  • Shadow Collective

    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…

  • Carrion Crown latest

    Another session of the Carrion Crown campaign, and the group finds themselves embroiled in a werewolf murder mystery. Deep in the Shudderwood, the group is staying at Ascanor Lodge, and indications are that a werewolf is on the grounds, killing a new victim each night. Video is now posted on YouTube, and ready for review.…

  • Warmaster Update

    As theorized yesterday, we ran a few test scenarios with combat using our existing Warhammer characters, versus basic threats utilizing basic Rolemaster Arms Law mechanics. The general conclusion from the group (almost all of which had no prior experience) was that the combat was much improved. The flow of the rounds was much smoother, the…

  • Warmaster

    Been pondering a game mechanics change today, specific to our Warhammer FRP campaign. Long ago, we used to play Rolemaster extensively, our group was particularly fond of the more realistic and deadly tone of combat, and the flexibility of the spell systems.

Functionally, Twitch is much more capable and feature full, but there simply is no audience for our gaming materials and I don’t post actual video games. As such, with all…

  • The Dare results

    As planned, our Call of Cthulhu one-shot, The Dare, was able to be held on Saturday. By this point, the first two parts of the session should be available on YouTube, if anyone has any interest in the experience. Unfortunately, the start time was a bit delayed, but everyone had a lot of fun, and…

  • Game Table Enhancement

    A project this week was to build an enhancement to our gaming table setup, specifically to add LED lights along the edge. In prior games, the screen we use is rather difficult to see due to glare from the lights. If we turn off the lights however, the players can’t read character sheets. This was…

  • The Dare cast

    The scheduling for games is a bit disrupted this week due to several conflicts in calendars. No Warhammer FRP game this evening or next week, and our regular Pathfinder game this Sunday. However, in its place, we will be holding a one-shot for Call of Cthulhu, using the scenario, The Dare. The setting is Halloween…
