We made it to 2021! And I’ve got a lot of work to do! Reviews I have finally finished Shogun, though I had hoped to do it before the new year, it just didn’t turn out that way. In any case, the review will be this week. I also plan to post a review, probablyContinue reading “Updates: 1-02-2021”

Frostgrave Sessions pt 3
Here is the final part in my home-brewed solo campaign of Frostgrave. Some other solo games took my attention, and as the release of Frostgrave’s official solo rules loomed, I decided to shelve mine for the time. Final session of Frostgrave, Feb 2019. Session Report Due to a canceled game session, I had some timeContinue reading “Frostgrave Sessions pt 3”
Frostgrave Sessions pt 2
We continue our low-budget campaign, this time borrowing pieces from a board game, Descent 2nd Edition. I also continue to tweak my home-brewed solo rules. The session from Jan 2019: Back to the frozen city! There were some further updates from last game. I decided to give the magic weapon I found to my wizardContinue reading “Frostgrave Sessions pt 2”
Frostgrave Sessions pt 1
It’s winter (for some of us), and though it’s not snowing, I thought I’d share some Frostgrave session reports. Frostgrave is a skirmish tabletop miniatures game, or specifically, the rules for one, and the second edition came out this year. You can play with any miniatures you own and even your own terrain. Though overContinue reading “Frostgrave Sessions pt 1”
Updates: 12-10-2020
It’s the busy season, despite the pandemic. I have a few things to give updates on, the first being the review schedule this month. Reviews for December I normally post reviews on Friday, usually alternating between books and games. It does take a couple days to write and revise the review, but with a lotContinue reading “Updates: 12-10-2020”
Update: Projects and Reviews
Posts have been light lately; I’ve been very focused on work. And yesterday, I had a bit of website work to do because I upgraded my account and I now have a real domain! There are a few other things I get with the upgrade, but the domain is the biggest. The Dawnless Valley PlaytestContinue reading “Update: Projects and Reviews”
Quick Update
It’s been a busy week, and I don’t have as much prepared as I’d like. Tomorrow will be another double-feature movie review of horror movies. And I recently finished running a play-by-forum game of Symbaroum, so I’ll have an article with my thoughts coming soon for those interested in tabletop RPGs. Next week may beContinue reading “Quick Update”
Session Report: “Kingdom Builder” and “Tokaido”
Kingdom Builder is the 2011 classic from Donald X. Vaccarino, which won the Spiel des Jahres in 2012. Certain people find it too abstract, which I would have agreed with, but something always attracted me to it. I played the iOS version before the 64 bit apocalypse killed it, and found it surprisingly engaging. It’sContinue reading “Session Report: “Kingdom Builder” and “Tokaido””
Update: Upcoming Reviews, Writing, RPG Contest
Just a quick update on some things coming up for October. Movie Reviews I used to write movie reviews several years ago on an MMO website used by my friends and me, usually just short rants/thoughts on horror movies. Now that I have my own website and have been filling it with other reviews, IContinue reading “Update: Upcoming Reviews, Writing, RPG Contest”
Session Report: Kraftwagen and Viticulture
The other day, I was able to play Kraftwagen and Viticulture online using Tabletopia. I’ve played Kraftwagen several times, but only 2-player. The pandemic paused my plans to try it 3-player as my game group hasn’t been able to meet up in months. Kraftwagen is a mid-weight Euro about early car manufacturing by Matthias CramerContinue reading “Session Report: Kraftwagen and Viticulture”
