TheGM—I’ve just returned from a small but delightful wargame convention in Ocean City, Md. It was a great experience. Set in a hotel right on Ocean City’s boardwalk (my room had an ocean view), Shorehammer 2018 offered up Age of Sigmar and Warhammer 40K tournaments, a few minor […]
I’d like to introduce a new region of the Corvus Cluster: the Varrenshall Subsector, henceforth known as “The Burning Frontier.” The author/GM of this subsector is Jakup (aka Thurservor), a gamer who was intrigued by an entry on this website about collaborating with other hobbyists. He dropped […]

The other day, as I was facing wholesale defeat in the latest tabletop battle of our campaign, I started to worry that I was going to lose my commissar, Major Rael Dracos. He was surrounded by orks, and the last round of melee hadn’t gone well. My entire […]
Seventeen blogs and not a battle report yet. What’s going on? Simple answer: It’s easier to write down the background information that I’ve conceived for this campaign than it is to schedule a battle with a friend. But it’s more than that. A narrative campaign should take place in […]
