Peak X-Wing

Posted by Jeff Hiatt on Monday, November 4, 2024, In : X-wing 

I look back at this picture, and for me, it represents the peak of my X-Wing experiences. This was right before the game transitioned to its second edition, and as you can see, I was fully immersed in it. The event was called "40,000 Credits," and it was a high-energy, imaginative scenario centered around a crash site in an asteroid field. The goal? Navigate through the field, avoid intense Imperial and Rebel skirmishes, and secure as much loot as possible over six rounds.

Diving into the Terminator Genisys Miniatures Game + A Six-Player Showdown at KublaCon

Posted by Jeff Hiatt on Wednesday, October 30, 2024, In : Miniatures 

The Terminator Genisys Miniatures Game captures the desperate struggle between Skynet’s machines and the Human Resistance, with streamlined rules that make it easy to pick up and play.

39 Days to go…..

Posted by Jeff Hiatt on Monday, April 17, 2017, In : X-wing 

Been trying to get in a little work here and there for the KC 2017 Event. The past weekend was one of great progress. I started to get into a groove on a bunch of stuff. It got to kind of a critical mass where the momentum of it start to take over.

Quite a bit of progress happened on the Customs Frigate over the weekend. I got the command section nearly completed. However the thing that is going to be the challenge is going to be the structural portion of it. I ran a single spar through it ...

10 Days and a wake up…..

Posted by Jeff Hiatt on Monday, May 16, 2016, In : X-wing 

So I had to cancel my playtest over the weekend due to lack of people. Was not a huge issue. I spent Friday night cleaning and putting away all of the things that I do not need.

One of the other things that came up on Friday was that I got my table assignment for KublaCon. I am at table 28 in the Regency Ballroom.


I didn’t get too much time to do much else this weekend.
