#Hobbystreak day 1296-7

School #WarhammerAlliance yesterday. Worked on a presentation to show the work we do for #Student #MentalHealth.

Today I printed some shit in school, and spent a pile of time getting the supports off 😆 maybe I should take it easier with the printers.

#HobbyStreak day 1282

Anti #Warhammer evening in the school #WarhammerAlliance - students get the opportunity to play #BoardGame s, #TCG s and #RPG s (or build their #Bandai stuff) every other month.

I was drafted into the Game of Life, in which capitalism was gracelessly won by the pop star with his ginormous income. With the rest being steward, teacher and vet the outcome was unsurprising 😆

#TeachersWhoGame #Gaming #DnD

Four people (and me )seated at a table playing the game of life. If you were to Zoom in coma you would be able to see that the majority of cars are occupied by gay couples or furriesFour students playing DnD, from the perspective of the DM. 

Almost all are seated except for the kid with ADHDThe d&d table from the other end. The kid with ADHD is stood up to demonstrate to me how they cut the butthole of a monster they encountered.The shyest kid in the group had been working on their Power Ranger. 

I will admit it's not really a Power Ranger but I keep on forgetting this stuff because it's humanoid robots from Japan swords and guns and they're made by Bandai. I'm a bad teacher because I'm not interested is why I forget.

#HobbyStreak day 1275 (Mon)

School #WarhammerAlliance for the first time in 4 weeks due to holidays.

Finished a game of #BloodBowl against the student who will do infuriating shit with Elves and only roll exactly what she needs and NEVER FAIL A SINGLE THING. #nuffle loves her.

Then I taught the game to two other students who heard me cussing and swearing and thought it might be fun. I pity the fools...

Short article about the #MentalHealth and student retention effects of our school #WarhammerAlliance in our intermediate vocational institution.

#HobbyStreak day 1249

Still recovering from last night.

Drove across the north to pick up two colleagues, then made the drive to Utrecht, to pitch our school #WarhammerAlliance for a pro jury for the National #Education team of the year election.

We aimed to inspire more people to start similar clubs to combat #Loneliness in students, which we did very much!

Didn't make top 3, but still very proud!

#HobbyStreak day 1227

#School #WarhammerAlliance and it was anti-Warhammer evening (free-for-all) so I brought a #Mordheim Arena variant for the students who have yet to know the joy of #Wargaming.

Of course, it being Mordheim, I had to explain every dice roll because there are so many, but I had them go at each other one on one and they had fun!

#HobbyStreak day 1213

School #WarhammerAlliance - lots of running around while getting a bunch of really passive bastards off their phones and onto making #Frostgrave warbands.

Taught them how to do a #zenithal primer and follow that with #Vallejo #ExpressPaints for quick results, and how to apply basing sand.

In the meantime I painted the basis of a dwarven airship for #ageofsigmar

#WarhammerAlliance night. Two students who were endlessly mucking about with an #Arduino all right told to just finalise because it worked and they suddenly wanted to play #BloodBowl; three more who never play games but only do #MiniPainting I sounded for interest – they ended up drawing #Frostgrave warbands for next week; a third set were taught #KillTeam by an insecure fellow student.

💪🏼

Final, exciting #BloodBowl7s league night in the #WarhammerAlliance!

#Skaven demolished #ProElves, #Norse rekt #Dorfs, frontrunner chaos missed the evening because of illness, a new guy standing in for them beat the other frontrunner on a #necromantic mirror, and bottom table #vampires drew against frontrunner #Lizardmen!

#BloodBowl7s league night in the #WarhammerAlliance

Four of the teams are in the 40s for points - 20/10/0 (W/D/L) with 5 bonus points max for touchdowns and casualties is a good discerning ruleset. Chaos are one and also leading on casualties AND fouls!

Also, 1 student is building the Battle of Stamford Bridge at scale 😱

#BloodBowl7s league night in the #WarhammerAlliance

In a completely unsurprising chain of events #Lizardmen are leading the league tables, while #Chaos are leading the casualty tables. Both are followed hot on their heels by a very belligerent #necromantic horror.

A #skaven gutter runner died. It was a good night.

#TeachersWhoGame #Wargaming #Terrain #WargameTerrain #TerrainWIP #TerrainBuilding #MiniaturePainting #Miniature #TabletopSports #BloodBowl #OnTheBall

Dwarves vs lizardmen. The dwarves are going nowhere as they should. Player got a bloody nose, putting that blood in blood bowlNecromantic versus skaven.

This is from before there being more skaven in the knocked out and dead and injured box then on the pitch. It was more beautiful than poetry in a paintingSkaven Rat Ogre receiving a boot in the neck and being knocked out for the rest of the game. This was more beautiful than seeing my second daughter be born.

Monday was #WarhammerAlliance evening, played #werewolves with the students and had a flat tyre when I wanted to drive home.

Tuesday was a stressful day in school and I rekt the gear shifter on my bike when riding home. Painted a therapy #RangersOfShadowDeep ogre.

Tonight I worked on my #TrenchCrusade bunker with my trial paint scheme. No traffic issues.

The thing is looking angry in itself and they've painted the skin in Gray, armour plates brown with cyan highlights, and cloth red.

Started the #WarhammerAlliance #BloodBowl7s rookie League.

Four games played which ended in three draws. Lizardmen are leading the overall tables with the most points and Chaos Chosen are leading the casualty tables with a shocking three against Necro.

No pics because I was too busy to take en.

The school's Warhammer Alliance club finally had its first lesson in how to play Warhammer 40k yesterday. We had 10 students playing and 2 observing. Each student played a single model—either an Assault Intercessor or a Necron Warrior. I only taught the basic rules for moving and attacking because the sessions are only 30 minutes long. Most students picked it up quickly and are eager to have another go.

@dmrandyransom bring it on! I've actually started the following hashtags for visibility: #WarhammerAlliance #TeachersWhoGame #TeachersWhoPaint

Ofc we may be the nichest niche persons in a niche interest😂, but hey, sometimes finding one another can be valuable

2024-12-19

sooo I'm starting a #BloodBowl7s league in the school #WarhammerAlliance this January. One student wants to play Lizardmen. I told him he could borrow my team.

Got a message today that he's #sculpting his own in #blender3d

This is interesting. Hoping he'll manage to finish it before we start in just under a month.

Hobby Streak day 1130

School #WarhammerAlliance

Played another game of #BloodBowl7s with my student G--. I stil had my Chaos Renegade team in my car from yesterday's tournament, so I faced his necro with them. He told me not to play dumbed down and the result was a rude 3-1 because I pulled all the stops on bullshit plays. Lots of removals, brutal game. Kid shows a lot of promise tho.

- #3DPrinting gave me another 2 paint trays in school, but someone fkn ripped one out when they deemed it finished — reader, it wasn't, so it's not stackable;
- worked on secret Santa #BloodBowl giant;
- closed up slots in the bases of my #Mordheim warband.

Also envious of a mate's #TrenchCrusade board plan

School #WarhammerAlliance and I was the only staff member there because of illness. Taught one student how to use the #airbrush and played aa game of #BloodBowl against another.

My all orc lineman against overpowered necro. The kid has played chess a lot when he was younger so he saw opportunities aplenty
