The Scenic Route: A Walking Dead Campaign- Interlude 1
Excerpt from the diary of an unlikely survivor… I used to move a lot when the world was alive, towns, cities, new countries even, but now that the world’s dead I’ve probably moved even more. Not in the beginning though, no, back then I pretty much holed up in my house hoping it would all ... Read more
The Scenic Route: A Walking Dead Campaign- Chapter 1: Chicago, Overrun
You’ve been holed up in downtown Chicago trying to survive but that all changed when the dead blew through the city like a bad wind. Now you’ve got to keep moving if you want to stay alive; you’ve even been thinking of joining forces with the other survivors instead of going it alone. There’s strength ... Read more
The Scenic Route: A Walking Dead Campaign- Prelude
Excerpt from the diary of an unlikely survivor… My parents used to say there were no monsters under my bed or in my closet. Now there’s no parents and monsters everywhere. What’s left of my home and neighborhood is not even worth mentioning. They also said that time was the greatest resource we had. Now it’s ... Read more
AAR- Walking Dead: All Out War
Tim and I got in a couple of games of The Walking Dead: All Out War. I wanted to get some practice in before our upcoming Halloween campaign starts, and we needed to test out the game’s new campaign rules. We set up a simple city block, and decided to play a standard “recover the ... Read more
AAR- Konflikt ’47 Brits vs Occult Germans.
A few weeks back, Michael and I got together at Greenfire to play a game of Konflikt’47. I didn’t record a play-by-play of the action, but took a good number of pictures so what follows is more of a gallery than an AAR. He brought a German force composed mostly of Wargames Factory Shock Troopers ... Read more

Goin’ Rogueando. (An adventure with Rogue Stars!)
“So, what’s your favorite sci-fi series?” A common question, I would presume, in this hobby. We probably see and hear a lot of this Star Wars mumbo jumbo being dropped all around us, but how far it extends in to the “science” part is rather questionable. What about the good ol’ Trek? Eh, well, it’s ... Read more
AAR/Review- “It’s Gettin’ Cold In Here. So put on all your clothes!” FROSTGRAVE!
“Come hither, companions. Let me regale yet another tale of…” “Oh, grandpa, not ~another~ story of Felstad.” “Shut yer mutton holes ignorant whips, I said a regaling is to be done! A tale of my adventures, for some day you too shall need a shining beacon of wisdom to escape with yer lives!” *Children roll ... Read more

Josh and I played Shadow War last week.We didn’t take extensive notes, but here’s a few pics and a brief overview. Josh provided the nice Necromunda’ish terrain below which is built of Mantic Battlezone pieces. In the background you can see Tim and Michael playing Shadow War also. I’m on the right the foreground with ... Read more
AAR- Exploring 8th Edition 40K
I’ve been a fan of Warhammer 40k for a few years now, and was a very active player in previous editions. I’ve played in a tournament and even made the trek to the MiniWargaming studios in Canada to film some battle reports. So when the new edition was announced, I was thrilled. Age of Sigmar ...
