Gippsland Gamers summer holiday program.

GG have announced their Summer Holiday Program, which, naturally, you should all attend.
Details are to be found here.
Unless you find this post in years to come, in which case the link will lead to whatever they are currently offering in their next holiday program, and you will mourn the fact that you did not attend Summer 2016. Mournfully.

End of year program days.

During the end of year program, Messers Top and Jackson will be running two Wargames/Boardgames/RPG sessions, on Wednesday 9th and Friday 11th. Exact details of what Mr, Jackson will be doing remain sketchy, but Mr. Top is proud (indeed stoked) to announce Rabid Dog City, a post-apocalyptic role playing scenario using the popular Dice Chucker V.3 ruleset. Player take on the roles of a team of post-apocalyptic scavengers returning to the Rabid Dog City trading post only to find things are not as they should be...

The Dreaded Dungeons of Doom Death Destruction Doom and Death

The rules system for this adventure will (as usual) be Dice Chucker V.3. We will be using pre-generated characters and a random dungeon generation systems based on a set of fully modelled dungeon tiles. Heroes and enemies will all be represented by painted 28mm miniatures, and players will be able to keep their hero figures after the campaign. You will also be able to keep any dungeon tiles you make. There will be EIGHT places available, no more, and only players who have painted figures will be able to take part.

Week One: Build dungeon tiles from Foamcore.

Week Two: Paint dungeon tiles.

Week Three: Choose and paint heroes.

Week Four-Ten: Enter the Dreaded Dungeons of Doom, Death, Destruction, Doom and Death!

Master Painter 2015: voting opens.

Voting has opened in Master Painter 2015, LSCWC's annual painting contest!
You can check out the entries in the display cabinet in the General Office, and vote on your favourite in the poll running at the top right of this page. The winner's name (and the names of the other contestants) will be revealed on Friday 14th of August. Remember, the rewards of victory are shiny, and potentially cake-based!

PLEASE NOTE: votes do not always appear immediately. If your vote does not register, do not panic, it will appear within five minutes or so. This is a common problem with blogger's built in polling gadget.

The Voyage of the Crosswise Albatross: Aftermath.

In the deep crypts below a ruined mansion on a lost skisland, our heroes find what they have set out to seek, or so they think. Professor Galverston Rudge, sponsor of the expedition and expert on pre-fall artifacts rushes forward to examine the precursor statue. A few simple manipulations of the runes inscribed upon it cause the walls of the chamber to fall away, revealing a powerful vortex. The professor rushes forward, and is engulfed in blazing blue light.
"Fools! You know not what you have done!" he cries.

Betrayed by their own sponsor, our heroes are forced to fight a desperate battle against one empowered by the old gods. All seems lost, the vile villain lies slain, yet wave after wave of gruesome goblins pours forth. To make matters worse, two of our heroes lie slain, and the cleric is acting in a most unpredictable manner...

And thus, with a desperate battle, the Voyage of the Crosswise Albatross comes to an end.

Song of Blades and Heroes pricer

I have put together a spreadsheet which helps to do the maths required when building an SBH warband. Currently, it includes everything in my collection which has official rules in SBH or a supplement. It will probably expand over time, although I doubt I will ever get so enthused as to add ALL the SBH official units.
