Speak Slow

Since moving to Louisville, I've managed exactly one session as GM, running Hunter at Conglomeration. That's about to change. I'm kicking off a FFG Star Wars game this week! Very excited. I need that particular cognitive exercise.

I broke in my own new TIE Defenders and Bombers in a couple of games over the weekend. Made a couple of horrible mistakes that lost one match for me, and just flat got outflown in another. Lots more to learn - I just don't play Empire enough, I guess. FFG's started spoiler articles for Wave 9, so I figure they'll have those ships for sale at GenCon. Hopefully they won't be sold out by Saturday morning.

Played old-school Little Black Books Traveller Friday night, and it was a good time. I have an early printing actual LBB box, courtesy of an ex-girlfriend, and dropping that on the table got a couple of comments.

Having survived the funeral and all the foolishness that accompanied it, Mom&Dad came up Sunday to pick up the Ranger from Micahalia. The little truck's due for some work anyway (new tires, a leaking vacuum line, one or two other things), and the timing's right. He hinted at bringing it back to Louisville and leaving it with me, and I guess that'd be plenty useful.

*sigh* A F-150 with the same paint job as my old one moved in a few houses down. The new neighbor is a couple years older than mine, but the similarities are more important. This one even has the proper West Coast mirrors. I have swooned.

SpaceX pulled off another first-stage return. Still not routine, but they're getting a good handle on doing this. I figure the real test will come when one of the returned stages is used in a commercial launch.
