Recovering Artifacts

 today is my girlfriend's birthday. and so i thought it would be nice to host a game to where she and her boys would team up and play as a recovering team that landed on a deserted ship to find artifacts. four teams of three would scour the ship for these items. each item recovered is worth victory points, but the main victory is to survive and escape the ship with the artifacts. i used a modified version of Fistful of Lead for a rule set. with all the excitement and having too much fun and didn't think of taking a lot of pics. but with what pics that were taken, they were taken by Rita, i think she does a better job at it than me. the recovering teams arrive on a elevator. i wanted to have these teams to find the artifacts but have some kind of a resistance. i used the game mechanic of blip markers from the Space Hulk game. i did this because of the shock factor it produces when revealed how many aliens are incoming and the faces of Rita's boys' faces is priceless.

black puddings: fat free and fun to make

i always wanted to put on the table ooze monsters and such but the miniatures from Wizkids only came in one size and style. so i went looking for some tutorials on how to scratch built ones. i looked on Youtube for any instructional videos and as usual i end up on DM Scotty's channel called TheDMsCraft. click to view video.   the only thing i did differently is i used regular hot glue, spray painted it with a black and then few coats of gloss Mod Podge. in Dungeons and Dragons if a ooze or pudding is struck down by certain weapons or damaged by particular types of magic spells, they will split into smaller versions of itself. one large ooze will split into two medium size pile of ooze. if one medium size is damaged it also will split into 2 small versions. i made enough to a large size black pudding is able to split into the correct amount of puddings down to the smallest form.   group of adventurers is ambushed by a fairly large black pudding.   after some time fighting ...

Blaster Rifles and Cold Blood - Fistful of Lead

 about a month ago a member of the Wiley Games facebook page, posted pics and a small summary of a game they did using Fistful of Lead: Galactic Heroes and FFoL: Fantasy rules. and reading the post and checking out the pics it tickled a creative bone inside me. they had space orks crash onto a medieval planet, and had to collect spilled oil around the table while fighting off the inhabitants of the land. having been working on my lizardmen, i figured i'll use them as the primitive inhabitants of the land and use my recently finished Brotherhood figs from Warzone game from the 90's. just a basic game nothing much. search and destroy and kill one another. i knew it was gonna be one sided but i had high hopes. layout of the table. the inquisitive Brotherhood, looking to spread the word. the lizardmen a few shots, and made an archer shaken. the Brotherhood forms a line of defense. trying to regroup, one takes off running. the lizardmen on the move. the archers advance but gets take...
