Happy Star Wars day!
« on: 04 May 2015, 06:02:31 AM »
So what did you do Star Wars related today (or whenever it is the 4th for you). Paint some Star Wars minis? Play a Star Wars related game? Boycott the day because you think it is stupid?

I spent an afternoon playing with my Imperial assault boardgame with my son and daughter. Not by the rules and I let them give me a sound whipping.

I wished my wife "May the Force be with you" when we split ways to our works. Oh yes and I am reading Rogue Squadron by Michael A. Stackpole serie.
Happy Star Wars day and may the Force be with you all.

I think I could give a look to a possible small Corellian freighter conversion work...

Wished the wife Happy Star Wars Day, now I'll prep the four corellian freighters on the desk along with a squadron or three of fighters.

I watched my original edit DVD of Star Wars while painting Imperial Assault figures. I listened to the first disc of Heir to the Empire on the way home from work. I'll probably read a Star Wars comic book later tonight, if I have the time. I 'm taking this seriously this year.

Clever plan that!

I have done some conversion work on a Fantasy Flight Games YT-1300, the light freighter that Han Solo used to call the "Millenium Falcon". Actually it is a bit of a mix between the older Corellian Engineering Corporation YT-1250 model and the newer YT-1300. Perhaps a pre-series model or even a prototype. Now there is one more freighter to reinforce the Rebel Alliance in X-Wing games on the table top...

It's 'Liberation Day' here in Denmark (German occupation 1940-1945 ended 70 years ago), so it actually marks 'A New Hope'...

We put candles in all the windows on this particular evening.

I received a few Command sets so I'll open them up when I get home after work.
I'll probably play until the missus arrives.  :D

Just click on the picture for the episode you want to watch. Not sure how long they're staying online, I know they've been up all weekend for May 4th
