Mural's Avengers III: Storm Warning

The final addition to the nursery walls has arrived! (okay, so maybe not the final addition, not just yet)

Who appears to be throwing out lots of blue wool.

Luke! We're going to have company!

X-Wing seems to me like an excellent game. There's just one thing about it, just one tiny niggle, that I can't get my head around.

Pre-painted miniatures.

Don't Cave Me In

And back we plunge into the Dungeons! The missions get tougher as Leofa and myself take on the fiendish cunning of Kraken in Mission 4 of Dwarf King's Quest: "Left Or Right?"

It's a good mission, but seriously, were these titles written on the back of a beermat?

Short Story Shorter

Ah, nuts.

I didn't win the Secret Weapon competition I mentioned last month (hats off to the man who did, it was a great read). The store voucher I got instead will go a long way towards soothing my wounds, bringing various interesting terrain options my way as it does.

Now, I'm not being suckered into trying to keep the chain unbroken or anything - it was tough enough padding out December, in all honesty - but just in case anybody in the entire world is wondering, I thought I'd stick my semi-finalist piece out here. Definitely not for the chain.

No sir.

Remember what Fleetwood Mac said.
That's right. Don't stop thinking about tomorrow.

I wasn't going to break at 34....

So yes, this is an ironic irrelevant post to keep the chain going!

Stay On Target....

Games are getting bigger as, thanks to Amazon, so do the options.

I Got A Gooood Feeling About This...

With a rapidity limited only by the speed of an Amazon courier, our little group has taken to X-Wing. Yesterday afternoon, Kasfunatu (here in bold) was kind enough to put me through my paces.

My pleasure - and if you find yourself with 30mins free over the weekend, I've left it all setup for another bout.

I assume proxies are cool, right?

Without further ado, let's lock those S-foils into attack position!

Frostgrave: Frost Footing

Happy Hogmanay! 

Now we've got the tradition out of the way, let's roll some dice. 

Welcome to 2016's first Woffboot writeup - Frostgrave, not a new system for us, but at least featuring a new player. New systems inbound shortly, though, so stay tuned...

This is General Kasfunatu's first outing in Felstad. He asked me what he'd need, seeing as I was hosting, and I said pen, paper, d20 and luck. Guess which one he brought most of? 

I could only find a couple of d20, my normal dice bag cunningly stored somewhere; but I had one pen and two bits of A4.

That's right, it was paper.
