I was gifted a rather ornate and awesome hand crafted, leather bound and aged book by my players (thank you to Thad and Robin) during our last game session and have been trying to come up with a use for it. Initially, the thought had been to write out the spell collection for a character, but I don’t typically get a chance to play. Or I could use it for various campaign notes – but that tends to be hit and miss, and frequently dropped mid-stream. A Warhammer “Book of Grudges” would be good, but I don’t really hold grudges…

The big Eagle Project for my oldest son is complete, at least from the physical delivery. We wrapped up the final steps over the weekend, and then with assistance from the Grandpa, delivered to the sponsor yesterday. Now they are in the hands of the sponsor to find a good home – current plan is for the large box to remain in the church, and the two smaller boxes to go to local elementary schools. There they can live out their intended purpose for at least a year or two (or longer if kept indoors). Final step is for George…

Been brainstorming recently about future campaigns, and various storylines I would be interested in running. This tends to happen whenever the schedule starts to calm down some, and I start to look into additional items to fill the calendar. With the Skirmish league wrapping up, I have that type of opening. Once concept I have toyed with is a science-fiction based setting. Ever since we played Starfinder for a bit, I actually rather liked the setting itself. The game of Starfinder, completely unusable in my mind – far too many inconsistencies in the rules and the leveling mechanic for gear…

As planned, we continued our most recent Carrion Crown campaign this weekend, and as planned, we Twitch streamed the game. Overall, no major issues with that, though as expected the audience was non-existent. Maybe that will pick up, maybe it won’t, not really a big factor since it is more of a curiosity. Following the game, I did some quick trimming, and then uploaded the session to YouTube, as part of the ongoing archive, that should be live now. Generally happy with this new process, isn’t too time consuming, and helps make the YouTube format more consistent. I am noticing…

No pictures yet, but we appear to be finally in the home stretch of George’s Eagle Project for Scouts. This has been a long time coming, and we are eager to be finally finished with the effort. As previously posted, he is conducting a project to produce and install several book libraries, for a local church, to be placed in public spaces at local parks. This will allow families to donate or retrieve books as desired, and provide a community service. To complete this, it requires quite a few hours of construction on the boxes themselves – basically designed as…

So, after quite a few months, I am going to try out moving our RPG livestreams to Twitch, instead of YouTube Live where it is currently. This functionally doesn’t change my workflow or setup, except for the streaming target. However, I am finding that being a (very) small streamer on YouTube, there is likely just no interest or ability to find the content. Twitch is instead designed for exactly this and have a far larger audience. Maybe it will generate some small interest, likely it won’t. But it will be another step in the learning process. The archives will still…

Another weekend, another round of our Legion Skirmish competition. Admittedly, we are still playing catch up games, having gotten a bit delayed in the scheduling. This upcoming weekend sees our 7th and final games, which will conclude this particular league effort. And free up a bit of time for other efforts. This time was a bit different, we both ended up playing the same opposing army, with a force of Empire troops. The enemy army had a fully outfitted AT-ST and a unit of flame snowtroopers, plus a number of other miscellaneous stormtroopers lead by only a Field Commander upgrade…

Haven’t posted for a bit, but our secondar Pathfinder campaign, the Extinction Curse, is still going strong. It has been a bit rough recently, due to a few character deaths, and a handful of scheduling conflicts, but we continue to make it work. At this point, the group is set to potentially wrap up Chapter 4 this weekend, depending on their course of actions. In particular, several of the group find themselves in a moral challenge, faced with giving the villain what they wants, or risking the destruction of the city and the civilians. The party is split, and willing…
