Sensei Kolakoski

Posted April 11th, 2018 at 10:13 AM by kolakoski

Well met!

I've been studying Karate for 22 years. I've occasionally commented upon it herein (see
Heroscape & Karate - Martial Arts, Birthday Meditation, All Good Things Must . . .) Last week, I promoted to Sensei (4th degree Black Belt) in Kenshikai Karate.

Below is an extract from my promotion essay:

I did not begin studying Karate until I was 46 years old. I had only recently begun to work out, after meeting and marrying (six years previously) my wife, Babs, who had recently become an instructor at the Vanderbilt YMCA. Karate was initially a way to learn the basics of working out - how to move myself, and some light weights and cables, efficiently, such that I didn't hurt my previously sedentary self, but it soon became much more than that, its lessons

Well met!

Here’s a custom I've been working on, with help from various members of the Community, most notably
BiggaBullfrog, Tornado, and Drewman-chu. Card thanks to Dr. Goomonkey.




I'm hoping to have playtested him enough to present him for SoV consideration when his mini is available in quantity (May release).









For 4/18: First game with Sherman Davies' pre-set armies, featuring his customs.

Come 'Scape With Us!

Posted November 1st, 2017 at 11:05 AM by kolakoski

Well met!

Thanks to chas for coming out Saturday for the Come 'Scape With Us! event at the Senior Center here on Roosevelt Island. The turnout was sparse, but quality.



Meet our new friend, Al. Our event took place during our annual Halloween Parade, thus the hat.




I free built this map for the event, and laid out nine or ten 300 point armies.







Al did a fair job (ably coached by chas) with Kaemon, Shiori, and the Tagawa Samurai, against my standard Roman army - Marcus, Me-Burq-Sa, and three squads of Legionnaires.
