I have a long history with the Sci-Fi RPG Traveller. Back around 1980 (give or take a year or two) I owned a bunch of the original little black books, and spent many hours creating worlds and fleets of starships with them. I tracked down everything I could find about the Third Imperium and its

Back in December I caught up on posting what terrain builds I’d been up to for the previous few months, and since then my crafting efforts have slowed to a little bit of mini painting. No, I haven’t burnt out or lost my enthusiasm; it’s just that a) my printer and main workspace are in
A few months back I built some modular castle/wall parts based on a series of videos from a relatively new YouTube channel called RP Archive.

I’ve become mildly fascinated lately with watching videos of folks crafting extensive custom gaming environments – dungeon tiles, landscapes, fancy gaming tables, and the like. I see a lot that I’d really like to try, but for every single project I look at I also see limitations in layout, re-use, practicality, and visibility. It’s all

I mentioned a while back about a visit to a place south of Dover called Born to Game. Its gaming selection was Warhammer-, Pathfinder-, and card-game- heavy – none of which I’m presently into – and it was also a comic shop with a pretty good selection. (Sadly, I weaned myself off of regular comic
