ECMO3's latest activity

I fear cell phones have been overly destructive to society. It is not just them of course, but the ability to have the internet, and all...

Well 18 is a plus 4, that is fine, but how do you get that +3 or +4 to start with? Most players put the "+4" in the big box on the...

I don't play other games, my question is how do those other games randomly generate those scores. Is it like I said 1d6 -3? People...
