I picked up a random mini a few years back. Not even sure I bought it specifically. It may have been a random part included in a larger deal for someone's old stuff. Rummaging through my lead pile over Thanksgiving weekend I find this guy and think that he looks a bit Santa-ish. Thus, the... Continue Reading →
I recently picked up a used copy of Stuffed Fables from The End Game in Charlottesville. I've wanted the game for a while now but couldn't justify the $70 price tag. The End Game has it on sale with their used games for half-price. That's more like my price range. First things first, this game... Continue Reading →
Now that's a boring title. This post has been sitting in draft for a while now. No better title has emerged. Fire and forget! There was a lot of other great stuff at Call to Arms. The vendors were good, though the Dragon's Hoard was MIA this year. That's fine, I just visited them at... Continue Reading →
This AAR is delayed a bit from the event. Life got a bit busy. The convention was great as always. A little less attended than the February Muster, but that is the usual. Those games that did happen were full with players at every available game. Makes me wonder if the lack of attendance may... Continue Reading →
For anyone in Virginia, Maryland, or North Carolina there is a great gaming convention that takes place in Williamsburg, Va. Or, to be honest, there is a great group of gamers who put on 2-3 conventions every year. The Old Dominion Military Society is the core group that puts on these conventions, though there are...

Mostly ready for the Call to Arms convention in October. The 7TV set is ready, just a little dressing left to do. The casts are ready and know their roles. What's the story? What the scenario? You've no doubt heard about the really bad, no good, awful idea of raiding Area-51. Why risk getting killed... Continue Reading →
OK, you go read the Bystander card for 7TV and tell me what ideas you get. Looks useless, but keep in mind that many of the scenarios are based solely on getting to the objective before the opposing cast. That Block ability... how can you not want a cast designed entirely to deploy and then... Continue Reading →
Two more casts to go! Today, we see aliens! For this cast I am using the Reaper Bones grey aliens. This may cause a problem on the table because they all look alike. It's kind of the point, but it may make it a bit confusing. This alien cast is being lead by the Crackpot... Continue Reading →
A villainous cast to compete against the military from the prior post. 20 point cast (maybe 19...) for a demo game. Plan is to have them allied with another 20 pt cast. Being lead by the Mad Scientist co-star, this cast has a few heavies with 2 Failed Experiments. First time running a Doctor in... Continue Reading →
I realize that I still haven't said what the theme of the game I'm prepping for is going to be. Maybe I'll build the suspense for a little bit, but I can start showing off the casts. The plan is for me to provide the casts. I don't anticipate having players bring their own. This... Continue Reading →
