Introductions

Hey there!

Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Rob, and I used to have a blog here years ago, mostly focused on my tabletop wargaming. Unfortunately, I moved away from blogging as social media sites rose in popularity, and mostly shared my thoughts on those platforms instead of something I controlled. In restrospect, this was a particularly bad idea. However, in my defense, how was I to know that tech executives trying to win late-state capitalism would destroy the usefulness of those platforms to squeeze out further financial value?

Like I said, particularly bad idea.

That doesn’t mean I have to feel trapped by the situation, though. I still have this site, so I’ve decided to knock off the dust and start the blog over again. Are my ideas worth sharing? Maybe, maybe not, but I’d rather get my ideas out into the aether instead of having them trapped in my skull where they don’t encounter anyone else.

What will I be writing about? The list includes (but, of course, is not limited to):

  • Tabletop wargaming (Warhammer 40K, Age of Sigmar, Battletech, etc.)
  • Miniature painting
  • Roleplaying games (D&D, Warhammer Fantasy Role Play, Cyberpunk Red, etc.)
  • Collectible card games (especially dead ones)
  • Video games
  • Pretty much anything gaming, really

I don’t yet know how often I’ll write, but my goal is to post something at least once a week. It’ll be an interesting challenge to see if I can do it. It’s been a long while, but it’s good to kick the dust off, stretch a bit, get the juices flowing again, and get back to writing. Here’s to hoping I can keep it up!
