Recently, I had the pleasure of hosting a Space Weirdos game night for a group of friends interested in learning the game. Space Weirdos is a fast-paced, skirmish-style miniatures game set in a strange, sci-fi universe where players assemble small warbands to fight intense battles in a variety of imaginative environments. The game emphasizes quick, chaotic combat and flexible warband creation, making it accessible for new players while still allowing veterans to dive deep into strategy. With ...

For KublaCon this coming May, I'm deep into prepping my Battle of Scarif recreation from Rogue One. This idea took root last year when I found a massive haul of Star Wars: Legion minis at the flea market, which really drove my focus toward a Star Wars theme. Originally, I’d thought of setting up a pirate game with some Blood and Plunder miniatures that I had purchased, but after finding these minis, it made sense to shift toward a Scarif-themed event. I've previously hosted X-Wing games, bu...

Here is a new scenario that I put together for Space Weirdos. In this scenario, players each lead a team of bounty hunters tracking the bounty through a rugged landscape filled with traps. The objective is to capture (kill) the bounty by the end of turn 6. If the bounty survives, they escape, and all players lose.

Setup

• Board Setup: Use a 3'x3' board with craggy, rugged terrain featuring rocks, cliffs, and obstacles.
• Objective: Captur...

If you are familiar with Frostgrave, Stargrave, or Rangers of Shadowdeep this game will be familiar territory to you.

The premise is that during the Napoleonic wars undead and other magical creatures have appeared on the fringes of the various battles. You are charged with creating a ...

One of the perks of being a board gamer is that I get a lot of little really good tough boxes I don’t use. Sometimes they get used for things around the house. Sometimes I just never take the expansions out of them. But there are times when I get them, and I have nothing to put into them. Then I'm forced to think about throwing them away or something else.

Recently, I got a copy of Dinosaur World. If you're familiar with that game there was a lot of expansions that came with it. It was pre...

Over the last few days, I have been having discussions with some old friends about some of the projects I have been working on recently.  I want to talk a little bit about how I am approaching it and how it seems to be helping me to get these things done.

In the past I have approached painting a figure with the goal of getting it finished and getting super focused on that to the point where it becomes an all or nothing thing. I have been finding that that is not working very well for me.

Another game that I am just about finished painting is Aliens: Another Glorious Day in the Corps by GF9. Initially I was going to give this one a pass, but I changed my mind and ended up pre-ordering it.

I found the minis effortless to put together. The Aliens had a little fit issue with the tails but in the end, it worked out. The Marines went together much easier.

The Aliens were super simple to paint. I primed them with a grey primmer. Then I gave it a coat of Citadel Contrast Wyldwood....

Last January my buddy Wayne and I got a booth for the GK Flea Market at the Mountain View store. (Little did we know that this was going to be the last Flea Market any of us would ever attend there).

We are setting up our table there and as we are doing so, a guy across from us along with his wife are setting up boxes and boxes of GW products. He then puts a sign up saying that everything on the table is free.

I had been interested in getting back into it for a while, so I go an ask him a...
