    Its been many years, but we finally managed to get together for a round of Star Wars X-Wing, using the latest version of the rules. As usual, we opted for an overly complex mission plan, with a 4v4 battle between 4 players – 2x Rebels, 1 Scum, and 1 Empire. Add to this our general…

    Another weekend, another round of our Legion Skirmish competition. Admittedly, we are still playing catch up games, having gotten a bit delayed in the scheduling. This upcoming weekend sees our 7th and final games, which will conclude this particular league effort. And free up a bit of time for other efforts. This time was a…
