It's 2 weeks to Dragonmeet and once again I will be there with my collection of Sci-fi and Cold War RPGs plus a selection of games from Scottish creators.
Come find me at H2 opposite All Rolled Up!

Checking for page xx and other temporary text as part of the proofing on The Words We Leave Behind while I'm waiting for a flight. Having a good sized tablet makes the process so much easier.

Visited the caves at Nerja and it's damn impressive to think that people once lived in them with only fire and torchlight. They really made me think about how disconcerting exploration in fantasy RPGs would actually be.

YAAAAS! Thank you @wyrdscience.bsky.social for what looks like another awesome issue from my first flick through.

We're slowly letting Halley (the calico) explore more of the house after adopting her a couple of weeks ago. Orion (black and white) is not impressed as he keeps getting confined to the back rather than being allowed to roam free.

Almost exactly 900 words drafted, mostly setup and structure before I start on the prompts. Of course I wasn't there just to write.

The perils/benefit of coming to the cat cafe to do some writing. Despite the distractions I've gotten a fair chunk of words down on the first draft for SSBN.

I've been listening to 13 Minutes, a BBC podcast about manned space travel and season 3 is on the space shuttle. They've just got to the mission where this photo was taken - the first untethered space walk and the idea of just floating in space like that is fucking terrifying!

Test draw number 1 for SSBN, once again adapting the W&A engine to build the tension in the game. The challenge will be writing all the prompts in time for November.

All set up for Wirral Warboot today! Makes a change to being doing a nice small, local con.

If you're anywhere near the Wirral and want to pick up some bargains tomorrow then pop along to the Wirral Warboot. I'll be amongst the traders so say hello if you do visit!

Finally got around to trying out Timber Town after buying it at UKGE. Fairly straightforward and fun, lots of similarity to Glasgow but slightly more complicated mechanically. Production quality is good but some of the icons need to be a little clearer.

While I've mostly been working on The Worlds I Wrote For You lately I've been sketching out the framework for SSBN. Key to the game will be getting the tone right, I want to make people think without glorifying the nuclear deterrence these subs represent.

I also played about with some draft images for two ideas that are very early in development. I'm hoping I can get an ashcan of at least one out by the end of the year.

The at the correct scale mock up still wasn't quite right so guess I'm learning the basics of TinkerCAD now to iterate on ideas faster and get a feel for scales

How deep down the rabbit hole of minis have I gone today? Well I just made an oversized cardboard mockup for a ship to check how it looks. Now to try it at the intended size.

Slowly making progress on my little mech. Got a couple more panels to do then onto highlights. My attempt at glazing on the sword needs work, never was any good at that.

This last week has been rather shit, watching Mir's health go downhill and then saying goodbye to her on Thursday. Originally I'd have been at the in-laws in France right now but we cancelled that to look after her so I've spent the last few days holed up just trying to ignore the world.

No game tonight but I've still come down to @rphaven.bsky.social Liverpool to do a solid writing sesh. Progress has been slow on the solo rules for The Worlds I Wrote For You but I've made good progress tonight and feel like I've resolved a few stumbling blocks.

Another quiet block of hobby time got the bulk assembly done but I've still got all the greeblies to add before I prime and paint. Thinking of giving contrast paints a try given they didn't even exist when I was last into minis.

I went a little too heavy on the wash given the amount of large panel to details but I'm liking the overall vibe. I'm treating this very much as a learning experience. Next: tidy it up and some edge highlights.

This game is a goddamn work of art. I've only skimmed through it so far but the production is fucking fantastic.
