Yes... Miniatures... We did get in a few ...Thanks!<br /><br />Yes... Miniatures... We did get in a few games of Song of Blades and Heroes, but I do feel like the miniature gaming has fallen off a bit - and role-playing games have almost entirely disappeared from out repertoire! Perhaps those should be my next challenge - but I doubt I'd be able to manage a miniature game or a role-playing games every day for a month (though I somehow managed to do nearly that in High School!?). Perhaps just make a commitment to starting a role-playing campaign and running it once a week. I could also challenge myself to run a skirmish campaign - the "Song of" series of games from Ganesha Games take under an hour to play so we could bang off a 5-6 game campaign in a month. Or perhaps play a day long campaign on a free day (if ever we had one!?).<br /><br />The real trouble with RPGs is getting OTHER PEOPLE to commit to coming. I've been trying to get them going for years but it's hard when on any given night only half the players show up. Running episodic adventures (where each session is a complete adventure/investigation/mission) seemed like it might be an answer, but it rarely seems to works out either. <br /><br />The only players I CAN get to commit to showing up for EVERY session are my kids - which perhaps is a sign that I should just prepare and run a role-playing game just for them.... timhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09928949644765765070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9140646711960604590.post-33284968244923222522014-10-05T04:06:47.368-07:002014-10-05T04:06:47.368-07:00Sounds like a gamey september.
