Fistful of Lead Fantasy playtest

 We had a great remote game Thursday with the upcoming Fistful of Lead Fantasy.

Catch out video AAR here!

The Revolution will be televised.

I just posted our second remote game on YouTube here. This time the Battle of Casa Grande.

Stay on Target!

Is it August already?

I'm one of the lucky people who 1) still have a job and 2) have be able to do it since April.

I've also not gamed in person since April. We've had to postpone vacations, conventions and family gatherings. Yes, it sucks, but also the right thing to do.

While on the subject, one of my favorite conventions, RECRUITs is cancelled. We're trying to figure out a way to do it virtually. Almost as important, Wiley Wargame Weekend is most certainly off too. Right now, I couldn't rent the space if I wanted to. Groups that large are prohibited and just plain dumb at this point. Packing a room with aged, out of shape wargamers is a recipe for disaster. If anyone got sick or worse for my vanity convention, I don't think I could live with myself.

However, all that extra time has allowed me to work on writing new rules. The first book of the Fantasy series, Might and Melee is almost completely written. This will be our first full color book. Right behind it are the 2 sister books on Magic and Dungeon crawling. I've also dabbling with other projects like a pulp fighter game based off Starfighters and two giant robot games. And a good amount of painting.

Playing online D&D with my buddies has maintained my sanity and allowed me to play more than I have since I was 13. I've also had a lot of quality family time. Family boardgame night is back on!

So, that's kinda the state of things. Stay safe.

And now some Paraguayans!

More Perry Triple alliance miniatures. These went much faster than the Argentinians with all their piping. But then I got to the red.white and blue stripes and rosette on their shakos. Luck for me, I read they were hand painted, so I didn't feel bad about mine being a bit off.

One more Para unit to paint and then ordering some cavalry for a change.

More Argentinians

This time in the Algerian surplus uniforms.

Look at me! I posted something!

Fortunately I've been busy working at home. Some people don't have that luxury. Unfortunately that means I haven't got alot else done.
I took some time off and had a staycation and finally got to work on these lovely Perry War of the Triple Alliance Argentinian troops. The way they are based was inspired by a thread of Lead Adventure Forum for a retreat from Moscow game.
This will work great for a variety of games including Bigger Battles.

Now avaiable!

Rulebooks and Custom Cards now available on the Wiley Games site.
