Star Wars Adventure

Hello Troops,

With the New Year comes getting the cobwebs out and working on past projects.  Please visit my Star Wars RPG Blog and follow along. I recently made a new post and it will follow along past RPG gaming with Steve, Sean and Lydia !

Planet's Doom - Star Wars RPG

Thanks and Enjoy ....

Extend the fighting positions ....

Hello Troops,

You heard the order correctly .... extend the fighting position line to include 3rd squad of 1st platoon, Able company.  The three new stands have just completed 1st platoon.

As previously posted, I have changed up my production scheme to allow my painting to be more effective and time saving.  I am happy to say that my painting hasn't been effected and looks good.   I was able to get 2 colors to the models in one sitting. So I will keep the current SOG for assembling and painting production.

I would have pictures to post but the HOT weather we have had lately is not allowing me to get outside to matte the figures before placing grass and such on the stands.  I promise they are done though !

Next up ...

I have a M10 tank destroyer platoon in the building stage.  Also in the planning stage is an Engineer platoon and a recon platoon.  These will add some fantastic punching power to my glider troops.

It's all coming along.



On other gaming fronts, I have a Star Wars RPG game ready to roll.  The Spirit Nicole's crew has a tough rescue mission ahead of them.  We weren't able to meet Sunday so this will be the mission I had planned for them.  I am gonna get an Afrika game for FOW tonight, to get some ideas for lists for the Guns of August tournament in August.

I also added a building/painting que to the side bar.  Just a little something to show progress of my painting and building for you the reader.

This briefing is over.  Relax, stay cool and sound off through the chain of command if you need anything.

Photos as promised ....

Hello Troops,

Here are some of the photos I promised the last post.  Some are of 3rd squad, 1st platoon of Able Company.  The other photo(s) are of the rat Skaven of Mordheim.  Just to let you know .... Hein, I took your advice and hit the bases with the same color of my basing to help hide the black primer at the feet ;)

I would also like to offer a hello to the new troops. Mistress of Minis, Pnakotic, Galpy, Duck Sauce, Shelexie and Lydia.  I hope you enjoy my random muttering and rambles about our hobby we share.

What is the order of battle General ?  Good question and simple enough.  I have 1st Platoon almost complete ... so 1st squad of 2nd Platoon will be next.  I will have them cleaned up and on popiscle sticks soon.  Black primer is in store of the next course of action.  I need to get moving on them since Guns of August is around the corner and I am looking to possibly entering.  Steve, you need a car pooler ?



I am also GM'ing a Star Wars RPG mission this Sunday.  Check out Planet's Doom to see the weekly antics of the members.  The group (Steve, Lydia and Sean) are getting better at the rules, as well as myself.  It's been fun and great to get back into it .....

I also plan on getting a recon platoon and an antitank platoon for support of the 327th.  Rob over at FTW Games will be getting that business in the near future.

Enjoy the pics, sound off if you need anything.

All in Good time ...

Greetings Troops,

June is here ... and with that the heat and humidity of Virginia is well upon us as well.  Things are slowely getting into a decent pace for the summertime.

My family and I attended the Barenaked Ladies concert the other night and had a blast !  Old favorites and songs from the new album were played.  I have been a fan of theirs for a long long time and was so happy to finally see them in concert.  It was a great night.

The next morning I attended my National Registry of Emergency Technicians Intermediate (Paramedic) practical and passed in the first wave.  It was a long day but I was happy to have that completed.  I have to complete the written portion still.

I finally found my digital camera ! It was MIA for some time till a search party found it ....

With that noted .... I present 2nd squad, 1st platoon of Able company.

Last night I was the GM for a Star Wars RPG game which included Steve, of What Would Patton do? fame, his wife Lydia, of Iron Lydia fame and Sean, of the Kneel B4 Blog fame.  It was the initial character forming and fleshing out of rules but it was fun.  Hit my blog, Planet's Doom for the in game read coming soon.

I also primed a Wild West character for our Legends of the Old West games.  I can't wait to get him painted and moving on the streets.

I hope all is well in your foxholes ....... sound off if you need anything.

Joe
