First the Queen, now this

Played A Wild Venture for the for the first time yesterday with @lukeevison.bsky.social (and then immediately again). And I'm still thinking about it, what an addictive system. The art is also adorable and laced with class politics that begs questions about the structure of this animal society.

With my time at Osprey Games at an end, I'm reflecting on my achievements. Among which is making @wyrdscience.bsky.social honk.

Caveat, haven't played it & it's not out till Sept so take all this with a pinch of sand but when a press release lands in the inbox & elicits a loud honking noise then I'm at least minded to give it a shout &, fair play, Crab Rage! just managed that www.ospreypublishing.com/uk/crab-rage...

My SPIEL in games, all played with some excellent people. Once I recover from the post-show heap I'll string together some words about them.

Remi Dekker, son of resistance fighter Freddie Oversteegen has this to say about our minis! 😍 I am blown away! Also pic of when we met up recently, he got a special painted one by John Morris. (KS on now www.kickstarter.com/projects/bad...)

Perfect afternoons can take many forms, this one involved a monorail.

It's been a wet autumn but there have been a few beautiful days, so I grabbed the chance to refill my tub of leaf litter basing material 🍂

Do you call that dancing? Cut some capers, man!

Once again, England tries to park the bus 🙄

I reckon Harold and his team might take it this year, he's been having a good season.

#OtD 3 Oct 1937 almost a year after their defeat at Cable St, Mosley's Blackshirts attempted to march through Bermondsey, South London. Met with strong local opposition and barricades in the streets, the march never arrived at its intended destination workingclasshistory.com/podcast/e35-...

Can't win 'em all.

Played a full game of Bonebreakers, and I'm imploring board gamers to check this wargame out. The action combo system is great; leaping around the board, twatting skeletons into crates or down holes. Excited to see how it develops beyond the free quick-start pack: www.patreon.com/posts/170539...

Trying Bonebreaker by Inkfox Games. Quickstart rules and this lovely arena sheet were handed out free at #SpruCon yesterday. There's something really cool here. Feels similar to turn based tactics games like Tactical Breach Wizards. Lots of shoving terrain and enemies to set up action combos.

Now with 30 more minutes of running through corridors full of steam pipes and sparks. (Yes... Hahaha... yes!) youtu.be/BBBP-iqluxw?...

Free miniature storage, that's perfect for skirmish games like #Greathelm or #KillTeam? Eggggg 🥚

After making an A4 #Greathelm board earlier in the summer and I'm doscovering the additional benefits of it as a photo backdrop. Most recently, this Vampire Hunter for The Silver Bayonet.

Primed the Vets years ago and something went wrong, the surface was hydrophobic, literally repelling paint. Rather than strip and re-do I tried a heavy drybrush and thick speedpaint. Not pretty but it was satisfying to get them table ready at last for Chopper Base Open. #StarWarsLegion

Zero Company is fantastic. My main note for the sequel is that when operators get to the maximum bond level, they should kiss.

Pelicans, U-Wings, Valkyries. Transports are some of the coolest ships in sci-fi and Undaunted: Revolution lives up to that. You can pull off some really satisfying turns scooping up and dropping mechs off around the board. Transports are cool.

it’s that time of year again, Rolling Stone released their list of the top 25 content creators, which is actually a test of how old and out of touch you are… the lower your score, the more out of touch i’ve heard of 11 out of 25

A weekend watching *bonk*. #Loxwood

Going even more behind the scenes, here's what my terrible scribbles looked like trying to convey the idea to the animators before they turned them into their beautiful storyboard.

From storyboard to animation, here's a look behind the scenes of stop-motion trailer for our Wild West duelling card game, Rattlesnake, animated @buenosmal. 🎲 Rattlesnake ✏️ Michael Hardacre 🎨 Roland MacDonald Out Now #ospreygames #rattlesnake #boardgames #wildwest

I tell you what, watching someone fail to make their pinhole camera work and then getting to hand them my perfectly crafted doohickey to have a look at the #eclipse, is a rare and perfect satisfaction.

Resurrecting a Netrunner playmate I won a decade ago (☠️) at an X wing tournament. Backing was falling to pieces and it had done a stint as the surface of my hobby desk. A rinse out, a bit of Poundland elastic glue to seal the back, and it seems ready to finally be used for its intended purpose.

With the weather being the way it is, outside the office was starting to match the yellow of the Montana prairie tiles. So I went out with a camera.

Been playing a bunch of Startup format #Netrunner recently. Tried out a standard deck for the first time that was leant to me at a local meet up. I've since been giving it a go on Jnet and didn't realise it was possible to become so tagged. I want the corp to know it was me.
