Making my way through the Series Replay article in the ASL Starter Kit magazine and it is just so damn good. Learning so much but also loving the IJADG ethos. Top marks to both players and @multimanpublishing.bsky.social

Trust me. I so wanted to love this game (and concept - I also bought Colonial Twilight). But having just finished a play though on VASSAL Discord I’m so disappointed. I don’t think it’s necessarily the system. It’s me. I just love hexes and counters. #COIN #wargames #VietnamWar

Couple moved in next door. Old bloke lived there before had a beautiful garden. He spent every day in it. New guy ripped out everything & put fake grass in. So I've planted trees next to the boundary that will fill his lawn with dead leaves in the autumn. This one's for you Alf

Just did a major cull of Followed Accounts, apologies if I’ve deleted yours in error. Was finding BlueSky (which I had major hopes for) just too rammed with random and pretty puerile posts. One or two I can live with but when my feed is full of them it’s time for action.

Just ordered the first edition of Basic Training from @multimanpublishing.bsky.social Looking forward to getting back into ASLSK after a little break. #ASLSK

I try to steer away from controversial stuff but for anyone who hates landed privilege here's a link to a peaceful trespass on the land of a classic 'anonymous landowner'. Come along if you can. examplehttps://www.eventbrite.com/e/bridehead-unvisited-tickets-1402139730679?aff=oddtdtcreator

I'm far from a dyed-in-the-wool republican but #bbcnews please stop posting this kind of sycophantic nonsense in your major 'news' headlines. #monarchy #uknews #journalism www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I've enjoyed working on the Ironsworn Reference Guide update, but the bestest part of the project is seeing the things I cobbled together in 2018 reimagined by an actual artist. Such as the shiny new map of the Ironlands by @damienmammoliti.bsky.social.

Every empire ends, but Trump has greatly hastened the end of US hegemony. What’s really surprising though is that it’s all been done with complicity of a majority of the American electorate.

On Sunday morning I’ll be walking round my local cemetery in West Norwood. When I see or hear a bird I’ll shout ‘BIRD!’ For some reason this is being advertised as a ‘guided bird walk’. You should come along. It’s free, but you have to register. www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/spring-bir...

It’s a tradition in our household.

Anyone else noticing an huge increase in bot account follows recently?

Rewatching this in preparation for the latest season and I have to say that IMO it’s the best drama the BBC have screened this century. Sublime script and acting. Understatement and nuance are everything. #BBC #WolfHall

Thanks to the enthusiastic response to the #CallOfCthulhu encore, Humble Bundle has extended the offer for one more week! $426.00 Value • Pay What You Want • Supporting the World Wildlife Fund

Played some Alien RPG down at the local games cafe last night. Guess what - we all died 😂 Interesting game with a clever stress mechanic. I thought Shadowdark was pretty grim but wow, Alien takes the biscuit. #TTRPG #Alien #FreeLeague

Just completed running my Play-by-Post #CallOfCthulhu one-shot and with the nights drawing in I feel a new solo campaign is what's needed. I always start with the outline setting so I'm looking forward to an exciting if somewhat mentally tiring day ahead! 😀 #soloRPG #TTRPG

This is great news. However, let's hope the system continues to grow enough to handle the increasing membership, and also the number of moderators. None of us want to see @bsky.app turn into the online cess pit that Twitter has become.

I finally decided to start cultivating more and more this platform since Twitter has become a major contributor to the worsening of my mental health sooo... can I ask you to help me building back here some visibility? I make colorful maps with lots of detail, thanks if you want to share them! 🙏

Such a great piece of terrain to play on! My Hobbits had a great time hitting ruffians with sticks 😁 Absolutely check out Ian's work! Great quality and countless options for your table top

Oct has been a rubbish month. Forced to close the shop for over 3 weeks. Online sales have been lifelines to survive... uk.bookshop.org/shop/Jam So Nov will be a big month with a signing every Saturday! Look! #books #comics #illustration #horror #Bookshop #london #quest #manga

The dogs force me to get out of the bat cave sometimes and I’m very glad they do. #wiltshire

Some nights, the paths lead to different, older places.

Came upon this after seeing a reference in a Bluesky post (skeet?), and I am absolutely LOVING it. Will definitely be running it by my daughters this Christmas. For me it has the same feel as ‘Elidor’. The 70s were so great for kids fantasy. www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/w... #fantasybooks #bbc

Hello, Bluesky! On Twitter, I have almost 800 followers, but let's be honest, most of those were bots. Honored to be here! Let's do some #MiniaturePainting, play some #TTRPGs, and watch some #Movies and #Anime!

Just signed up for my first #Bloodbowl game since the 1980s (at our new local games cafe - use them or lose them). Almost feel young again.

Hello new Bskies and fresh followers! Just a reminder that we small Indie creators and artists don't have shareholders to satisfy, just bills to pay. And that while Likes are lovely, Reposting stuff is the best way to help with visibility for us. If you see models or art you love, please share!

This is an absolute steal! Go for it guys.

SPOILERS..... Just completed the Play-by-Post Cthulhu game I've been GM'ing on Discord. Scenario was 'The Necropolis'. My three investigators ensured the big bad met a grisly end but were then buried alive beneath the Egyptian sands when the dynamite exploded. #CallOfCthulhu #Chaosium

I would like for life to stop happening *quite* so much all at once the events are empowering my brainweasels

Very disappointed by this announcement from #Netflix. Popular but just not popular enough? Decisions like this make me less inclined to invest time in any 1st season without knowing a 2nd season has been commissioned, which HAS to be bad for subscriber income. #Koas www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

After my second visit in four days to a specialist London hospital with one of my daughters I really appreciate how much of a vital escape from the worries and stresses of the real world gaming can be. #TTRPG #wargames

Finally but the bullet on Old World. Went with Warriors of Chaos for a maximum points for my £. Should get me a reasonable force with which to learn the game. Almost certainly won’t be my long term faction though. #Warhammer #OldWorld

Cosmos, online, for free. You’re welcome. archive.org/details/cosm...

Trying to choose my initial Old World Army. I’d like one that’s 1. Easy to paint 2. Easy to play and 3. Not costly to buy. Currently torn between Goblins and Orcs and Warriors of Chaos. I would have included Dwarfs but my buddy has those as his army. I’d welcome suggestions. #Warhammer #OldWorld

Merely creating and maintaining this list: U.K. conventions docs.google.com/spreadsheets... Makes a man great. (I promote it every opportunity I get and get thanked every time). UKGE used to have a great bespoke system but never got it into a finished condition they were able to sell on.

Some Monday morning eye candy. My Peninsular French and British troops based for Blucher, my favourite Napoleonic rules. Figures are 15mm Battle Honours moulds from the mid 1980s (although the figures themselves are more recent). #wargaming #15mm #Napoleonic #Peninsular #wargames #Blucher

Always good to visit an old friend. David Gemmell's fantasy novels were the bread and butter of my youth. With classic tropes and straightforward plots they weren't high literature but by God they were great stories that fed directly into my #TTRPG bug. #FantasyLiterature #Books #PublicLibraries

This blog has some great content for #Runequest players or #Glorantha aficionados. Nice article here on The Prosopaedia, good to know it includes pronunciation notes for all those gods!
