Apparently WHW have also got a clear calendar for both February and March.

Because I think giving people a choice of eight Saturdays is going to result in choice paralysis, I'm going to narrow that list down to...

- 19th Feb
- 26th Feb
- 5th March
- 12th March

... as potential dates for an IGT. Let me know availablility, and I'll try to narrow down which ones work best for us.

I'm not sure I'd personally handle it quite as virtual play like our standard events, as it becomes a lot more practical to run an intricate narrative if you're not forced to try to ram together as many games in a short time before every one goes home again; you can run one game, take the time to write the next part of the story, then have another session in a week or three.

And yes, I have certainly considered it for How to Play guides. And also yes, I should actually share that stuff on FB.

I need way more practice with TTS but it could be a great way to get more games in - maybe in a virtual event or how-to-play videos

I don't plan on getting into TTS, but a number of folks at Salute mentioned that they were when they stopped by the table - posting the thread link and some of those camera set-up photos could garner a fair bit of interest from the FB pages.

I'm pretty sure I've got a clean calendar for February, so I'm down for that.

Unfortunately, my wrist/hand is still pretty bad, so I've not been able to finish a proper guide myself, but I have seen that Goonhammer has recently published an article series about photogrammetry for Tabletop Simulator.

I'm not sure I necessarily agree with all the method myself - personally I think the photographic set up is quite involved, and I think Zephyr's Masquerade tool is better suited for masking than Photoshop - but I thought I'd share it so others can try it if they like it.

(My own photography method is written up here, and may be a bit more accessible, as it's intended to make use of a simpler backdrop and diffuse natural light. However, the stuff about actually working the programs in the Goonhammer guide should be helpful in its own right).

I don't often end up commenting on these things, because I don't feel I have that much to add, but I wanted to reassure you that this is being read and appreciated!

It's quite the collection now.

If no-one has any big objections, I think I'll look at whether Warhammer World has any free tables in mid-late February and look at organising an IGT. That doesn't put a big load on any one person, and leaves us more room later in the year for other venues or narratives.
