AAR: La Maisontaal, Now With 33% More Evil!
I like good scenarios. While I’ll happily sit down with friends and play a game using whatever sextet of standard setups a ruleset provides, in my heart I want more. After a few monthly games of KOW with the rulebook scenarios, a 3 player game necessitated something special. As luck would have it, I had ... Read more
AAR- The Imprudent Kidnappers: A Song of Blades and Heroes Battle Report
A recent Song of Blades and Heroes game with my son became an impromptu scenario creation session when he presented me with a table full of forest with a river and bridge on one side. On the spot I made up scenario- The Imprudent Kidnappers -which I recommend briefly reading over to understand what follows ... Read more
AAR- Mech Attack- Trying a BIG game!
Tim and I met for a game of Mech Attack last month. We decided to attempt our biggest game of Mech Attack yet. Three 60 point sections on each side. As in the past for 10mm Mech Attack we used our collection of rebased Mechwarrior Clix. I was on the south side with the Grey ... Read more
AAR- Kings of War
A brief gallery of last month’s Kings of War Battle between my Chaos forces and Tim’s Barsoomians. I rarely get to bring out my entire Chaos army, so it was a real treat. Ised the Varangur list that has analogues for almost my entire collection. Khador Warjacks (run as trolls) and Battlemasters Chaos warriors facing ... Read more

This was the first year in which we had a full signup and an equally long waiting list. Every player on the signup and ... Read more

AAR- Marvel Crisis Protocol- Battle in the Subway
Michael and I recently got together to play Marvel Crisis Protocol. We set up a cool board using my new Black Site Studios Subway station. His evil Cabal force tried to destroy the city, while my small group of Avengers attempted to save the day. His force consisted of Ultron, Venom, Crossbones, Doc Oc, and ... Read more
AAR/Impressions- Marvel Crisis Protocol
Last night, I joined a group of regulars at Oak Lawn Comics for their inaugural weekly Marvel Crisis Protocol night. The game is usually played on a 3×3 board, so we set up a sprawling abandoned military installation on a 6×4 table, and played 2 separate games on each half. Brian and I played the ... Read more
Old School DungeonCrawl: Advanced Heroquest
Tim, Terrence, Mattias and I dipped into the past last week with a try at the GW classic Advanced Heroquest. That none of us have Advanced Heroquest proved to be no barrier at all. PDF’s of the rules are readily available and we already have plenty of figures, dice and a dry-erasable mat (to use ... Read more
