Thoughts From The Lair

Vast is on the table tonight! #tabletopgames #tabletop #boardgamer #boardgaming #boardgames #playmoregames #bgg #bggcommunity #boardgamegeek

FINALLY playing the Monster Box of Monsters! @usaopoly #tabletopgames #tabletop #boardgamer #boardgaming #boardgames #playmoregames #bgg #bggcommunity #boardgamegeek

It’s been a while since I’ve played Lords of Waterdeep, but it is always a fun game. Sady, I came in 3rd. @wizardsofthecoast (at Merlin's Beard LLC)

I am in the early stages of my GenCon plan. Green are the first hits on Thursday morning, when my wallet takes it’s hardest hit. Orange is my Kickstarter GenCon pickup for Palm Island. @gen_con @breaking_games @upperdeckent @blueorangegames @thebrokentoken @deepwatergames #atlasgames #slugfestgames @theportaldragon

I found these 3D printed Catan reward tiles & various robbers on Amazon, so of course I had to pick them up for my wife.

I picked up some stainless steel “nail polish” balls for my @thearmypainter paint bottles. I was told it would improve the mixing. I will share my results at a later time. #minipainting #miniaturepainting

@teameisma taught us how to play Container tonight. It was a very interesting game. Trying to figure out the economy, who needs what and how much people are willing to pay was really fun. Much like Sidereal Confluence, it’s a game I suck at but really enjoy playing. Jessica of @teameisma pulled her shenanigans once again and pulled out the win, but @kevmann527 and Andrew H gave her a run for her money. At least I didn’t come in last. 👍🏻👍🏻 from me. I am looking forward to playing this again sometime. #tabletopgames #tabletop #boardgamer #boardgaming #boardgames #playmoregames #bgg #bggcommunity #boardgamegeek

I’ve finished painting the cowboys from Firefly Adventures: Brigands and Browncoats. Next up will be the thugs. @thearmypainter #galeforceninegames #fireflybrigandsandbrowncoats #minipainting #miniaturepainting #bgg

Another night of painting

Another round of painting this afternoon. One more session should finish the cowboys. #fireflybrigandsandbrowncoats #galeforceninegames #miniaturepainting #minipainting @thearmypainter

Happy #nationalicecreamday 🍨

I learned to play The Palace of Mad King Ludwig today. I didn’t do very well, but I did enjoy the game. Thank you, Rose of @rollymatrimony for teaching me and thoroughly kicking my ass in this game. @beziergames #tabletopgames #tabletop #boardgamer #boardgaming #boardgames #playmoregames #bgg #bggcommunity #boardgamegeek

I won a game of Coimbra!! 161 points is my best game yet! (at Merlin's Beard LLC)

So, my friend @kevmann527 (who is also responsible for getting me into the new board gaming craze several years ago) brought the Century: Eastern Wonders playmat back from Dice Tower Con for me. Even better, he had his DRC roomie Emerson Matsuuchi sign it for me. Kevin, you are (as I have told you bey) AWESOME!! @planb_games #centuryeasternwonders #dicetowercon2018

Last shot until they’re painted (which may be a while) but my first 10 are ready for some color.

First five primed. #galeforceninegames #fireflybrigandsandbrowncoats

Preparing to paint my first minis in over 30 years. Let’s see if I am any good.
