The doors of Langton Manor hold many secrets, but none so heavy as those kept by Samuel the butler. As the 3-year anniversary of the series approaches, I find myself looking back at where this game first began:

Today I played the 4th mission in the #Stargrave #HopeEternal solo campaign, The Magnificent Ten. Joining my crew were Chella and Drix, and together they met up with Vel to get some info, the cost was protecting the village from slavers!
I was semi successful, protecting Vel and 3 other villagers, but the slavers managed to get 6 others off the board.
I'm going to play a rescue mission before moving on to the 5th scenario.

Over the weekend I played the 3rd mission in the #Stargrave #HopeEternal solo campaign. The last time I played was October '23! The dice were a lot kinder to me, especially with the encounter table. A pair of pirate rabble popping out for most of the game. Annoying but not nearly so worrisome as some of the other things that could have shown up.
Following on from my last post (and for anyone who might be interested), here's a bat-rep style blog post of my first real solo battle using the 'Age of Fantasy: Quest' rules.

I've been painting up a few mini's recently - with the aim of putting them to use in a few solo games... starting with Age of Fantasy: Quest (by #onepagerules ).
I've also posted a quick intro over on the blog...

...with more to follow :)
I backed this Kickstarter a while back (from Archmage Press )... and it arrived today :) :) :)
It's a DMless / solo / co-op adventure module for D&D (with some similarities to the old choose your own adventure books) - and, as you can see, it also comes with a bunch of nice (full colour, double-sided) battlemaps to use in some of the encounters.
With any luck I'll get to give it a try over Xmas :)
Am I using my access to a US shipping address for a week to pick up stuff that's practically impossible to get back home? Maaaaaaybe.
FFG have stopped any pretence that they want players to be able to get things before they kill the game but it is one of my favourite solo games.
