Let's kick this new blog off with a new project

I've currently five or six half-baked projects on the go. Some fairly recent (like my Head over Heels tabletop remake) some have been hanging around for literally years (did that electronic gaming platform ever get finished? Well, enough to play some games over the 'net but not evolved into a full gaming platform as once planned).

But as often happens, right in the middle of doing something cool, something cooler comes along and knocks everything into a cocked hat. That happened this week with the news that GW were "re-releasing" their knights-jousting mini game Full Tilt. (https://www.warhammer-community.com/2024/02/14/going-full-tilt-with-a-new-twist-on-the-classic-minigame-on-warhammer/ )
As it's been a while since I've got the old soldering iron out, I figured this would be a great little project to see through to completion as the first project for this (new) blog. From start to finish. It will have everything - electronics, motors, magnetised playing pieces, tracking, a natty little bluetooth integrated app and RFID action cards, as well as cool looking miniatures and lots of customisation and personalisation options. But should be "small enough" to serve as a project to cover all this from end-to-end.

So that's the idea. What's not to love?
