Turns out roadrunners are big fans of the heavy euro genre (Civolution in this case).

Played Don't Look Back from Black Site Studios recently - a 1980s horror miniatures game. It was fun! Lots of accruing terror and running away from a maniacal killer. Very evocative theme.

Made some progress on the Traitor's Toll characters from @wargamesatlantic.bsky.social! Lots of customization options. This is only two of the six sprues included. These are close to builds shown on the box cover, but I may branch out more after this.

Picked up the base set for Guards of Traitor's Toll this week, and started the time intensive process of assembling miniatures. I've been painting more old school-ish minis for so long that I forgot how involved that could be!

Plenty to work with for now, and not even 1/2 through the sprues.

Really hit that Gen Z demo for LH 2E.

Been shooting the World War Ruins Backdrop Book, with a @knucklebonesminis.bsky.social corpse frame, some DiceVerse trench shrines, and some @fenrisgames.com rubble.
You can pledge for this new book at @badsquiddogames.bsky.social Resistance kickstarter, which is on right now.

A COMPREHENSIVE GUIDE TO TTRPG ART COMMISSIONING AND LICENSING

It's done! Here is my guide to art commissioning, licensing, and art direction in TTRPGs. It's free to see, has contract and brief templates, and plenty of resources to aid in art literacy in the space.

Wrote up some thoughts from recent playtest of Watermelon Mountain at a local con here (Bubonicon). The TLDR: it's good to not spend much time on graphic design for prototypes. But! Sometimes you can hurt accessibility and make it unplayable for some people.

I also painted some Bob Olley ogres for a game called Fantasy Warlord (which I neither own nor have ever played). They do have an #Oldhammer feel, which makes sense given Bob Olley did work for Citadel as well. They have massive shields which I decided not to use for now.

Just about finished these #Oldhammer halflings (Old School Miniatures and Citadel Miniatures). Just in time for some more halflings to arrive and add to the unit! Really like the rabbit in the bag for the farmer-looking guy.

Also got into a game of _Guards of Traitor's Toll_ yesterday. It's fascinating - a non-wargame miniatures game, where you run around town solving plots, breaking up brawls, and trying to keep the peace. A confluence of RPGs, miniature games, and boardgames.

Tried _Fate of the Fellowship_ this weekend. It's solid. Big step up in complexity from pandemic. Instead of disease outbreaks, it's a much more complex shadow troop movement system. But very thematic and tense, thinking about picking it up.

New to World Wide Wrestling? You'll use all the skills you already have playing rpgs to create the high-drama storytelling of professional wrestling!

Your characters? In conflict. The people in the tights? All working together to wow the crowd.

Played the new reprint of Warlock of Firetop Mountain by @stevejacksongames.bsky.social last night. This wasn't one of the ones I had in the 80s (I had Forest of Doom and Scorpion Swamp). Mostly did well, but get lost in the maze.

Notecards were not the best choice for mapping!

Current painting project is a unit of 12 #Oldhammer halflings, mostly from Old School Miniatures (www.oldschoolminiatures.co.uk), with 3 of them being old Citadel miniatures I found buried somewhere.

This is amazing. That 3E WFB image is etched in my brain, and I've long dreamed of recreating it.
