Okay, so, ilWife says that we could accommodate 10-12 with masks on except when eating. Does that cover the Originals and any significant others?

If thats too awkward or we need more people space we'll have to find somewhere else. The ilWife has spoken.

Seyla
If I did join up it would need to be a weekend. Then coordinate with my wife over here because telling my mom to hold the line solo with kiddo might result in someone getting buried out back. ;D

Any Sunday after 11am is good for me. I could bring the wombat. ;)

WOW!

K&J Magnetics, Inc. (they sell hobby magnets) just built a mini 3D model of the Red October with a working "caterpillar" drive. :D

they also have instructions to build one yourself. :thumbsup:

I am also happy to report that amongst the items left in my storage unit were two "tubs" of paperback books, so I still have several older CBT novels including the Warrior Trilogy (autographed), Sword and Dagger, and Wolves on the Border.

HUZZAH! HUZZAH! picked up "Heralds of Hope" squadron pack and 2 Tie/rb Heavy fighters ( :o they big) (and the cannon flips for rear firing :D); also picked up a 4th RZ-2 A-wing. Recently picked up 2 Xi-class shuttles and 2 HMP Droid Gunships

HUZZAH! HUZZAH! HUZZAH! Space X "Resilience" is SUCCESSFULLY in orbit :clap: :clap:

and just what have YOU been up to lately?

Psofan89 · « **Reply #1150 on:** 25 December 2020, 13:21:48 »

Not much, work takes up all my time during the holidays. Other then that, I’ve been working on a video game content channel with some buddies. Unfortunately our editor is... inconsistent at best, so content is very infrequent. Got my dad a 3D printer, so that’s resulted in some neat miniatures on demand >:D

On That note: Merry Christmas to you all and I hope you are all doing well.

Good to hear from you. :thumbsup:

Just got home from spending the holiday with the family.

Also just talked to Darrell; he's been "busy" lately but is doing well. We MAY get together this weekend depending on his schedule.

If something gets released, tell us.
We'll twitch the youtubes to facebook whatever video you released.
God I'm so old when it comes to terms. ;D

Looking at the latest RecGuide, it looks like the spirits of Snatch and Grab live on in the Snow Ravens!

sevengates · « **Reply #1154 on:** 31 January 2021, 23:09:21 »

.......... well, well, well ............ 8) looks like I need to do some digging :smirk:

Everybody doing okay?

sevengates · « **Reply #1156 on:** 18 February 2021, 22:41:28 »

I lost power early Monday morning; didn't get it back 'til Wednesday, only to loose water usage due to busted pipes. (not mine, I DID open all my faucets BEFORE the freeze)

For once, I can't complain about living on the third floor of a 3 floor apartment.

Weirdo · « **Reply #1157 on:** 19 February 2021, 12:00:13 »

We kept power, but lost water for about a day and are still under a boil order. Some friends still have no power, and have been staying with us this week so their lizards don't freeze.

AchanhiArusa · « **Reply #1158 on:** 05 March 2021, 19:32:40 »

I lost power for about 2 hours and that was it. Though the house got cold fast.

In other news I have had my first COVID shot so I'm almost ready to be seen in public again.

Weirdo · « **Reply #1159 on:** 05 March 2021, 20:59:28 »

Huzzah!

It'll be a while until I can get mine. From what I understand, if you catch covid, you're not eligible until you've been clean for 90 days, and I had it back in January.

Don't worry, Stina and I both lucked out with mild cases, only lasted about a week.

AchanhiArusa · « **Reply #1160 on:** 15 March 2021, 16:14:29 »

My second shot will be on the 25th, which means I can go to public places by April 8th.

Weirdo · « **Reply #1161 on:** 15 March 2021, 17:36:24 »

Woot!

Atlas3060 · « **Reply #1162 on:** 18 March 2021, 07:52:43 »

Still alive, no covid moments but a couple of moments I fretted for my family.
Mom has a new pacemaker so hopefully she'll keep ticking for years.
Played Alpha Strike with kiddo, also getting him into RPGs
We're surviving, one day I'll be back at the tables again, assuming one day we have tables again. ;D

Weirdo · « **Reply #1163 on:** 18 March 2021, 08:13:06 »

He probably already plays better than I do. :)

Atlas3060 · « **Reply #1164 on:** 18 March 2021, 09:30:37 »

He still has a lot to learn about Initiative.
Every time he has to go first, he'll charge right on in, so I'll get around him for backshots.
He cries and I tell him "no don't cry over your bad tactics, learn from them. Be better than some randos I've seen at the stores." ;D

Weirdo · « **Reply #1165 on:** 18 March 2021, 09:40:08 »

And then once he's learned this, mess with him by playing a capture the flag scenario which rewards you if you're able to get into certain hexes before the other player. :)

Is he still mech-only, or has he learned to respect the ground-pounders or fear the skies yet?

Atlas3060 · « **Reply #1166 on:** 18 March 2021, 09:42:04 »

Right now it's been Alpha Strike 1v1, Clan Mechs from the Kickstarter boxed set.
I'm not ready for his 7 year old grip on my metal minis. Some day he'll have a chance with them, but for now one piece figures.

Weirdo · « **Reply #1167 on:** 18 March 2021, 09:46:16 »

That's fair.

I promise that if/when we can store game again, I won't introduce myself to him with a Shiva or a Dig Lord, and a max of only a half-dozen infantry units.

Atlas3060 · « **Reply #1168 on:** 18 March 2021, 09:57:40 »

Good plan, at the moment he already knows of "Dad's strange friends who like robots too", or at least how I described you lot. ;D

Weirdo · « **Reply #1169 on:** 18 March 2021, 10:02:01 »

I can dig it. :thumbsup:
