To get ready for the projects I have planned (and those unplanned) for 2021, I have to clean off the old projects and get that tables cleared. My process for working on hobby tasks tends to have me looking at 3-4 serious projects at a time with many more partially done and probably never getting... Continue Reading →

SYNOPSIS Yeah, everyone waited to the last minute to get their Christmas shopping done. The casts are not likely to go shopping at any old store, though. Why go shopping with the great masses when you can find much better stuff in secret government laboratories? This episode sees a return to the Area 51 set,... Continue Reading →

SYNOPSIS It's Christmas, or close enough to it that every store is decorated, each house is lit, and the halls are mostly decked. In an attempt to spread as much Christmas cheer as possible the casts have all decided to go caroling. This isn't about talent and this isn't about singing skill. It's about exposure...

Two more casts to fill out the Christmas game. Really just an excuse to build casts for the Not a Santas I've painted over the years. Neither of these casts will be a surprise, at least not the figures. They've all been featured in recent posts. But this post will show the cast cards I... Continue Reading →

I have almost finished supporting casts for the four Not a Santas I have painted. Some were easy to assemble, others are still a frantic work in progress. All of them should make great crews to play a few Holiday Themed 7TV games. The problem, as always, is picking the right cast cards for the... Continue Reading →

In an earlier post I mentioned having found Grind, by Privateer Press, for cheap at my local Ollie's. Son2 already owns the game. I've seen/heard Son1 and Son2 play the game and I have no interest in it. But, the figures are slightly worse production quality versions of the big stompy robots from Warmachine and...

In my last post I showed off the Not a Santa for 2020. As a part of a Guild Ball set, specifically the Butchers Team, he came with some other figures. For 7TV, this will become the supporting cast and costars. Considering I spent only $10 for all of these, it was a bargain and... Continue Reading →

For the fourth year in a row, I have painted a Not a Santa. This started years back when I had a Reaper Necromancer miniature that was missing a hand and part of his staff. He just screamed "Angry Santa" and thus he became. The following year I found a similar miniature in my pile... Continue Reading →

As part of the Argonauts KS, Crooked Dice produces a background description and card for a character named Kronos. Unless I'm completely blind, they have not yet made a figure for Kronos. I can't let a little thing like the figure not existing prevent me from playing the character, however. What to do while I... Continue Reading →
