May Gaming



So this last months gaming....

Much better gaming this time! Really got myself focussed back on my gaming.
More info after the jump!

This was also helped by me picking up two new game systems! So far I have managed a few games of both Dreadball & Drop Zone Commander.

In total this month I managed 23 games of one games system or another, helped by the shorter nature of Dropzone Commander & Dreadball games.

Hopefully June can continue this trend. Reviews for Dreadball & Dropzone Commander are coming next month, I figured I should make sure I have a decent grasp of the rules before I start reviewing the game.

Blogging
More Consistent Blogging. - Ongoing - This is getting better towards the end of this month I am getting around 3 posts a week. Which if I could keep doing consistently would be amazing!
Complete and post a Video Battle Report - Work in Progress - Need to pick the game system I want for this. Something like Dropzone Commander / Dreadball would probably work quite well as those games can be completed in an hour and would allow people to watch the entire game. 40k, would be more a review of each turn after it happened!
