I don't even know who the players are anymore, I haven't been paying attention since the rise and fall of the Minshuto, and this doesn't seem nearly as cataclysmic for the LDP.

But again, haven't really been paying attention.

Back to the hex and counter thing, with a bunch of things going on that are hopefully explained by a tooltip that has a bunch of numbers including die rolls and percentages

Progress.

Hex-and-counters, probably would be a bloodbath at Tarawa if I'd actually implemented actual firing

a very complicated picture of a game interface with a hex map with lots of shapes and lines and square counters of Japanese and Chinese national symbols, a bunker with SNLF squads and a Type 92 HMG expanded

M13 Great Hercules Cluster and NGC6207 (True Color) - AstroBin It's the Great Globular Cluster in Hercules!  That's it!  That's the description. Honestly don't really have much else to say about it.  (I could complain about the recent spring weather, I guess, bu...

NGC4565 Needle Galaxy in true color. First image with the Edge 925HD on the EQ6-R Pro; a lot of teething issues getting things working properly and a lot of bad weather slowing things down. The stars look like crap, but the galaxy itself looks fine. app.astrobin.com/u/doubt72?i=...

M53 + NGC5053 (True Color) - AstroBin Not everything this time of year is galaxies. These make a nice pair; M53 is one of the farthest globular clusters in the Milky Way's halo, and there's evidence that NGC5053 and M53 have interacted i...

M53 and NGC5053 in true color. Probably should have posted this weeks ago, but time to start catching up. Weather's been terrible lately so things have been going slowly, but that's spring in Colorado for you. app.astrobin.com/i/8qf1ub

M81 Bode's Galaxy + M82 Cigar Galaxy (HɑRGB), TEC140 edition - AstroBin Galaxy season, the bane of rich field scopes.  But there are a still a few good targets, or more precisely, combinations of targets. Weather has been crap, took a month to get ~30 hours of data.  I'l...

M81 (Bode's Galaxy) and M82 (Cigar Galaxy) in HɑRGB. Got a fair amount of IFN in this one; it was difficult to process and probably will take another whack at it at some point, but otherwise about as good as 29 hours can get in Bortle 5 skies. app.astrobin.com/u/doubt72?i=...

NGC2237-9, 2244, 2246 Rosette Nebula (Narrowband SHO + True Color Stars) - AstroBin Early 2025 TEC-140 edition. Could have stood to put a bit more data into this, but it's late and running out of sky for it, so just calling it good.  But also, because it's the Rosette Nebula (i.e., ...

Rosette Nebula in SHO with true color stars. Relatively low amount of time on target (it's another target that's starting to go away), but Rosette is bright and thus a forgiving target for that. app.astrobin.com/u/doubt72?i=...

M41 Little Beehive (HɑRGB w/Tri-Vane Mask) - AstroBin M41, The Little Beehive Cluster in Canis Major, another star cluster with the 3d-printed tri-vane mask.  This one, though, has a lot of interesting Hɑ in the neighborhood. ...it probably could use a ...

M41 (Little Beehive) in HɑRGB. Another one with the tri-vane mask. Not enough Hɑ data, but it's another target I started on too late because the rig wasn't up and running yet. app.astrobin.com/u/doubt72?i=...

NGC2403 (HɑRBG) - AstroBin Kind of a test, wasn't quite into galaxy season when I started on this, and it's a bit smaller and more difficult than I might like (for the TEC140, anyway -- it doesn't quite have the reach.  I'm, uh...

NGC2403 in HɑRGB. This one came out kind of mid, could probably get a better version of this and will maybe try to next year. app.astrobin.com/u/doubt72?i=...

M44 Beehive Cluster (True Color w/Tri-Vane Mask) - AstroBin This is Messier 44, the Beehive Cluster (also known as Praesepe).  I really like star clusters, but they are admittedly not the most spectacular of astrophotography targets, particularly not loose one...

M44 (Beehive/Praesepe) in true color (with a 3d-printed tri-vane mask over the aperture). Star clusters can be kind of boring (particularly loose ones), but something like that can zhuzh the place up a bit. app.astrobin.com/u/doubt72?i=...

IC1848 (Soul Nebula) in SHO with true color stars. Though this was the last image I'd be doing for a while when my camera died, but then it mysteriously came back from the dead several days later. Ah, well, going to call this good and move on. app.astrobin.com/u/doubt72?i=...

Twitter is dead to me. We'll see if this sticks (I'm skeptical I want it to).
