Friday, April 17th – Halifax Indy gamers gathered at Josh’s house to fritter away our lives. Sam Fraser of Grow Giant Games (yes that’s a plug Sam), offered up a chance to play-test a project he’s had on the back-burner of an old decommissioned wood stove hidden in a shed at the old homestead. The […]
I totally failed to print this review in time to have any impact on Sam Fraser’s awesome Kickstarter campaign. Never the less for the sake of closure I’d like to sheepishly finish it out now (in October). — Draft circa sept 2, 2014 — Summer break is done and its time to start taking gaming seriously […]
So on July 10th players met at Sam’s place for our third AW session. Astute readers of this record will note therefore that this implies an undocumented second session. If you are that reader you are correct. If I had made a a post I know the title would have been: [Apocalypse World] You gotta […]
This is a place holder, not a report yet… some Halifax Indie gamers: Sam, Kevin, Alissa, Jake, Owen and Joshua met on May 29th at Sam’s house to commence an AW campaign. Sam, I think you already have author or editor privileges on this blog. If you care to report on the game play please […]

On the 8th of May, Carter, Alissa, and Joshua returned to the unassuming tables of gaming at Games People Play to continue the story of our Sorcerers. Event’s at the end of our last session had lead most players to consider their need for greater demonic power. I believe it ended with failed summoning attempts by […]
Thank you, thank you! Let me take a break to introduce the members of our Trio: First the’res me Willem Wilson on base… then of course our front: Octavia the Brave, free lancing paladin of all that is good and just, wielding her Halberd of fairness in her mailed fists of righteousness… and finally, […]
The latest chapter of our Halifax-based sorcerer game unfolded last Thursday on April 29th. The action commenced down on the waterfront where we had left at least three of the sorcerers following the shoot-up from the previous session. I admit my memory is getting foggy already, so I propose to start with a short snapshot of […]
reposted for Geoffrey McVey who sent it to me on March 31 (Sorry I’m so damn slow about this) A Quartet for Ravens, Session Three Tonight in our game, Derek, Joan, and Odette emerged from choosing their faerie patrons to go rescue Odette’s brother Travis from what they thought were the clutches of the Unseelie […]

Last Friday, April 11 a great number of gamers, I hope I don’t miss any (in order of appearance), Alissa, Jake, Carter, Richard, Travis, Sam, Stacy, and Tracy arrived at Joshua’s house. We warmed up with a couple of rounds of Resistance. I inadvertently played the traitor strategy of “draw maximum attention to myself and […]

On March 27, 2014 Sam, Nat and Joshua gathered at the Board Room. After the owner bullied us (hey we didn’t resist that hard) into playing a cool space board game (what was it called?), Joshua bullied the group into trying out “Shooting the Moon” by Emily Care Boss . I required that I play […]
