postGeek: October 2012
http://postgeek.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html
Wednesday, October 31, 2012. Another Disturbance in the Force. As I suspected, Episode VII will be an original story. Not an adaptation of the Thrawn Trilogy. From the expanded universe. This has fans of the expanded universe. Going through another round of conniptions before they're even done with the one they had upon learning that Disney was taking over. Disney isn't going to make the mistake of trying to introduce story elements that don't actually take place on screen. They are going to create a...

postGeek: Disney Wars
http://postgeek.blogspot.com/2012/10/disney-wars.html
Tuesday, October 30, 2012. I think just about every geek in the world has already heard about Disney buying Lucasfilm. It seems like 90% of them are hating it, and I'm not sure I understand why. Of course, there will be the inevitable crossovers with Mickey Mouse wielding a lightsaber, but let's face it, George just approved a Star Wars/Angry Birds crossover, so even that is a step up from what we have now. So, overall, I'm actually mildly optimistic about what this might hold for the future of Star Wars...

postGeek: What I've Been Modelling Lately
http://postgeek.blogspot.com/2012/05/what-ive-been-modelling-lately.html
Friday, May 11, 2012. What I've Been Modelling Lately. No, I haven't picked up the X-acto or the paint brush lately, but I have been putting together miniatures for use in a tabletop wargame. That game is Mobile Frame Zero. It's a game of mecha combat using miniatures and terrain made out of Lego. I'll go over the game itself some time after I've had a chance to play it, but for now I want to share some of the mecha I've put together. So, here's some of what I've done so far:.

Saturday, January 14, 2012. What I'm Up To. What I'm up to in gaming:. Board Gaming: Board Game Night is still on hiatus. We started discussing a return at the beginning of December, but that's been derailed by developments discussed below, and will likely continue to be something that I'm unable to take the lead on. I'd love to attend one if someone else would step up to run it, but that doesn't seem to be very likely at this point. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). My blog about gaming and other geeky things.

postGeek: "You Can't Handle The Truth!"
http://postgeek.blogspot.com/2012/11/you-cant-handle-truth.html
Friday, November 09, 2012. You Can't Handle The Truth! Yesterday, my friend Gary Ray put up a blog post about Kickstarter. That has proven to be controversial. Since then he's been called illogical, "special," lazy, even "batshit crazy." His ability as a businessman has been maligned, he's been accused of wanting "all the money," as being unable to adapt to change. That last is especially funny for anyone who knows anything about Gary or his store, but I'm not going to do a biography here. Of course, I'v...

postGeek: Mobile Frame Zero Update
http://postgeek.blogspot.com/2012/10/mobile-frame-zero-update.html
Sunday, October 07, 2012. Mobile Frame Zero Update. Still waiting on the final version of the rules, but I did get the Mobile Frame Garage kit. That formed the bulk of my Kickstarter pledge, and I wanted to show what could be done with it. I probably paid significantly more than I would have if I'd put the order together myself on Bricklink. Still, even though I am now more familiar with putting together orders on Pick-A-Brick, I'm happy that I had this one put together for me. I'm really psyched to now ...

postGeek: February 2012
http://postgeek.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
Sunday, February 26, 2012. Is a series of products that are now over 15 years old, created for the West End Games Star Wars RPG. It is an attempt to create an extended campaign for the system spread over one boxed set and three modules. It provides some great adventure ideas and character concepts, but as a playable campaign out of the box it's a failure. I'm reviewing it now because I only recently had the chance to read through the whole line while preparing for a Star Wars game I'm running. The crew i...

Thursday, April 26, 2012. Dice Tower Awards 2011 Nominees. Apparently Tom Vasel over at the Dice Tower is having difficulty getting so called "serious" gaming news sites to post anything regarding the Dice Tower Awards. This is a shame as those same sites will regularly post news about the travesties that are the Origins Awards and other lists of "best games" that make people who actually play a lot of games go "WTF? Best Game of the Year:. Lord of the Rings: The Card Game. Star Trek: Fleet Captains.

Friday, August 17, 2012. FFG Star Wars RPG. Update: There's now information up on the FFG site. My comments on that below the original post. One of Fantasy Flight Game's Gencon announcements has been their new Star Wars RPG. I've been getting information from different sources, so I thought I'd try to compile it all into a single blog post. (picture is originally from the D6 Generation on twitter). Jason Marker and Sterling Hershey have both tweeted that they are involved in writing for the game. I'm hea...
