Bolt Action Battle Report, #004
German forces again face off against the British 8th in a new (short) battle report. We introduce Thad to the game, who is taking on the mantle of the Germans, and I attempt to teach the game (poorly), while also filming and managing the British army.

The Enemy Within (Warhammer FRP) 5.41
Our current chapter of the Enemy Within campaign has continued on a for a very long time – primarily due to our short session length. Since we get together every week, we are just about at a full year in the current chapter. Fortunately, most of the action has moved past the city intrigue and…
Bolt Action “Dog Tags”

Microphone challenge

Looking for suggestions and options, since I keep coming up blank. I am looking to redesign and try to improve our current audio setup, for our live-play RPG sessions. What we have is functional, but challenged – some of the players are naturally louder than others or quieter. Originally, our group consisted of 10 players,…
