Here we go again. Lumbering action-fantasy stomper based - I kid you not - on one of Vin Diesel's Dungeons & Dragons games. Mediaeval warrior Kaulder (spelt with a K presumably because it's kooler, a principle I will be observing karefully in this review) battles the Evil Witch Queen and is kursed with immortality. What ensues is basically Highlander meets Hellboy meets Harry Potter meets Blade meets Men in Black: mysteriously, this film attempts to pinch the best bits of all those films and ends up seeming worse than any of them.

Plodding script is largely to blame, also the fact that Vin basically just does his routine smirking-swaggering-smug performance for most of the film. Usual excess of CGI doesn't help the situation much either. Michael Kaine (look how kool I've made him seem) somehow manages to emerge with dignity, but he's about the only one. Lazy film-making in virtually every way that matters (although it scrapes another point for the moment when Vin Diesel dolphins a giant wooden insect). Are they really still planning a sequel? Kount me out.

Your use of ‘K’ rather than ‘C’ really made me laugh!

So I haven’t posted in a while. My main focus is to get more following for the channel on Twitch and YouTube. With everything the way it is with the world I had to aim for a goal and by sheer luck and support we made affiliate in November by sticking to a stream schedule towards the middle of September 2020. Upon hitting affiliate during a spectacular raid from sources that helped secure such a goal in such a short time was amazing. I’m not going to lie I didn’t expect to hit it so fast.
The plan was to use this as a streaming channel to play boardgames and roleplaying games such as dungeons and dragons or the Alien RPG(that’s a definite). We are heading towards the lockdown being lifted and hoping to entertain you all with our gaming. So if you have a moment and would like to see what we’re upto (currently playing Valheim, Griftlands and Monster Train) then please feel free to come along and say hello.
I know there’s a lot of streamers out there and each with their own unique character and energy but, on follow on twitch helps massively and that one subscribe on YouTube goes along way to helping them. Oh and if you have a favourite streamer you can link your Amazon prime account to twitch and subscribe to them for free which gives you perks along the way and helps them in some/most instances.
Also if you have your own channel let us know below or on Instagram and we will follow and pull you into the community.
Take care everyone and we can’t wait to get to a table and play these games that have been piling up

The Greatest Ever Roleplaying Game? Damn Straight!
Dungeons and Dragons. A game released in 1974, 5 editions in and every time they out do themselves.

This game is fantastic for a number of reasons. Firstly, there are thousands of groups playing across the world, and this game is only getting more and more popular. This means, if you don't have any friends who want to play this, you can find a local group and join them, most of my closest friends I have met through DnD. Its perfect for anyone, most people are misfits and as such you form the closest bonds both in game and out of game.

I have now been playing DnD for the past two years straight, every Tuesday and Thursday; and yet I still haven't got bored. Every game is different, one week you're killing a dragon, the next week you're travelling across country with a Creepy Puppet Maker called Borris.

The leader of the group (AKA Dungeon Master) plans a rough idea of what is going to happen (it never does) and then as a group of players you walk around the world trying to accomplish quests. All of this is down to the fate of the dice. So no two games will ever be the same.

Honestly this is one of the games I will always return to and I plan on teaching my kids.

TL;DR
-Fun to Play.
-Available in most towns (and spreading across the country).
-Always different.
-Great to meet new people.
-Free Basic sourcebooks available from Wizards of the Coast

Build and Play all out war
This game has a very special place in my heart and I wish it started getting produced again. This review is not just for the base game by the Heroscape system as a whole. To me it is a lost treasure that I still pay premium prices to collect. Heroscape is primarily a combat game with a point based army building system. But even before that, the players build a battlefield using the interlocking and stacking hex terrain features, there are tiles of lava, water and ice, there are castle sets, bridges and even a marvel set to add marvel characters. I cannot paint a picture, but just google "epic heroscape map" to see amazing battlefields people have made. Alright, so gameplay mechanics. The combat system is dice based using shields and hits and line of sight and height of target it important, where you can take cover behind objects and creatures and also gain height advantage. There are interactions between characters that buff and debuff allies and enemies and interaction with terrain types. There were 3 master sets, a castle set, a bridge set, lava set, ice set, marvel character set and multiple character expansion packs. The miniatures are prepainted. Heroscape was bought by Wizards of the Coast where they released one master set with a Dungeons and Dragons Theme and one wave of D&D character expansions. It was then discontinued. In 2016 Wizards released Magic: Arena of the planeswalkers which recycled the Heroscape rule set, terrain molds and almost all mechanics, but under the completely different Magic the Gathering Branding and with a fraction of the terrain. Arena of the planeswalkers was also discontinued. The cheapest way to try out the mechanics of this game is Arena of the planeswalkers which should be able to be sourced used locally for about the $15 range.
