Tabletop Games of Past

Introduction As of the 27th of this month, 2 Generations Gaming will be 10 years old. We’ve written 772 posts (this makes 773), released 93 podcast episodes, and recorded a bunch of videos. That’s an awful lot of talking to ourselves. And yet, I continue to write and record. In fact, I have the final […]

Dungeons and Dinosaurs: Gaming with Quinn (Redux)

Only half of that title is correct. When playing, we definitely encountered dinosaurs (more on that later), we found no dungeons. I just found the term Dungeons and Dinosaurs funny. Probably funnier than it actually merits, but it’s my party and I’ll laugh hysterically if I want to. Those who follow the page know that

My First Time……Playing MTG. (Redux)

My first game was actually pretty memorable but not because of the game itself, but because it was on the day of the Boston Marathon Bombing. A friend had asked me a few weeks earlier if I was interested in trying out the game. He had played it back in his middle/high school years and

Warhammer Age of Sigmar 8 Paint Update

Introduction Another paint update comes with Warhammer Age of Sigmar 8. Next time, or maybe the time after that, we build a new model.

Battle Report 3: Warhammer Age of Sigmar 6

Introduction I painted the new models two weeks ago. Then, I missed last week’s deadline to play with the new rules. Therefore, battle report 3 for my Warhammer game waited until this week. I just finished playing through the scenario and realized that I need to be more careful when playing this game. As a

Marvel RPG Then and Now

Introduction When I came up with the cheeky theme for this month for the page, I tried to also come up with ideas for content. In one of the first articles that I considered, I wanted to compare Marvel RPG Then and Now. Ideally, that meant playing both RPGs with my family and then writing

Battle Report 2: Warhammer Age of Sigmar 5

Introduction It’s that time again. I finished building and doing preliminary paints on another model. With that model and some of the others, I played through another scenario. So, along with it, I need to write the battle report 2 for Warhammer Age of Sigmar. I just realized that I forgot to get a picture

Battle Report 1: Warhammer Age of Sigmar 4

Introduction Those who follow the page regularly (welcome back to all 6 of you!) know that I spent the better part of the last 10 years wishing that I knew how to play miniature games. Chris, the boys, and I dabbled in Heroclix and Dicemasters, but I never took the plunge into the traditional powerhouse,
