    D&D General What alignment are you?

    Neutral Good. I think there are laws I definitely benefit from, but I also think some of the institutions are rotten and in need of an enema. Either way im not compelled to get involved unless folks are in need.

    What constitutes a "hit" in your mind?

    A hit, in a general sense, is just something really popular. People connect to it for some reason. Perhaps its comedic, or maybe a compelling drama, but it has wide genre transcending appeal. Usually, its executed well and noted by critics alike, but there are exceptions. EC is tricky, by my...

    Genre Discussion: Cyberpunk

    My last CP game was a bit of a crapshow because the GM saw it as another reskin of D&D, but we had fun for a time. One player was a 19 year old hacker who grew up more or less on the streets. She learned the ins and outs of tech and was our hacker. My PC was an ex corp security officer. I...

    Streaming services, which do you have or are you getting rid of?

    It must have been lightening fast because I subbed up to Starz just to watch it and found out it wasnt available.

    Battletech Public Playtest Thread

    Game wise or narrative wise? In both senses there is forced withdrawal in which once a mech has lost a good amount of its effectiveness its allowed to retreat from the battlefield. So, a fight to the coring of a mech is a rare kind of fight. Pilots will also punch out well before a coring, and...

    Are you ready for some Football (Americano)!

    All I know so far this season, is that doing well against The Bears is not an indication of anything. It is not safe to say JJ is ready for prime time or that the Lions got it back together.

    Streaming services, which do you have or are you getting rid of?

    Starz was definitely the runt of the streaming litter. However, they had a few great shows like Black Sails, American Gods, Outlander, and Heels.

    Glad you enjoy them! Here in the Twin Cities we have a pretty large and active BT community. Regular pick up games, tournaments, and campaign play are happening just about any night of the week. I've also been told by out of towners that we are really fortunate here in the TC because we have not...
