    Trying an experiment and testing out a YouTube Short video format for our battle reports. Obviously, can’t keep all the detail of the game in only 60 seconds, but I am trying a highly condensed/edited format, with only the most notable game highlights.

    A couple weeks ago I acquired a new wireless microphone set, a Rode Wireless Go II set. Keeping with my minimal budget, this was purchased thru a work reward – I had saved up and earned a number of recognition points, which was then traded in for the microphones. From what I can tell from…

    In the interest of consolidating my ongoing activities, I am planning to discontinue the live streams of our RPG sessions. We will still be gaming, that isnt going anywhere, but the audience has simple never materialized. For a time, we tried Twitch, and then we moved to YouTube live, but the end result was a…

Moving forward, I am setting all of them to go-live on…

Not sure how much I will stick with it, or if I will even like the format, but with the new Swoop Riders for Star Wars Legion, I am giving some time to the effort. My basic plan is to assemble…
