Finally pulled the trigger on these... WOOT!

Just gotta get through my current Marik-focused career in HBS's Battletech. Priorities, people. I can't let the Captain General down.

I know I've been quiet over here, but I had to stop by and share my new favorite Frankenmech that I built out of a busted Dire Wolf and a bunch of SRM/LRM carriers. The Romulus! #battletech

Getting set up for Shadowdark tomorrow & super energized. Two of us are painting minis for the game, 2 are sketching character and scene art during the game, and one of the players just shared an original MP3 gloomy village theme reminiscent of something from a 90's CRPG. I can't ❀️ this game enough

I felt bad that I made custom miniatures for 4 of our 5 Shadowdark players in our Dungeons & Dojos crew, but the 5th was playing a mousling samurai mini I had done a few years back. I feel like this was a good "glow up" on a Scurried Ras-Godai who uses a chain whip.

It's perfect for this campaign!

My daughter's boyfriend is also playing, and he found a magic sword that turns him into a rat for 1 hour per night (any gaming during this time and he needs to wear a rat puppet we bought for him).

The antics between this cat and that rat are going to totally rock

@evlynmoreau.bsky.social I absolutely LOVED your "Some Magical Cloaks" article in Knock 4, so in our last Shadowdark game I hid the Cloak of the Cat in the attic of a local goblin mayor's manor last week.

Here's Steevin, my son Cooper's Human Thief, and the very moody robe-lurking feline.

Working on some maps for our new upcoming Shadowdark campaign. The Isle of Whispering Snow is going to be set just south of the Isles of Andrik and west of the Western Reaches. Each hex is 2 miles. The PC's will be starting out as hired protectors of the St. Serenia Monastery.
