Introduce yourself with 4 Spaceships!

Fuck the Empire but the TIE Fighter engine wail is my all-time favorite sound effect, and they’re more fun to fly than X-Wings.

Embarrassingly proud of the time I went 33 and 0 in a TIE in SW: Squadrons PvP.

Also I really like Elite Dangerous’s ship designs.

#cataphracts #vanitera450 has brought out my artistic side.

Behold: my greatest contribution.

Did a quick sketch of my #over/under PC.

Wilton Hassel started as “what if Harry DuBois was Appalachian?” but he has turned into a purveyor of oversized jackets and the premier expert on the Mini Marines tabletop wargame.

Late to the party but I have finally started Disco Elysium.

I have also changed my phone wallpaper to Volition from Disco Elysium.

I don’t want to read too far into that.

My obsession with running new games as written means yes, I AM prepping Mothership in a composition notebook instead of on my laptop.

Not a Nolan regular (yet) - and fully inspired by the LOTR Magic set here, but I’d cast John David Washington as Aragorn.

He’s got the physicality, the suave, and I bet he would look awesome in a grungy Ranger cloak howling “Elendil!”

I didn’t get to speak to Rich McCormick, and he didn’t see my sign (they weren’t allowing signs and had them tucked away in a corner)

I set mine down message facing out. A reporter snapped a picture.

Security saw, and turned it face-down. Then, a passerby flipped it back, so it was readable again.

He won’t respond to my emails, he won’t answer my phone calls…

… but I just got emailed this, so I’m going to make sure he leaves knowing who I am and exactly what I want him to do:

Don’t starve my students, asshole.

First book of 2025 down.

Jewish mythology meets a stoner road-trip, with the end goal of crashing a Neo-Nazi rally.

Roman group hug?

Been messing around with a new rule set for procedurally generating hex maps.

6 biomes with d6 terrain types. Starting in one corner, roll 3d10 drop the lowest, and fill that many continuous hexes with a single type of terrain. Repeat for new regions until the 10x12 hex map is filled.

Phyrexians got me into Magic because they filled the Bionicle-shaped hole in my heart.

This guy was a staple in my (admittedly bad) high school Dimir deck.

It was mostly counterspells, with some unblockable creatures like Harbor Bandit and Tormented Soul, and card draw from stuff like Curiosity.
