My Hobby and Blog in the Summer 2017

One of the clay projects I worked
with my nephews and nieces.
During the summer, I spent the majority of my time with my nieces and nephews. We played mostly Pokémon TCG and Dungeons & Dragons Wrath of Ashardalon. We have failed three times (and counting still) in trying to save the villagers! In addition, we worked on individualized clay projects creating an Asian dragon, a dog, police badge, penguin, and a Pikachu. I found a lot of fun and satisfaction from both working with them on their projects and organizing leagues and campaigns for their games. For a while now and continuing into the future, the direction of this blog have been toward games that the younger audience would enjoy.

This means my current hobby goals are to finish up the adventurers from Wrath of Ashardalon and to paint the Rail Raiders Infinite game-a space western themed chibi miniatures game.

[Games] Rail Raiders Infinite - Train Cars and Cards Index

Last updated on January 15, 2018. In the expansions for Rail Raiders Infinite, the page inserts gave two options on how to incorporate the expansion cards and train cars into the core game.

The first option "is to replace original cards and cars with train cars and cards from [the expansions] before you start playing. When you make this swap, you must remove all of one type of card or car and replace them with a type of card or car with an equal number of cards. So, to use a Loot card from [the expansions] that has two copies, you must remove an original Loot card that has two copies."

The second option is to "add all of the cars and cards from [the expansions] to their respecitve decks and just play with larger decks and a bigger pool of train cars."

Below,  I have compiled a master list of the train cars and cards to help facilitate swapping them out.

Summer Break is Over!

Its been almost 4 months since my last update to this blog and I just wanted to make a quick post. I have been spending most of the time this summer working on projects with my nieces and nephews. Now that school is back in session for them, I have more time to update this blog. The next post I make will be about various Kickstarters and games I am looking forward to play.
