Another one from the archives. Commission from @WeenOfficial for a thing called 'raloi' from Mass Effect universe, so I could stop using a sneakily cropped picture of a nevrean.
Stopped using the character this year because of moving on from the circumstances where he was used. Oh well!
The mercenaries slugging it out on the 28th century of far future was not my first game, oh no. There also existed a Risk-like boardgame iteration in the ‘franchise’ as it were, circa 2012-2014 timeframe when I was in the polytechnic university. Social aspects with players making and breaking alliances, funding, units with health and dice and so on and so on...
(Translation: Game of Empires, Empire Game. Intention of conveying a game played by great powers.)
I’ve been struck by envy, envy of other more accomplished creatives exhibiting their works! So I must put the effort to show mine too. It’s bit harder when one’s output leans to the literary while artistry remains confined to the margins of notebooks.
Nevertheless.
We must go to further than a decade away, to hazy years of high school (here in Finland, junior high being the 7th to 9th grades, followed by senior high, gymnasium, from where one graduates as baccalaureate if they didn’t opt for vocational school). I had loaned a Rogue Trader rulebook from the library and were struck by inspiration...to make my own game! Mostly. Loaning hard from Rogue Trader still mechanically.
