Before the story starts, I’d love to introduce you to Firefight! It has, over the last year, become my favorite Sci-Fi Tabletop Strategy game. It utilizes alternating activations, universal special rules (USRs) and is overall just a fantastic game! This story is set in that universe and centers around Skretch, a Master Creeper. It isContinue reading “Fall of Lumina Part 1”
Warhammer 40k League: List Preview
Well. I took a huge break from 40k. Damn near a year. In that year I’ve sold all of my armies, explored multiple new games, and spent a lot of time with the family. I have committed to a 40k tournament this January, and it will be on a Hawaiian island, thanks in large partContinue reading “Warhammer 40k League: List Preview”
Trenches And Turbines Chapter 3
Here is the third chapter in the Arnican Rebellion, a period of history in the Trenches and Turbines setting. I’ve included a glossary at the end of the story, though I did my best to at least give enough context for them to make sense. Thank you for reading! The kitchen was modest. Cozy. WhatContinue reading “Trenches And Turbines Chapter 3”
Chapter 4: What the Grave Could Not Stomach
A blur of red and black sliced past Serathis as he twisted away. He struck with his tail, catching the king snake across the snout. It retaliated instantly, slamming its thick body into him like a battering ram. Stars burst in Serathis’ vision as his skull cracked against the ground. They circled, breath hissing, scalesContinue reading “Chapter 4: What the Grave Could Not Stomach”
Convergence Chapter 5: The American Response
Cape Canaveral, 2045 The harbor was quiet in the early morning light, its usual buzz softened to a gentle hum. Mist clung to the water’s surface, curling between the docked boats like smoke, as the rising sun cast a pale orange glow across the bay. Director Cunningham and General Flores made their way down theContinue reading “Convergence Chapter 5: The American Response”
The Ivarshade: A Trenches and Turbines Story
A story set in Cathonia, one of the Empires in T and T Ancient stone walls stretch to touch the clouds. Glorious spires crowned with ornate statues cast deep shadows throughout the streets of Vericentris. Shadowy images of the great Lion, in his thorned crown dance across the cobblestone paths that sprawl in front ofContinue reading “The Ivarshade: A Trenches and Turbines Story”

Trenches and Turbines: Chapter 1
Before we dig in, I don’t have an official title for this. It is just a world I’ve been building and stories I’ve been fleshing out for a long time that have finally come to fruition. I had hit a sticking point on Outlanders and thought it best to switch gears for a while. IContinue reading “Trenches and Turbines: Chapter 1”
Chapter 3: Shadows Over Timberflow
The river murmured under a grey sky as dusk settled over the wooded hills. Timberflow’s northern patrol route was quiet, almost too quiet for Bram’s liking. The woodchuck soldier moved steadily along the ridge above the Silverstream, his pike held loosely in one paw, his other adjusting the strap of his battered leather satchel. Bram’sContinue reading “Chapter 3: Shadows Over Timberflow”
Chapter 2: Dreams of Hunger and Stone
The river, swollen with spring rains, hissed quietly as it brushed against the rocks. Mist hung low over the water like a mourning veil. On a smooth gray stone in a pool downstream from the shattered otter home, the serpent lay coiled. Serathis. Ancient. Star-fed. Watching. The morning sun soaked into his scale-plated body, slowContinue reading “Chapter 2: Dreams of Hunger and Stone”
