Pandemic: How will you continue to enjoy your hobbies?

[atanakar]

First of all, our next rpg games will be online. I've never done this before but have been wanting to. Skype for the first session. Maybe Roll20 afterwards. My wife and I will be continuing her solo player Essential Kit adventure.

Looking at my pile of unpainted miniatures, I've got my work cut out for me!

Reading : I received the Forbidden Lands box a few days ago. I'm halfway through Modern AGE Treefold setting book.

Edit: I'm also fiddling around with the B/X ruleset. Writing all the house rules we created in the 80s. Not sure were I'm going with this. It's fun to do on rainy days.

Finally, this winter I rediscovered the joys of miniature rocket modelling. I have three kits to build and paint. I also have motors for launches in secluded places.

How about you?

I'm mostly playing on-line now anyway as I'm working overseas.

We weren't playing since the DM got a new baby in december so it doesn't change much... I'll just keep hanging out here and fiddling with my Warlord home-brew.

I opted out of last night's pub game; however, I have been running online a long term Classic Traveller game that is my hard SF homebrew: fusion torch ships and real star maps. Also I am a player in a standard universe Traveller 5 game online. Sort of on the look out for other online games, looking at ads on reddit or fb, etc..

No change for me, Fantasy Grounds.

If you going online, I suggest you use Discord over Skype. I've had a lot less issues with bandwidth etc with Discord. Plus its persistent so you can have channels for in-game and out of game chat, plus ones for posting setting information etc.

Though I know Roll20 is free, if your actually going to use a VTT, I strongly suggest you look around and don't just go with the one that seems most popular.

I have a drawer full of unpainted minis and a new airbrush to play with until the apocalypse is over.

I should take out my airbrush too!

Play by mail with letters written in bodily fluids. Very safe and hygienic.

I've got a ton of unpainted minis as well. Also, I'm still on book 1 of the Dresden Files series, so I have plenty of reading ahead of me. And it's the start of garden season, so I'll be busy in my garden

I am sooo jealous. I wish I could read it again for the first time. One of my absolute favorite series.
