W niedzielę 30.04.2023 tak się stało, Cornholio sprawił, że graliśmy w Pasażu Grunwaldzkim bitwę o Helmowy Jar. I zagraliśmy, był to festiwal mangi i anime, mnóstwo osób odgrywało różne role w Cosplay, a my z Łukaszem odgrywaliśmy nas, graczy, którzy w najważniejszym momencie na kości K6 rzucają 1. Mieliśmy trochę ulotek z miejsca w którym zawsze gramy i mieliśmy okazję rozmawiać z różnymi ludźmi, byli wśród nich fani twórczości Tolkiena, fani gier RPG którzy dowiedzieli się o nocy tych systemów w Bolterze.

On Sunday of 30.04.2023 it happend, with Cornholio we played in Pasaż Grunwaldzki battle of Helm’s Deep. We played, there was a lot of manga and anime, many Cosplayers and me and Łukasz playing as gamers, players who rolls in most important moments on D6 – 1. We had some hundresds of leaflets from place we play and we had many occasions to talk with different ppl, among them were fans of Tolkien, fans of RPG’s who were informed that there are nights of RPG in Bolter and among other events there.

Aragorn, Gimli, Legolas.

Mur został wysadzony, ale brakło nam waty by to ukazać. Wall was blown up, but we hadn’t had cotton to show effect.
Three drunkers 😉 .

Summary:
– it was great to be there anyway, but I see that I’m to shy for such events.
– it was manga, anime and one of the greatest tabletop system Middle Earth: SBG – Cornholio and Tancred, it was great!


Podsumowanie:
– było świetnie być tutaj, ale nadal widzę, że dla takich wydarzeń jestem po prostu wycofany.
– tam była manga, anime i jeden z najlepszych systemów bitewnych – Middle Earth: SBG – Cornholio i Tancred, to było świetne!

Merry Christmas! Wesołych Świąt Bożego Narodzenia! Czwartek, Gru 22 2022 

Lower Silesia and Poland tancreddebeauville 23:41

Hey! I wish you all Merry Christmas! For you, your families, your friends, your neighbours, your co-workers, your employers – current ones and previous! Health, wealth and peace! Wish peace to places where there are no peace – wish it to Jemen, Palestine, normality to Iranians, peace to neighbours of Poland – to Russia and Ukraine and they citizens. Wish all of us wise politicians ruling people who vote on them – in Poland, in United States of America, in European countries who are members of EU and abroad – like Australia, Argenita, Brasilia, New Zealand and others. Despite most differences most of the normal people can be friends despite nationality, religion, views, history and skin colour – and go together to play something or to drink beer 😉 . Lords and Ladies – wish you everything the best!

Hej! Życzę wszystkim Wesołych Świąt Bożego Narodzenia, dla was, waszych rodzin, przyjaciół, sąsiadów, współpracowników, waszych pracodawców – obecnych i przeszłych! Zdrowia, zamożności i pokoju! Życzę pokoju tam, gdzie go nie ma – Jemenowi, Palestynie, normalności Irańczykom, pokoju sąsiadom Polski – Rosji i Ukrainie i ich obywatelom. Życzę nam wszystkim rozsądnych polityków rządzących ludźmi którzy na nich głosują – Polsce, Stanom Zjednoczonym, krajom wchodzącym w skład UE i pozostałym jak – Australii, Argentynie, Brazylii, Nowej Zelandii i reszcie. Mimo wielu różnic większość zwykłych ludzi może przyjaźnić się mimo różnych narodowości, religii, poglądów, historii czy koloru skóry – i pójść razem pograć czy napić się piwa 😉 . Panowie i Panie – życzę wam wszystkiego najlepszego!

Most beautiful Polish Christmas Carol. Najpiękniejsza polska kolęda.
Czerwone Gitary old Polish rock band – Jest Taki dzień – There is such a day, beautiful song. Czerwone Gitary, stary polski rock – nic więcej nie dodam.
Do we are enemies? I think not, the main problem is people over us. Czy my jesteśmy wrogami? Myślę, że nie, głównym problemem są ludzie ponad nami.

 

A journey to the north: beautiful Gdynia Wtorek, Sier 10 2021 

Poland and Pomerania tancreddebeauville 18:44

Last Friday I took one more day to start my holidays (thank you Piotrek) to travel north, to city of my friends – Gdynia. I had to go on Friday, as I’m creature of night and have problems with waking in the early morning – plus travel from Wrocław to Gdynia by train long lasts five and half hour. I wanted to be fresh on tournament in Warhammer Fantasy Battle in Rumia next day. Those tournaments were making me tired twenty years ago, so now it cannot be better. I was there for three days and it was great travel. I can recommed Gdynia for everyone – it’s great Polish city and one of the youngest.

