Why Zandeland? Well, my jungle terrain is beginning to look a bit shabby so what better incentive for refurbishing existing terrain and building new terrain than to expand my African collection with new miniatures - the Azande! I know of only two companies who make 28mm figures of the Azande (both by the same sculptor):… Continue reading New Year – New Project – Zandeland
Sleeping Dragon, Episode 2 *Note: This episode is from a 5150 New Beginnings Travel Encounter. Why a Travel Encounter? Because, the characters are traveling from one point in the city to another. The Travel Encounter is a short encounter to play and sometimes nothing happens in the encounter. But, remember all of that backstory you've… Continue reading Star Punk Dreams: The Orange Line

Next month, Two Hour Wargames is set to release CVL - a Sci-Fi Football game. I love it and hate it at the same time. I love it, because I finally get to dust off figures I painted years ago and use them in a game. I hate it, because it means I need to… Continue reading CVL is Coming!
Alignment Defined & Problems Dungeons & Dragons, Pathfinder and other RPGs define Alignment as a character's or creature's basic moral and ethical orientation or attitude.

We can all say we have seen "good" people… Continue reading WHAT – A Look at Alignment

Secrets both ancient and new, that beckon the traveler to face danger and surprise at every turn. Long lost civilizations lurk in the shadows, brooding and biding their time." - Colonial Lemuria, Back Cover Last,… Continue reading Colonial Lemuria – a Homage

Painting WWII Soviet Winter Uniforms I've grouped the miniatures I received from the Bad Squiddo Games Kickstarter into small batches for painting. In the first batch is the officer, the LMG team, and the six riflewomen in greatcoats. I applied my usual first step in priming the figures with black gesso and adding a zenithal… Continue reading A Red October 2021
While waiting for the Eastern Front campaign book, there's a bit of an arms race at Floozy Manor. A few weeks ago, the Soviets got a T-60 and today, a Panzer III Ausf.G rolled off of the painting table. It's a 3D printed resin model that's about half the cost of a Warlord or Rubicon… Continue reading Panzer!
