• Patreon returns

    I spent some time, and recalibrated my expectations, and Patreon is back. I disabled the site last summer, after I realized that the ask was high, while the benefits were low. As much as I was hopeful that many people would leap at the chance to throw support to the channel, it was not realistic. Instead, I have trimmed down the tiers and rewards to a far more mundane level – either the basic “Free” tier and a $1 “Producer” tier. If you are willing to donate your financial support, not only is it highly appreciated, but it is limited…

  • Rolemaster Unified – Character Sheet

    I still consider it a draft, since it will no doubt continue to evolve as we find additional bugs, or new options come out, but I wanted to post a copy of our custom, home-made character sheet for Rolemaster Unified. Ages ago, I created a similar workbook for Rolemaster Standard System, which really streamlined that game. This format handles almost all of the calculations, and most of the bookkeeping, both of which really drag the game and character creation to a crawl. Way back then, we built characters manually, and even knowing the system, it was a long multi-day process.…

  • Rolemaster Unified

    We are preparing to launch our next major campaign, using the Rolemaster Unified system, starting this next week Wednesday, May 13. Currently, the plan is to continue with the Wednesday night schedule, but due to some life changes, we may have to shift the game – we will make that announcement when it is confirmed. In the meantime, join us each Wednesday for the adventures of the group. Unlike prior campaigns, this will be a home-grown and custom storyline – I have no prewritten modules that I am using. Events will no doubt be inspired by my larger collection, and…

  • Kingmaker

    We have a new session of our bi-weekly Kingmaker campaign this week, as the group continues to explore the ancient crypt they discovered, while investigating the disappearance of Varnhold. Located deep in the territory of a long dead Cyclops empire, they crossed a vast gravesite before entering into the wilderness of the mountains, and eventually finding the crypt near a waterfall. Once inside, they have faced a couple guardians, set to the protect the contents, but have continued to push forward. https://youtu.be/XwzrpnoH6u4

  • Off-Schedule Legion

    We ended up being a bit behind schedule this week with our Star Wars Legion battle report. Originally, this was planned to be recorded on April 20, but scheduling challenges pushed it back to April 21. Then AMG decided to announce brand new changes in rules and points to the game earlier in the day, which caused both forces to be restructured. In the end, we did end up playing a game and recording the session on April 21, though it was with only basic understanding of the new rules. For this battle, we are highlighting Grand Admiral Thrawn for…

  • The Enemy Within (Conclusion)

    Its the end of an epic, with the exciting conclusion of our long running Enemy Within campaign for Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay. We started this campaign way back in 2021, and have been holding it regularly most weeks since then, counting up to 155 episodes and about 545 hours of gaming content goodness. From the earliest steps, when the group formed at a coaching inn north of Altdorf, to the final climactic battle in the palace of Emperor Karl Franz, their journey has taken them across the lands. More than a few threats have been defeated, and more than a few…

  • Hondo Ohnaka

    Managed to grab the new Weequay Pirates expansion for Star Wars Legion on Friday, and spent Saturday evening assembling the squad. This set comes with 10 figures, including your choice of either Hondo Ohnaka or a generic Weequay squad leader – but since I have the early release copy of Hondo, I ended up with the generic captain and a total of 11 models. Unfortunately, a couple of the models are duplicated – one design has 3 copies, another design as 2 copies, so there is really only about 5 or 6 unique sculpts. This is still plenty for some…

  • Warhammer FRP – The Enemy Within

    Its the beginning of the end for the long-running Enemy Within campaign, as the final preparations before the return of Ghal Maraz to the Emperor occur. The group is back in Altdorf, secure in the palace, while most of the countryside pack into Altdorf for protection from the growing choas threat of goblinoids, beastmen, and worse in the countryside. Most of the states of the Empire are either in active rebellion, or securing their borders for the ongoing conflict. And the group is convinced at every turn that plots and conspiracies abound, reinforced by what rumors or hints they have…
