Ah. I did PVR it and when I brought it up on demand, the on demand version cut off at the same time. So I found the last ten elsewhere.

Each episode has gotten better and better. E6 was darker than I expected, but very compellingly done. Well ... there's other options. I'm still annoyed that E4 cut off the last 10 minutes when it was broadcast.

I tend to have eggs for breakfast. I regularly make scrambled eggs with grated cheese served over toast. I also like poaching them, and can make a solid Eggs Benedict for special occasions. If I'm frying an egg, I generally go for a crispy edged egg, often flipped. Omlettes ... mainly a western...

Conceivably. Telekinesis is in Arcana, and yeah, Grace hits some notes that an Empath/Telepath would have. Admittedly, this meant I didn't even make a "Psion" class ... I'd have a Telepath class with Psionic + Grace, Metamorph with Psionic + Bone as a start. Arguably one could try to do a Psion...

Truth. I've been noodling around an Eberron conversion for Daggerheart, and been playing with a Creation Domain for an Artificer class and a Psionic Domain ... because I like Psionics ... and it's been a challenge. I can see why the team is taking their time adding additional domains and why...

Yes and no. The downside, which was pointed out by the designers themselves, is how much front-loading and increased complexity open domain choice becomes, as players have to weigh which set of 21 cards to have access to during character generation. I really like how beginner friendly...

So, as I noted, I played the OG Maverick in a short lived Campaign that felt ... interesting but limited. Do people think the new Maverick works better, or is it still underpowered?

That's explicitly part of Vance's pitch to Ake, so no doubt that was part of his thought process while staffing the Academy. Anyway, Episode 5 was both delightful and destroying. Considering my fits of giggling over the opening, and then to be weeping at the end? Bravo Starfleet Academy, I'm...

I mean, technically, Jett Reno is 980 years old.

I started with 3.5 DnD. And, tbh, I've seen every iteration since as an improvement. I have affection for 3.5, and I find it fun ... as a charop, char gen game, but my first attempt to DM it was disastrous, and table play isn't as good. Like, it's a game that's more theoretically fun than...

We've all seen the Dolores from HR cosplay skits, right? If not, enjoy ... https://www.instagram.com/reel/CePAvHhJRSA/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== https://www.instagram.com/reel/CeKd2ftBeKV/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==

Is Exploring Eberron going to be updated for those that bought the PDF, but not the DnD Beyond version? I tried the old Maverick and found it wanting, in general, a caster-focused subclass stapled to a half-caster felt really weak. But that's a shame, it is, conceptually, one of my fav...

It'll be interesting to see what comes from Star Wars: Starfighter, but that, or the abandoned Rogue Squadron movie that Patty Jenkins was working on are definitely the core of a show I could see working. Star Wars but Top Gun, in other words. Elements from the Rogue and Wraith squadron legacy...

"Don't try to frighten us with your sorcerer's ways, Lord Vader. Your devotion to that ancient religion has not helped you conjure up the stolen data tapes, or given you clairvoyance enough to find the Rebel's ... <ack> ... and now HR is involved" "Your tauntaun will freeze before you reach the...

It's a trap! And now HR is involved!
