Quick stop at Ohio Big Lots for some towels to clean the 2 Monsters that leaked in the back of the van.

GenCon Road Update #2

Rest stop break at North Somerset.

FYI - Brian was the champion at holding breath through the tunnels along the turnpike.

GenCon Road Update #1

No one told me we were stopping for breakfast. We had a nice hardy breakfast at John's Diner and did our first podcast with the whole crew.

GenCon 2013

Good morning loyal KGS fans.
It's been awhile since we have posted anything but Sam and I have decided to head for GenCon and I thought we would do some GenCon 2013 podcast updates during the 5 days we are in Indianapolis.

Please check back and tell your friends, KGS are back and better than ever.

My First Shot At Playing WarMachine

Had some extra time before work tonight so I went in to Comic Store West and finally learned the basics of WarMachine. I had a great time and it seems like a very cool game, so I'm gonna practice a bit before trying to play in my first official sanctioned tournament.

The army I have selected is Khador.
I'll post some pictures of my painted army in a future post.

Hot Rod Creeps - Race #1 - Four Short Speedway

Ok race fans.
Hot Rod Creeps the board game is out and KGS love it !!
In fact we are running a full season of races.
Race #1 of the 2012 race season was at the Four Short Raceway. As you can see from the layout there are lots of hairpin turns and not many pit stops.

It was a wild ride (especially through the shark pit and flaming ring) but the winner of the first race was 'THE UNDERWORLD' driven by KGS member John. I think he had a little help from the big guy (no, the big guy from down under).

Keep checking back for standings and the results of our next race.
Oh and buy this game, it is loads of fun !!

Let's Get The Band Back Together Again...

Both Old Brian and Scott have returned to the KGS and we've even picked up and extra player or two along the way.

Just to let everyone know we are playing back at CSW on Tuesday nights. We are currently playing D&D Next, we plan on wrapping that up soon and starting a Star Wars RPG Beta game with some new Star Wars X-Wing Ship Combat thrown in on off days.

Who knows maybe the podcasts will start back up again.

Keep checking back.

Gears of War: The Board Game
