Oh boy, do I have a couple. At first I resisted posting, since it has been a long time since I DM'd (I referred Reebo to this thread.) Thankfully, I have only been guilty of his #6 a couple of times. :) However, here a few of my peeves which cross between player and character. 1) The Hack...

I'm originally from around Cologne, and started some digging and Google-Fu'ing. At a guess, the original chant(s) would have been in a regional dialect of old German, which is akin to old (old) English. And they would have some basis in non-christian tradition, indeed. As an oral tradition...

So, I don't post often, and this may be a slight tangent. Further, I may be missing something entirely... ...but could a Ring of Sustenance work here? It could be interpreted as a relatively inexpensive way to address the requirement of feeding? The wording seems generous enough...

So, our group has returned like wayward children to the world of Earthdawn. We are coming up to our fourth session this weekend, and I have decided to share with you the Journal that I am keeping for my character, in the hope that it will provide you with some entertainment. This is the...

Thanks for the help, guys. :)

May I chime in with a question/query? (or two?) :) I'm also in the process of upgrading my computer, and it was recommended to me to get 2x Galaxy 8800 GT 512mb cards instead of a single 8800 GTS, citing that this would be just below par performance for a 9 series NVidia. My own research seems...

Hey mate, Looks like we are gonna stick with the Earthdawn game for a while, but I'll post back here as soon as we open up D&D to see if you are still interested. :) All the best!

Greetings and Salutations! Due to the vagaries of life, our long running group of gaming friends is seeking some fresh mea... um... new blo... darn it... um...faces... Yes! Fresh faces to join us in our friendly, and excellent escapist escapades. Alliteration not withstanding, we are a bunch...

Heh. Most people do not know that the Soviet union was probably much more advanced in terms of esoteric research and applications than the West during the Cold War. :cool: Also - I think Lloyd Pye covers some aspects of the crystal skulls... or I could be mixing it up with his Starchild stuff.

I can't seem to get to the checkout. >.<

For Dark Fantasy with a comic twist, try 'Grunts' by Mary Gentle, or 'Villains by Necessity' from Eve Forward. Good stuff. The books upon which the game 'The Witcher' is based seem to be quite dark - so that maybe something to check out... if the books are available in English. :) Probably...

Spoilers in here, by way of explanation! Sorry for the delay, Crothian. :) Initially - it was the feel of how part two progressed. I need to spoiler this stuff... hmm, ok Blacktexting: 1) The first instance is the 'repetition' of how Dean sold his soul. I think I understand what the writers...

I watched the two episodes back to back, and although I really like Supernatural, this two parter season ender was too Hollywood for me. Some parts were too cliche, especially in part two. :\ The big attraction that Supernatural has (imho) is that they tend to blur the formula in the...

For a somewhat more mundane approach in 'stopping' the Airship (though this depends on how high Airships fly): Ballistae. Ground mounted, and tethered either to big trees, boulders or immovable rods. Shoot the bolt to penetrate the hull (have them spring loaded so that they effectively...
