Patch came over on Sunday, and we played some Sekigahara. He’d played once before, and enjoyed it more than enough to request it again. I had Tokugawa the first game, and kept up a fairly aggressive strategy the entire game.[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
I’ve been off of this project for a while, but here’s another ten spells for my GURPS Dungeons & Sorcery system. Most of these deal changing form, or related ideas, but I’ve also finally included write ups for Identify, and[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

After going a couple rounds in Up Front, Patch and I went back to Commands & Colors: Ancients for a quick pair of games. This time was the Battle of Coronea from Expansion #6 (and as a part two of[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
After the smoke cleared, Patch and I decided to give Up Front scenario G another try, with me on the defense. I think we both decided to try out some of the later nationalities this time. I picked the Italians,[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
