Assault on the Bandit Leaders
After spending a few days in Restenford, Aegon and Rose have assembled a new party to once again return to the Bandit Camp. They stand before Tazok’s tent, visions of death swirling in Aegon’s mind. They don’t know what they will encounter inside, but this time they will be prepared.
Phaeng Waterfall Nature Trail
This scenic waterfall trail is one of many places you can hike on Koh Phangan island. While it wasn’t really flowing due to us being there at the beginning of the rainy season, we still took the time to explore some of the more natural parts of this party island.
Western Press: An Empty World
Set in the Wild Wild West, Western Press is a game focused on pistol duelling. You need to be quick on the draw at dawn, at dusk, or at any other time.
Finishing Up the New Moths
I’ve been adding even more moths to the mod ready for the next release. Some of these have custom behaviours and others don’t. I also contemplate adding butterfly breeding, so that players can artificially increase the number of butterflies in their farms.
It’s Always the Woman’s Fault
Recently I attended a movie night at the Belgian Club in Vientiane. This month they have been showing various animated films. Last week they showed Richard Linklater’s Waking Life. This week they showed a Polish film called ‘Chlopi’, or ‘The Peasants’ in English.
Return to the Sword Coast
The Troupe have finally solved the Troubles in Restenford and have been returned to the Song of the Morning Temple in Beregost. It has been a few days since the last assault on the Bandit Camp, so now Aegon seeks to gather a party and finish what he started.
The Animals of Koh Phangan
When you travel around any country, especially a country with a different climate than your own, you will encounter many new animals. These animals, though mundane to the locals, can be exciting to see for any tourist.
RISK: Global Domination
The classic board game brought to Steam. It’s a fun, if frustrating experience. After a steep learning curve I started to get a handle on the game, but I’ve still a ways to go.
Moths, Moths, and More Moths
I’ve spent this week adding as many moths to the mod as I can. Each new moth led to a few little changes to either fix bugs I found along the way, or to add a new behaviour for the moth.
