Space Station Zero Mission Eleven: The Weapons Locker

Two Muppets. Two drones. As a much more famous space pirate once said, "I have a bad feeling about this".

Space Station Zero Mission Ten: The Greenhouse

Two Muppets enter the Greenhouse, but how many will leave? Read on...

Space Station Zero Mission Nine: Chemical Lab

After almost a month off, the remaining Muppets are back exploring another deadly room in the massive space station.

Alien: Fate of the Nostromo

We have Amazon to thank for this.

Space Station Zero Mission Eight: Environmental Control Room

Once again, apologies for the paucity of posts this month. Work has been getting in the way, but thanks to our benevolent corporate overlords cutting our hours back by a frankly ridiculous amount given Christmas is coming up, I should have more time next week to update the blog and comment on others.

Space Station Zero Mission Seven: Disused Bay

Can the four remaining Muppets survive this mission? Read on to find out!

Space Station Zero Mission Six: The Science Lab

When we left the Muppets last time they'd survived a virus bomb, mutants and two huge gun turrets only to have the floor collapse under them, sending the crew plummeting into the Science Lab!

Space Station Zero Mission Five: Pod 6

I'm on the Space Station Zero Reddit and Facebook groups, and Pod 6 is the mission I've heard the most about. It's supposed to be one of the toughest levels to defeat and people have reported losing crew members left, right and centre on this level, including one guy who had six of his seven crew killed. Gulp.

Space Station Zero Mission Four: The Darkened Hallway

"The Darkened Hallway" is a bit of a boring name for a level. Why not Hallway of Horror? Corridor of Consternation? Passage of Pain? Wait, that last one makes it sound like the crew went out for a vindaloo last night.

Space Station Zero Mission Three: Fabrication Bay

Mission 3 was a blinding success for the Muppets, with only one slight problem marring their victory.

Space Station Zero Mission Two: The Repair Bay

I'm treating my first game of Space Station Zero as a training exercise, not only for the seven wallies who make up my team but also for the wally in charge, i.e. me. At the end of the first mission I rolled against a table and got a four, so next up is the Repair Bay!

Space Station Zero: The first game


Well this was a massacre. I need a name for my team and right now The Muppets seems apt.

The scenic route to a game

In a twist of irony I've been absent thanks to being busy making a ton of scenery.

Cultists of Hastur

I gave up on these guys back at the end of Monster May(hem). I couldn't get Hastur painted right, so I didn't see the point of having a go at his merry band of followers. But then I decided to try something different...

Taking a look at Cthulhu: Death May Die Season 2

I have a few shreds of sanity left after Monster May(hem) and it's not like I need them, so why not?

Monster May(hem): Hastur...oh, Hastur

I think I went a monster too far. Why couldn't Robert W. Chambers have written The King In Literally Any Colour Except Yellow?

Monster May(hem): Wilbur Whateley

Imagine bumping into this in the bucolic New England countryside.

Monster May(hem): Cthulhu and Cultists

Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu... aw crap, I used the same first line last year. Let me come up with something else.

[thinks for a couple of minutes]

OK, let's just move on.

Monster May(hem): Yog-Sothoth

Yog-Sothoth knows the gate. Yog-Sothoth is the gate. Yog-Sothoth is the key and guardian of the gate. Past, present, future, all are one in Yog-Sothoth. He knows where the Old Ones broke through of old, and where They shall break through again.
