Painting Update: Short One, Because It’s Humid!
As many of you know, when you paint miniatures, it is necessary to have a nice try environment so that the miniatures will dry out and you can move on to the next layer. The problem here is that it is so hot and humid outside that the AC can’t keep up with my sunroomContinue reading “Painting Update: Short One, Because It’s Humid!”
Eric and the Dread Gazebo
Recently, Dear Readers, it has come to my attention that some of you may not know this classic story. I will now recount it here, it having been retold countless times across the interwebs. This version comes from: http://www.experience-point.com/dnd-blog/2017/2/25/eric-and-the-dread-gazebo The Story In the early seventies, Ed Whitchurch ran “his game”, and one of the participantsContinue reading “Eric and the Dread Gazebo”
Product Unboxing: Nolzur’s Marvelous Pigments – Underdark Paint Set
Here we are, Dear Readers, with another product unboxing! For those that remember, the Undead paint set was the last product unboxing that I did. The underdark paint set is of a similar vein. 10 paints, one being a metallic, and a miniature. As we saw last time, it’s a pretty standard box of paints.Continue reading “Product Unboxing: Nolzur’s Marvelous Pigments – Underdark Paint Set”
Well, It Finally Happened…
Dear Readers, I am so irritated right now. Throughout this whole pandemic, I had successfully avoided any and all contact with Covid and possible exposure. Until now. And although I am vaccinated, and although I am asymptomatic, I am choosing to quarantine for the next 10 days. What this means for me and y’all isContinue reading “Well, It Finally Happened…”
Painting Update: Goliath Barbarian and Planetar
First off, I’m really excited about these two projects. In particular, I’m really excited about the planetar. I think he, in particular, is going to turn out particularly well. Not to say I’m not going to put forth my best effort on the goliath, but the planetar is looking good to me. First off, theContinue reading “Painting Update: Goliath Barbarian and Planetar”
Upcoming Projects
So I have a number of projects coming down the pipeline that I am excited to share with you all! Battletech: Clan Invasion Unboxing I’ve said a number of times that, while D&D is most definitely my jam, I have a love of all things tabletop gaming. My other tabletop love is Battletech. Catalyst Games,Continue reading “Upcoming Projects”
How-To Play: Player Responsibilities
I’ve done a lot of articles on DMing, of course, and as I know that I have a lot of players that are Readers as well. As such, I’ve thought about this post for some time, and wanted to right it to address some things that many DMs have said that they wish their playersContinue reading “How-To Play: Player Responsibilities”
Waterdeep: Dragon Heist – Chase to the Vault
This is a summary of the second to last session for Waterdeep: Dragon Heist on my Sunday Group. It’s been a wonderful game to follow up after Icewindale. Tensions were high as the party chased after the Little orphan that they had already met who ran off with the Stone of Golorr. Following the kidsContinue reading “Waterdeep: Dragon Heist – Chase to the Vault”
The Grandma Who Plays D&D
How-To DM: Strongholds & Businesses
One of the cool things about tabletop games, especially with D&D, is the idea that, during the course of adventures, the party can acquire (and sometimes “acquire” if you catch my meaning…) various things that aren’t traditionally considered treasure. What am I talking about? I’m talking about businesses and strongholds. Maybe the king granted theContinue reading “How-To DM: Strongholds & Businesses”
Die Cast Miniatures
A while back my friend happened to have been in a store and found the coolest thing. I had heard of it but I hadn’t actually gotten around to buying one. She found them on sale. Noticed that each one comes with some sort of iconic character or creature. The first one comes with theContinue reading “Die Cast Miniatures”
Mini Painting Update: Aasimar and Elf
You all may remember my previous post about the two mins I have been working on for the young ladies I DM for on Wednesdays. After looking at the previous pictures, I realized that they weren’t doing them justice, really. Here is the aasimar paladin again, with better lighting: I think I did a goodContinue reading “Mini Painting Update: Aasimar and Elf”
Organized Play
Dear Readers, as you may know, or at least could have guessed, I am an organizer for Adventurers League, Wizards of the Coast organized Play for Dungeons and Dragons. Organized Play is very different than “normal” D&D play in a variety of ways. It’s actually, in addition to being called organized play, called “standardized” play.Continue reading “Organized Play”

Short Post: Mini Update
Sorry for the short post today, but I’ve got a lot of doctors appointments and other such things. On top of it, I have the young ladies’ group this evening that I have to prep for. Like I said. Long day. But that doesn’t mean I have nothing to give you today! Do you rememberContinue reading “Short Post: Mini Update”
Miniature Painting Project: Aasimar Paladin
Have you ever gotten so caught up in a project that it just consumed you for a little while? Yeah, that was me. Remember that Paladin I was painting? I totally forgot to take step by step pictures. Dear Readers, for about 2 hours, this miniature became my obsession. I was tapped by the miniatureContinue reading “Miniature Painting Project: Aasimar Paladin”
How-To DM: Converting Old Modules/Adventures
If there’s an activity that I enjoy as much as I enjoy miniature painting, it is the act of converting old modules. As I have detailed before, there’s an old adventure in Dungeon magazine issue 53, called “Clarshh’s Sepulchre” that is easily one of my most enjoyable modules to run. The best part of thisContinue reading “How-To DM: Converting Old Modules/Adventures”
I Finally Have Them All!!
As many of you know, Dear Readers, my favorite adventure of the pre-published kind is Waterdeep: Dragon Heist. It is easily one of, if not the best pre-printed adventures that Wizards of the Coast have published. Why? Great Question. It has action, mystery, adventure, dungeon delving, political intrigue, more action, incredible fight scenes and locations.Continue reading “I Finally Have Them All!!”
Running Sooooo Many Games! & D&D Magic the Gathering
You may remember my post a long time ago about being the “Forever DM.” Yeah, that’s totally me. And I bring it upon myself. Here are the number of games that I run: I run my Adventurers League table on Sundays, and just picked up an online game earlier in the day, and a DiscordContinue reading “Running Sooooo Many Games! & D&D Magic the Gathering”
How-To DM: Absent Players
We’ve all been there: you either have a regular session every week, or every two weeks, or even monthly. It’s scheduled out. But come the day of or the day before, and they cancel on you. Or, they just tell you they’re going to be gone that day and they can’t make that session. WhatContinue reading “How-To DM: Absent Players”

TGAPP: Racing After Rumors in Red Fern
Pardon to everyone, but I was out the session prior to the writing of this post, but I will do my best to summarize events since then. The Inglorious Ingrates faced the undead king Torgrym after unlocking the central pillar, but the undead ruler was waylaid shortly after meeting the Ingrates. The victors helped themselvesContinue reading “TGAPP: Racing After Rumors in Red Fern”
How-To Play: Types of Games
Dear readers, as you can see, I’m starting a new series called “How to Play.” I hope you enjoy it!

Hey everyone! I figured that all of you would be tired of seeing my miniature painting, and would like to see some others’ paintings. Here you go! What do you think, Dear Readers? Let me know in the comments section what you think! Until next time, Dear Readers…
