So despite moving home and being back with my gaming group COVID has really messed with my gaming. We've been trying to fill the gap with virtual painting nights (which are fine, anything is better then nothing) but I've been really itching to actually play.

So I went ahead and set up a solo game. I've been painting up dwarf and goblin miniatures sense 2016 with the plan to eventually run the 4 game Bugman's Lament campaign. I was never into WHFB so the plan was to use the always fun Dragon Rampant rules and adjust the campaign accordingly.

I figured a solo game would be a good chance to test the unit profiles I'd put together and see how they played.

I played a 24 point game using one of the scenarios out of Neil Thomas's One Hour War games. The goblins are raiding dwarf land and need to break through the village to sack the lands beyond.

The dwarfs received a victory point for every goblin unit destroyed and the goblins received a point for every unit that broke through the defenses.

Playing solo, while its never as fun as a game with a friend, was pretty great. The scenario lent itself to the two sides making different choices and I had a great time.

The dwarfs pulled off a close win 3-2.

Rogue Stars!
A starship crew runs a gauntlet of security forces to reach their ship. The ran along the left side of the field, and are breaking from left to right to reach safety. The guys in yellow mean to stop them.

Another solo game of Dragon Rampant using a scenario out of One Hour War Games. Dwarfs held the hill and the goblins wanted to take it away. Terrain definitely favored the dwarfs and the goblins had a hard time making it over the farm fields and through the village. The dwarf crossbow were able to command the road and the rangers crowded out the approaches to the village. The goblins couldn't seem to get anything going and kept failing crucial activations and the dwarfs held firm and wouldn't be budged, even after getting hit by the wolf riders.

Fun game again.Still tweaking the unit profiles as I move forward.

A What If Scenario ... A raid by evil Spaniards at the Japanese Coast

A 3,000pt game of NetEpic (the fan-maintained of the old GW specialist game, Epic). The Tyranids managed a good win over the Orks. Despite losing most of their little critters the Nidzillas caused enough fires that the Ork Gargant exploded and the force on that flank collapsed.

Good silly-but-complex (with grillions of special rules) fun.

Got to play my first game in over 1 year today, also the wife's first game after putting up with me and the "little men" for 34 years. Also present younger son and daughter.
Old school sci fi mayhem influenced by the Mandolorian.
