- This looks so fun. I love the colorful minis of this era of warfare.
A little bit of DBA
More Medieval HOTT
Honestly, though, I clicked on it because a) I didn't know what DBA stood for, and b) DBA was the short-hand for a band I like - one I saw live a lot right before I moved to Japan - Dirt Bike Annie.
- Can you backstab a shark? Heh, no. Or double yes, according to someone who commented on my comment!
I Need a Ruling
Fun stuff. Don't try this in my DF game, you'll regret it. And I will really, really laugh.
- A short look at initiative in D&D versions:

Das Schwarze Auge is another game that I'm interested in knowing more about. Sounds like they had fun playing it:
Playing Das Schwarze Auge after 28 years
- I really liked the Elric story that took place in Nadsokor. I assume that story is where ward-pact demons - a tough monster in Wizard's Crown - came from.
I wish I knew who borrowed my copy of "Stealer of Souls," though. It's been gone for a couple years and I don't want to replace it. Or replace my copy of Shadow Blizzard, either, not that we're talking about Pehov books. But yeah, guys, give me my books back.
- Not gaming, but if you're interested in warfare theory you might like this:
AN IRREGULAR UPGRADE TO OPERATIONAL DESIGN
- The weather is getting nice, and we've been getting vaccinated (some of us) - a mix of pre-existing conditions and jobs that are prioritized for distribution. So maybe we're looking at an outdoor, in-person game sometime soon. If not DF, then something else. I think playing online by default might be the new thing, though - it's just so much easier for our guys who live 1-2 hour one-way drives away from game.

ReplyDeleteThat and as you iron out the kinks, it might just become even easier, all your minis are available at a moment's notice once you have assets for them. Though it does leave something behind at the table, the miniature fondlers in your group might feel a certain lacking.
Thanks for including my blog post about playing Das Schwarze Auge in your Friday link list.
ReplyDeleteI plan to try some old DSA adventures with my kids and write about it on my blog.
Hordes of the Things is a great, abstract Fantasy game that would be suitable for playing out mass battles in a RPG context. Have you ever tried it?
I didn’t know Dirt Bike Annie. I like their energy.
Have a nice Sunday!
Cheers,
