If you don't mind, and this is not a gotcha question: if the difference between optimizer and munchkin is pedantic where is your preferred line? For example I am making a character for your game or as a fellow player and I decided on a warlock. At what point is it going to bug you: I put my...

Doh. And I liked up the title b posting. Thanks for the correction

Mine was F4 and superman (due to my wife). But then, just this week, we became aware of Abraham's sons. That jumped to number 1 very quickly.

He was also in Rambo type movie called Ruckus that came out in 1981 a year before Rambo I believe.

Yeah, I know. I worked in my university library periodicals section back in the 90s, and saw how they charged them mag subscriptions based on "approximate readership". From the librarians here on the site I can tell it is that same type of logic. I appreciate the books I can get off Libby...

I could have a lot of this myself. Then the wife and I went to B&N to browse a few weeks ago. The paperbacks I was use to were $9.99 and I could tell trying to read the print would be torture. But most of the books vin the shelves were trade paperback style and they were between $14.99 and...

Whenever 2 posters start arguing about the meaning of a word when everyone knows what was meant anyway.

Ha Ha. Oops I did the same thing (pdf level). I really don't need 300 pages of rules for shadowdark but all the stuff that's included will keep me entertained for a long time.

WEG STAR WARS MARVEL FASRIP

Agreed. I am a looking at using the 5e Spelljammer rules in Shadowdark. I like the minimalist nature of the 5E Spelljammer campaign book. I'm also looking forward to the city based Cursed Scroll.

That's awesome and up to a couple of years ago I was doing it the same way. But after watching some great COC live plays I have changed my approach. Watching the keeper tell someone "Sure you can try, give me an extreme success" and see the tension when the player realizes that is a 12%chance...

My wife got hit by a brown recluse, yeah not fun. And I kid you not in addition to the normal painful treatments it triggered an adult onset allergy to riice, eggs. And raspberries.

So, ever see the original Clash of the Titans? Poor guy has no idea how to beat the Kraken, his only clue is that some evil witches might know. So he has to figure out how to get the information from them. Maybe your group has to deal with someone who is unsavory who can tell them but will...

If season two is titled Devil's Reign like it should be and they mirror the comics then we should see at least the other street level heroes. We already have Punisher and Swordsman in lockup, that should make it easy to bring in Kate. Echo, Luke and Jessica are around somewhere. So we will see.

My worry is that this is just their way to tip the hat to the original x X-Men actors (plus gambit) and then send them off into void. I think they will be in this less than the Illuminati was in Dr Strange.
