This week we have a fairly short battle between a Tempest Force battle force against the Ewoks of Bright Tree. Carter is playing the Empire, with George playing the Rebels. Both battle forces are new for our group, this is the first time either composition has been used. For Tempest Force, it is really just a trimmed down Empire, so fairly straightforward, but the Ewoks are an entirely new strategy and tactic. As usual, the report will be available on Friday, but if you wish an early viewing (and want to help support the channel), consider Joining the channel. For…

A successful launch of the new campaign, with all 6 players available for a long Saturday session. As normal, the session was recorded, and will be available this coming Friday for viewers. Subscribe to the YouTube channel for notifications and awareness of releases, and to help support us. We started the campaign using the old standby of “you meet in a bar”, but in this case, I had pre-seeded the group with bits of information. Each was at the location due to their own missions and goals, rather than semi-randomly all taking on the same. A bit of challenge later,…

Our next campaign is kicked off, likely this coming weekend (video available the following week). This is our combination Traveller/Shadowrun campaign, with the group experiencing the Trojan Reach with the Pirates of Drinax campaign. Character generation is already done, and it was a lot of fun, I think the group agrees that this was probably the best session 0 that we have had in a long time (video available). In our first session, the group will be introduced to their benefactor, and some of the major players, as well as start their first “training” mission. From there, the universe is…

My second set of recently painted terrain is the Crashed X-Wing set, a more recent release. The model was painted similarly, with hand-painting on the X-Wing and R2 droid using base paints, then highlighted with contrasts. My home made dark wash ties all the pieces together again, working well for the size of the model. The pilot was previously painted, using a collection of contrast paints alone. Not entirely happy with the face (it ended up with excessive shadowing), but it does really stand out against the rest of the terrain.

Haven’t posted in a few days, thanks to a busy work schedule, editing schedule, and US holidays. With our most recent battle report, we managed to show off our recently painted terrain – I have been spending some evenings catching up on the old sets and pieces so that we can actually use them in games. First up is the Wrecked AT-ST set, a single solid piece, and a nice common terrain piece for gaming. Stones are a combination of sandy yellow, red and brown washes, and a heavy grey drybrush. The soil is a layer of contrast paint, and…

The latest expansion to the Star Wars Legion game came out on Friday, with the Inquisitors, Fifth Brother and Seventh Sister. As is typical, I acquired a set of the models, and set about prepping them for use in our games. Fortunately, both figures have a fairly basic paint scheme, so this did not really take very long with contrast paints – they were assembled on Friday, painted on Saturday, ready for gaming on Sunday. We will be filming new battle reports in the next few weeks, and will no doubt include the operatives, to try out their abilities. Personally,…
