While I’ve been posting these regularly, this is the first time he had a hiatus. So we just picked this back up in November. It’s getting a bit harder to land headshots on the bigger guys now.

Orcs Must Die 3 #6 – A Night Maze
Well, these levels are finally getting a bit more challenging. This one took a bit of planning for sure.

Torchlight 2 – The OhDeer Party
Had this in the upload bin for a bit, but my brother and I had taken a stab at Torchlight 2 back in the day. We never continued, but it was certainly fun at the time! Maybe I’ll solo and continue.

Orcs Must Die 3 #5 – Giant Traps
So these are a bit harder of the other scenarios that we’ve run across, mostly because it requires a very specific strategy to beat. A few months into the future with that much more footage queued, these things are tricky.

Orcs Must Die 3 #4 – Stop that Kobold
For playing we goofed this one up for the first time, one of us missed a kobold when it ran. But I think we did all right otherwise.

Orcs Must Die 3 #03 – When it Rains, it Pours
So there’s textures for when water hits you now? Fancy. And no, glue in a tube has nothing to do with rift research.

Orcs Must Die 3 #02 – I’ll Stick with the Bow, Thanks
As we continue on, I am sticking with the accurate, lesser-rate-of-fire bow. I kind of regard it as a DMR at this point.
And to throw shade, I think the elven archer from OMD:Unchained had a better fire rate.

Orcs Must Die 3 #01 – Happy Birthday to Me
As a lovely surprise, my brother got me Orcs Must Die 3 for my birthday. The result? That new crowd that loved our co-op videos can now get more of it. I’m slowly working with him to get footage, and uploading it as able. So do stick around for those!

Reddit WritingPrompts – Write a POV from a Recently Hired Scientist
For awhile now, I’ve been playing with various sci-fi scenarios in my head. When I saw this post, I decided to give a stab at an alternate universe I had parsed in my head. I’ve used this same setting in a few other prompts I’ve written, usually revolving around a freelance mercenary group with their own troop carrier.

Victoria Tellison, Armadillo Head Scientist
——
I’ve always wondered why mercenaries with a troop carrier wanted to hire me. Why did they need a scientist like me? Didn’t their tech wizard bug queen know things? Or just look it up on the extranet?
Looks like that was changing.
The last two months Armadillo had been visiting a terraformed planet on the Outer Rim. Some radical space pope went back in time centuries ago, stole people from Earth from the 1800s and set them up to live there. Why? Aside from her own enjoyment, nobody knows.
Reddit WritingPrompts – Can You Fly a JX-7?
The title of this prompt struck me a few ways, and decided to add a bit of intrigue and other stuff to it. It originally was meant to have more than one part, which I unfortunately was never able to finish. I’ll need to do that someday.

Huschens is an Easter Egg nod-off to Angry Cops.

I wrinkled my eyebrows at the person who interrupted me, clearly not enjoying be pulled away from my drink. It was Gunnery Sergeant Huschens; clean chiseled face, camo fatigues and a drill instructor hat. At first his voice sounded official and very commanding, but upon hearing me answer affirmatively, changed to that that half New Jersey accent, ushering me with an informal hand wave.
I sigh heavily, grabbing my cup of coffee and making my way across the hangar.