  • Bed & Breakfast Żeglarz – really nice place in Witomino.
  • Witomino, district for live – east to centre of Gdynia.
  • There so many green areas, not like in my belowed Wrocław.
  • There were events in the city – running, biking and probably something else. No runner was catched by my camera.
  • Sport school with mural.
  • Modernistic church and it tower.
  • Aww, model stopped me.
  • One of the main streets. My Bretonnians have the same liveries as Gdynia’s buses and trolleybuses.
  • Older building – remember that Gdynia is really new Polish city and has city rights from 10 February 1926, before Gdynia was village. Polish 2nd Republic had access to sea, but without harbor – Gdańsk was free city, but generally it was German.
  • Some modernistic and older buldings.
  • I love those city, it’s infrastructure.
  • HQ of Polish Navy.
  • I guess that this is dedicated to our Bałtyk Sea.
  • Everything we can do on the sea – there are trading aspects, fishing – don’t remember all.
  • Biggest sacrifice and spilled blood will become a living testimony to the existence at the Polish seaside. 20.09.1939 admiral Józef Unrug.
  • Modern building next to the harbor.
  • John Paul IInd was here.
  • Polish submarine Orzeł – still his fate is uknown to us.
  • Destroyer „ORP Błyskawica”.
  • Dar Pomorza – ship museum.
  • I guess it can be a way to meet Svetlana in Baltijsk – Russian city, still need to think about VISA to Russia.
  • Some touristic vessel stylized probably on a warship from XVI/XVII century.
  • Another monument in the harbor.
  • Entrance to the harbor.
  • City beach in Gdynia.
  • Destroyer Błyskawica – for many years museum.
  • Dar Pomorza’s model.
  • Burza, Błyskawica, Grom, Wicher – Polish 2nd republic destroyers. Most of them were evacuated to Great Britain. Wicher fought valiantly during German invasion and was sunk near Hel on 3rd of Semptember 1939.
  • Błyskawica (Lighting bolt).
  • Magic gate to better world.
  • Cafe Strych – fisherman hut. Thank you Paweł for showing this place. We had great afterparty here – with ppl from Three Cities and Warsowia.
  • And the pub inside it called Cafe Strych.
  • They have crafts in great prize of 12,50 PLN.
  • It was build around 1890 – near coastline. Now coastline is far away from hut.
  • Going to the hotel.
  • Day later – Gdańsk Główny, where I meet friends who traveled on bikes all Polish coast .
  • Looks like part of fortifications from past.

 

Almost like Kingdom Come: Deliverance Środa, Lip 28 2021 

Lower Silesia and Poland tancreddebeauville 23:03

On Thurdsay we meet with Egor in Graciarnia – he proposed a journey to Trójgarb hill, I agreed that I will think about and agree. Then I asked few friends if they want to go – only Miłosz answered yes on Saturday. We travelled with Egor as a driver to Trójgarb and to castle Cisy. By accident we were on event there – event in Cisy. It was a great trip last Sunday, thank you Egor and Miłosz – just wanted to publish those photos – to maybe share that event to the others – Poles as well as foreigns. It was combined Polish-Russian trip, wish more.

  • Somewhere in Lower Silesia, Poland.
  • Struga village in the Lower Silesia, parking where I found breakfast – good one – sausage plus some bread and mustard.
  • Thinking about respirator.
  • Unhapilly only in Polish.
  • After four or five levels I give up, I guess I have fear of heights – that space beetwen a stairs was a problem.
  • Going down that hill.
  • I suppose that something was there, probably some house – wooden one on top.
  • Felt like in medieval Europe.
  • Without cars, this photo could be almost medieval.
  • Shields, swords, bows – hapilly no Mongols 😉 .
  • Camp – like camps in Kingdom Come: Deliverance.
  • Resting place of many ppl playing medieval roles.
  • Walk back, to go to Cisy Castle ruins.
  • Witch shop – friendly witch.
  • Still better than that steel tower.
  • Cisy received a moat again.
  • What can I say – just look and go down.
  • Cellar under it – without flamethrower you will no go inside.
  • Castle Książ.
