  • Zombicide – Quest 9 completed

    As planned, we tackled Quest 9 (“The Hellhole”) of Zombicide: Black Plague over the weekend. And as before, we started off rough, and then restarted – in this case, the group opened the first door directly into an Abomination. Without any gear or dragon bile, we all agreed to reset and restart. The second attempt…

  • Zombicide on YouTube

    As promised (threatened), I have uploaded the latest Zombicide: Black Plague play thru to YouTube. Two hours of excitement and enjoyment of the group against the oncoming Zombie hordes. No doubt we made a few rules errors in the game, but it was all fun, so no big deal to us. If you spot any…

  • Return to podcasts

    Its been a while now since I have published any podcast or video productions at all, let alone related to our gaming activities, and the itch is starting to return. Our current Kingmaker campaign would be an option, but realistically it is just too short of a series to make it worth while. Instead, my…

  • Printing variety

    Had a number of recent projects this week that have been working the printer quite a bit.  Not only am I working on my first printing and painting video, but I have been collecting a number of time lapse videos for other projects.  The wife also tasked me with me with making a Boy Scout…

  • Video content

    Still struggling to find a format for the creation of YouTube content, after numerous challenges and setbacks.  I have found that game play videos are simply too long and involved to make good content – they are rather dull to watch, take forever to edit down, and I don’t have the gear to make them…

  • Shadowrun schedule

    This next weekend is the long awaited and delayed full start to Shadowrun (maybe).  Unfortunately, we have a conflict with the kid’s football schedules.  My son’s football plays on Sunday, which make me unavailable, and one of the players plays on Sunday as well, making his family (and most of our other players) unavailable.  As…

  • Shadowrun – mixed success

    So we kicked off our Shadowrun campaign yesterday, and unfortunately, it did not go quite as smoothly as I had hoped.  In my mind, I envisioned a smooth experience, quick responsiveness, solid audio, and overall a very fun game.  What we actually had was technical difficulties, slow responsiveness, mediocre audio, and a fairly frustrating scenario. …
