Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum!

For those not in the know, Pathfinder is a tabletop role playing game, think cooperative storytelling with dice and making silly voices etc. Basically, one person runs the game, taking the role of the NPC's (non-player characters) both friendly to the players and enemies such as goblins and anything else that is not the players characters. As for the player, they create or "roll up" a character, choose a class such as wizard, warrior (think of it as the things the specialize in) and a race such as human, gnome or elf. We take up a mindset as that character and play through the trials and challenges the game master or "GM" puts before us, but we have to use knowledge that our characters have, not what we as players know. It's really fun and become one of my favorite hobbies over the last few years. I run a game every second Sunday, and play in a game every Thursday night run by my good friend Charles.



So some friends and I are playing a Pathfinder campaign called Skull and Shackles, we're a few sessions in and have been having a blast. It's a pirate themed campaign, one where our characters were kidnapped and forced to work on a pirate ship.

Cerberus tournament preparation

So I've been having a few practice games with a list to see what has more punch to it. The only kind of thing it hasn't faced is a swarm of any kind, but I think it may do okay there too, with some hard work anyways.

First game was against some Scum forces, two Interceptors and the HWK-290.

We're set up an away. Interceptors have heavy laser cannons, deadly at long range.

Two turns later, my Imperials led by Lord Vader close in and take one out.

Game ends after my opponent loses his second interceptor, my forces only taking two shields of damage due to lucky evasive rolls.

There has been a disturbance in the force...

So I set this blog up a while ago and have yet to do something with it, I figure my first post should be showing what I have for each X-Wing Miniatures faction.

My Rebel forces, you may notice I have several X-Wings, despite them being considered under powered, I like flying them.

Like any Imperial player, I have a decent amount of Tie fighters, which I love running, but I have no favorite ship with the Imperial forces. They are however my over all preferred faction.

Who cannot resist the temptation of Scum and Villainy!? Bounty Hunters are cool and being able to fly Boba, IG-88 and Bossk made them a must have for me.

Not a lot for a first post, I will start putting up more stuff to do with playing and modelling as well, am working on some Imperial Assault figures at the moment, will put some up when they're done. Until next time, however long that may be...
