And when is that? I'm 30 posts behind but I can see there's a [CENSORED]storm ahead. This thread has had many distractions. Bedir than made a comment and now a lot of us have latched onto that. Erroneously in my opinion but we're beyond that now. However, you Umbran, a moderator, have been...

The first adventure in the Golden Vault is trash. We played it and at one point one of the Players asked, in ernest, if their Character could spot any surveillance cameras; and the Dungeon Master had the balls to say, "No, of course not, this is a medieval world." This after we walked past the...

You're wrong Umbran. Sometimes it's not an epic battle between good and evil. Often, people get painted as horrible people on these boards because they don't hold the same opinion. We need to make an effort to see people rather than box them into a shape that they do not hold. We need to see...

Thanks. I might give the organized play a go.

Forgive me sir. I don't mean to disparage a Great Master, such is Boris, but he is more of a Rembrandt than a Michelangelo.

I agree. It's stuff like this that makes me long for Daniel Horne. His heroes were usually wielding acres and swords that were believable.

C'mon Umbran, first you make an historical based argument--that didn't work--so now you're making an ahistorical based argument. Yes, the shoes are anachronistic. But, the entire game is ahistorical, so nothing in it is anachronistic. We don't need 1,000 years of elevated shoe history to...
