Another Game Day Coming Up!

We've got another Game Day coming up pretty soon!  Neither of the Tims have played Song of Blades and Heroes ~ yet.  It looks like (appropriately enough) PJ and I will be on opposite sides.

Years ago Tim the Elder ran a really great long running play by mail Kingmaker campaign.  His periodic newletter was called Ye Olde Weird Herald.  It was so hilarious I still have every issue he put out.

This morning I just had to e-mail the guys:

Found in the Help Wanted ads in the current issue of Ye Olde Weird Herald:


Wanted: Brave Allies to share the Field of Glory and Fame with a Renowned Warband of AElves!  Humans, Dwarves and most others welcome. Orcs and Goblins need not apply.  Contact AEthelaxe for details.


Not long after we all recieved Poppa John's note:

Full page ad found in Ye Olde Weird Herald......somewhere between the Chariot Race results and the classifieds.


HERE YE! HERE YE! HERE YE!

ELF HUNT! KICK-OFF LESS THAN A FORTNIGHT AWAY!

Cum one, Cum all (well, not elves of course)! The KING has decreed that the time has cum to clear his royal forests, hills, dales, draws, fields, ale houses and out houses from the persistent and pernicious elvish infestation that has plagued the kingdom for so many years. Some elf named Exlax or something has been poaching the King's elk, and that was the straw that broke the regal back (so to speak).

So bring all manner of pointy things, snarly things, gigantic flying things, or things that go BOOM to the Castle on the morn of September 12th, and jolly good fun will be had by all (except the elves, of course, who shall all DIE). Elf hunting licenses will be provided, and the loyal subject with the most pointy ears at the end of the day gets a Groat and a free magic scroll to take home to the missus.

SO CUM ON DOWN!

Whineous Maximus Erectus
High Sheriff, Master of the Lists, and all-around good guy

Wowza . . . ! ? !

The Last Turn . . .

A quick shot of the last turn of the last game of Song of Blades and Heroes that John and I played.  The AElves have all died and the last Centaur is shouting his defiance and promising revenge against the forces of nastiness and Dragon-friends!

I haven't posted in how long now ??? !!! ???

But, but, but . . .  I have gotten to Game and have some Fun with my Friends!  So I'm way overdue to get back into the groove and start posting again.  (I'm going to totally ignore all of the Good Work that we've been doing in the last few months ~ after all, that's "work", not Gaming Goodnes!)

The Seasons are turning and we're looking Fall in the Face.

I have been getting some painting done !  I'll take some pics and upload 'em when I can take the time!

Poppa John came over tonight.

Fortunately he likes Song of Blades and Heroes as much as I do!!!

It's such a cool set of (fantasy skirmish) rules.  And someone else likes it as much as I do ?!?  Oh yeah, lets play a Game (or three)!  [This is coming rom someone that hasn't won a single freakin' game since we began playing!!!)
