Yesterday morning, I had stage fright. Running for the first time, my rules light D20 Fantasy Game, The #D101Hack, for a party of four #grogs as part of Virtual #grogmeet. I shouldn't have worried, the players embraced the BOSR D&D with elements of Fighting Fantasy (Test for Luck!) experience 1/

My latest order from @fenrisgames.com has turned up promptly, and its a bute. A box of evil dastardly cultists, with zombie friends, and four noble undead kings to oppose them summoning the evil tentencled demon also contained. Cheers Ian 😍

Many moons ago, my mate did a track for the River of Heaven (OQ powered Sci-fi ) Kickstarter, and it grew into a full album under the Slipdrive name. 11 years later, a new Slipdrive release is on the horizon, and it's a banger! keefbaker.bandcamp.com/album/synthe...

I've been working on some dwarf themed terrain again - and this time, it's the dwarven warrior relief/effigies that you can see decorating these walls
As always, there is a video showing how to put them together here: youtu.be/8j0djuRWKC8
(and a link to the pdf is in the description)

Swag from my Manchester visit yesterday. Finally, RuneQuest Gods of Fire and Sky, detailing the lovely Solar pantheon, bought from the lovely (but rammed) Travelling Man, and in the foreground a t-shirt that shows my geek-age from Forbidden Planet 😍

Today is the start of year 54 of my existence in this Reality of Awesome and Win. I'm grateful for the recent successful conclusion of many issues that have been a plague upon my household over the last four years or so. The Future is challenging, and I'm resolved to meet it with grace and fun 🤣

miniature backdrops not only cleverly and artfully fulfil a niche need, but they've also led to a massive amount of high quality paint jobs like this being shared. Which fills my heart with joy 😍

Lately I´m trying to take a nice #JHBackdrops picture with one of my favorite minis: Lord-Marshall Baphomet Malachias De Vries (and of course his Robo-Horsey Sugarlumps).
But I'm not quite happy with them yet.
Here are some I think are rather good.

Uh dear, is this in a medieval sense as in "Prince Andrew has retired to a remote, but comfortable, castle" followed in a year or two by "we are saddened to say, that Prince Andrew has died OF NATURAL CAUSES whilst living at Castle Remote" ? 🤣
King Charles may be planning to send Prince Andrew to a castle in the Scottish Highlands, according to reports 👀

Oh dear, I'm in the dog house with the Workers of the house (aka the young woman, 18 years, and the older woman, 49 years) for oversleeping and not getting them ready for work on time. Lots of shouting,but my favourite quote, from young woman, was "SHUT UP! You'll be having FOUR BREAKFASTS later!" 🤣

I’ve spent many years chanting Dr Suess, both as a child and a parent, so of course I had to write a recipe for Green Eggs and Ham! I came up with it for my kids when they were little, but that certainly isn’t to say #RecipeOfTheDay can’t be enjoyed by adults, too. www.nigella.com/recipes/gree...

I run a free #TTRPG Discord called The Raspy Raven (link in bio) that organises a diverse range of games across the globe and occasionally we even produce scenarios to buy and meet up face-to-face.
It sounds like a promo, but I'm very proud of the community we've created & the many gaming memories.
