Day: January 2, 2017

Not that I plan on posting something every day on this blog, though I should.

Nah.

I spend the better part of the day out an about, browsing aisles at Fry’s and Game Kastle. I needed a replacement charging cable for my phone, so I ended up getting 2 of those (one was found to be too short when I got home), a Hot Wheels car, and some gummi candy from Fry’s. I also almost walked out of there with a USB microphone, the kind used for things like podcasts. I stopped myself when I realized that I don’t podcast.

At Game Kastle, I must have spent over an hour there, browsing and almost starting a trip down the rabbit hole/money suck that is the Batman Miniatures game. The rulebook alone, along with just 3 minis, was a bit too high to start investing in a game that I probably would end up not playing, much like Warhammer 40K had become over the years. At least I may be playing 40K again.

I also looked at supplements for a couple of other games, including Zombicide: Black Plague and a couple of RPGs: Mutants and Masterminds and Traveller.

I found that I could get the Black plague supplement cheaper online.

I was reminded that I purchased a mega bundle of M&M PDFs, including most of the printed items that I saw today.

As for Traveller, I’ve been itching to play some sort of space-themed role-playing game since watching Rogue One. I dug out the original Star Frontiers rules, and browsed the Traveller PDFs that I had picked up in another online sale sometime last year. Again I found that I either had the printed materials in PDF, or I could get them cheaper online.

My monthly group may or may not be starting a new RPG campaign with Mutants and Masterminds. I’d love to start a space RPG campaign.
