I wasn't really playing rpg's and all when I was a kid, so I keep running into a problem of thinking I have some novel idea, but it was beaten to death 10x over when I was still in diapers.

Well, in-between filling and painting, I've been working hard this weekend to lay out and do the maps for the beta release of my solo, narrative wargaming rules.

If you fancy a read, you can grab the PDF at my Itch page below for free. Constructive comments and feedback on the rules, layout, grammar, spelling, and all that, as always, gratefully accepted.

Next up we played Bellum Stellas by the youngest Protospieler of the weekend, Silas Hamilton, played with Kevin Levy and Mark Hamilton. While an old-style grognard #wargame was not really my thing these days, this ambitious game harkened back to that. A remarkably mature design for such a young guy, and Silas absorbed our advice like a sponge. It was great seeing his design evolve over the weekend.

I publish #TTRPG material, including Pulp Egypt, Heroes of Rura-Tonga, The Greydeep Marches, and a few solo adventures, at DriveThruRPG. I’ve also released some miniature #Wargame designs, notably Panzer Kids and my recently released Skirmish Kids, over at Wargame Vault.

I also occasionally share bits of my life in central Virginia, often photos of the flora and fauna around our home. We also have cats, so, naturally, I share some of their antics from time to time. 3/3

This trash bashed boat model is looking pretty damn cute after the primer coat. So excited to paint this thing.

This is for the table top war game Scabz. You get a sardine tin or two and then use that as the base for a trash/scratch built model of a boat in whatever style you like. Quite like how my first stab at this is coming along.
