Session 8 – Slaad Clown Faces, Part Two

Way behind on these write-ups.  Time is tight, and given the choice between actual gaming and talking about gaming on the internet, I’ll take the former over the latter any day.  What do you think I am, some sort of RPG.net degenerate? When last we left our plucky heroes,...

Medieval Comparison Shot

One of the little challenges for old men like me who game with little men like these 6mm Heroics and Ros figures is finding a way to make it obvious from a distance which little horde is which.  One of my helpful solutions is to base the individual figures...

Last Medieval Footies

Don’t think I mentioned yet that this whole army is built from the fine medieval range of Heroics and Ros.  Today’s offering is the poorly armed rabble called up from every mudhole village, handed a sharp stick, and pointed at the enemy.  What these levies lack in courage and...

More Medieval Troops – Archers to the Fore

The second couple of foot troops for my matched medieval armies is the shooter types.  Almost fifty of the little buggers on each stand makes for a fine visual show.  It might not be enough to blacken the skies, but it looks so much better than an army with...

Shifting Gears – Medieval Army Dismounted Knights

With things slowing down at work, there’s finally enough time to start showing off the second Medieval army for One Hour Wargames. First up, the dismounted knights.  Close ranked, heavily armed and armored, well drilled shock troops....

Medieval Update

Completing a full set of terrain and matched armies for use with OHW is the big goal for 2015.  So far the terrain is about half done, and the armies are half done.  This weekend, the second army got bumped up a few slots on the all-too-long to-do list....

Session 8 – Slaad Clown Faces, Part One

Finally getting caught up on a backlog of posts.  Just way too many irons in the fires.  Too many fires, too, come to think of it. When last we left our plucky heroes, they were heading north, ten days out of Baldur’s Gate, and still a month away from...

Session 7 – The Journey Begins

In which the party attempts to discover where exactly the Cult of the Dragon is shipping their stolen treasure and what they plan to do with that treasure. Our plucky heroes are heading north amidst a small caravan led by an experienced dwarven wagon driver. That is, the caravan boss...

Session 6 – Missed Opportunity

Couldn’t make it to this session.  It’s been a busy few weeks, and these write-ups are getting way behind.  All I can tell you is that the party fought an ogre, and joined a north bound caravan containing a dozen wagons including five cultist wagons hauling a small treasure...

Linear Bust

Finally got around to pulling the caulk based streams and rivers out of the box where they have languished the last few months. They tore. Big time. Not quite sure what went wrong.  Either the caulk was too thin, or you’re not supposed to try to separate the caulk...
