Developing Morningstar, a LEGO mecha & spaceship tabletop wargame. I also do other tabletop stuff and sometimes art.

Another chassis for my mecha game idea. This one trades speed for heavy armor, but still mounts up to two weapons. These three specialize in assault, direct fire, or artillery, but they could just as easily mix types for more versatility. I'll see how well that works when I start playtesting. #LEGO
While Morningstar focuses on an original setting, I'd also like to work on another game allowing for smaller, cheaper builds and more customization. So here are some early designs to test out the idea. These balance speed and armor, with a mix of assault, direct fire, and artillery weapons. #LEGO
My goal for this project was (and still is) to make a tabletop extraction game. So here are some potential upgrades to this new drone design. I figure you'll start off with just generic small arms, then choose to spend your loot on heavier weapons, extra armor, or other auxiliary systems. #LEGO
I checked out Iron Sleet (https://spectralidax.itch.io/iron-sleet-ttrpg) and it made me want to get back to some of my languishing projects. So here's a new design for the drone game I last worked on over two years ago. I have some new ideas on how to make that work, but we'll see if I can maintain any momentum. #LEGO
The Grenadiers pressed their advantage, sweeping through the Gun Squad and the isolated is-Caerten before losing one squad to the Pygaed. Trench Watch Cavalry surrounded the tractor, but though they failed to damage it the Easkovites were already broken. Great fun, can't wait to add even more! (4/4)
A second Rhyfler Squad joined the melee against the Shotgunners, almost breaking their line through sheer weight of numbers. But the Grenadiers that charged in instantly destroyed a Rhyfler Squad each, leaving their hapless is-Caerten all alone and the Easkovite right flank completely open. (3/4)
An Easky Rhyfler Squad joined the Gun Squad in overwatch, causing casualties on the Trench Watch Infantry's approach. The Trench Watch Cavalry wiped out the Autoped Patrol on the flank, then lost a squad to machine gun fire from the Pygaed. Shotgunners then assaulted out of the woods. (2/4)
Played another solo game of This Quar's War today, with my new (still WIP) terrain and three sections per side. In round one, Creevin's assault section moved into the woods while Easky's Autoped Patrol flanked and their Gun Squad took up overwatch atop the hill. (1/4) #tabletop #wargaming
More progress on my scatter terrain. Added some railroad ballast, then a mix of coarse and fine turf in three shades of green. Seems alright, but I might do another pass with more light green to make it more lush. And I still need to add larger plants and seal it all in. #tabletop #wargaming
Despite enjoying this hobby for decades, I'm pretty sure this is my first time making my own scatter terrain. Designed for 15 mm Quar but should work for other scales and games. I think it's going well—next I'll add smaller rocks, then grass and bushes. #tabletop #wargaming
