Happy New Year!
Good afternoon everyone! Here's hoping you all had a great New Year's Midnight last night/this morning. What did you all get up to? And what are your New Year's Resolutions for this year? Mine are:
- Spend as much time as possible loving Vickie.
- Spend as much time with our friends as possible.
- Relax.
And I think everything else I want to do just flows on from those...
As Vickie was working last night, we decided to have New Year in. Before she went to work, Vickie put a selection of nibblies together (Thank you, sweetheart!) for anyone who turned up - which turned out to be Gav, Cameron and Linda. We played a fair bit of Chez Geek, and when Vickie got home, we turned on the TV for the Sydney fireworks display.
Vickie's working this evening as well - she quite understandably didn't want to miss out on the Holiday rates, especially with Jillian coming. We're also going to see about finally seeing The Two Towers this coming Saturday.
The trend of loaning me RPG books has continued lately; Gav loaned me his Star Wars: Power Of The Jedi Sourcebook (it was one of his Christmas pressies). It's a good read; although it has the usual plethora of new classes, races and equipment, it also includes some great material on the history of the Jedi Order and how the Jedi Code is interpreted for a Jedi's life. Good, solid stuff for a campaign!
On the campaigning front, the Heavy Gear campaign is still being formulated, although the miniatures-buying is being put off until March.
I'm also still playing around with the Neverwinter Nights Aurora Toolset. I've completed both the Toolset Tutorial and the Plot Wizard Tutorial, and have been fiddling with the areas created therein. The one-page scenario summary in the Toolset Tutorial contains plenty of hooks for further development, and I'm toying with the idea of expanding the Tutorial module into several areas.
