We just got home. I enjoyed the movie VERY MUCH. Will Smith did an excellent job. The scene where he's yelling at Frank is absolutely terrifying. Being that alone makes you crazy, man. My only complaint is that I wish we would have been introduced to Anna and Ethan (those were their names...

The book was on the shelf at my local Book-a-Million. I skimmed most of it and loved what I saw... the Dragonborn look FANTASTICLY BADASS. As a girlie girl, I loved the more delicate look of the female dwarves. Very appealing. However, my first 4e character is SO going to be a Halfling...

Very nice! I especially like Flindel. Keep 'em coming!

Well. In 1934, there were not supers. Also - there was no alien invasion. ;) So, not everything is as it was. What is more, we are told that there are not "a few million other soldiers" left. A substantial portion of the world's population has been wiped out... and that population all...

The Germans seem to be the only people that now, only hours into the attack, have any hope of organizing any sort of resistance. For the most part, the aliens have already won. They are, without a doubt, in control. But, even then, they appear to be in a position much like the remainer of...

That's an excellent point, Telsar... there's not a lot stopping us from TRYING to fight and then, if necessary, giving up and heading to THE FUTURE. Of course, right now, some of the players would argue that we've reached that point already. The foes are simply too strong... it takes the might...

Tarot's visions aren't FOR SURE. They're POSSIBLE futures. The problem with the bio-war is that the aliens pretty much stay in their less-vulnerable shells because, it would seem, they are aware of their weakness. Smart little buggers, they are.

Two of our characters fought as young men in WWI and have a hatred of ze Germans.

As a side note: I'm pretty sure the GM wants us to head to THE FUTURE. We are free to stay in the present, but it'll be a difficult fight that has a darker ending.

Meta Info: Mutants and Masterminds, PL 6, Pulp-style game. Set in 1934. Characters (there's a lot of them): Tarot - Gypsy mystic that derives her power from items corresponding to the Tarot deck. She can control and manipulate the mental capacities of her foes. Sgt. Signal - Military man...

Combat!? You've obviously never played Dread! ;)

IMO: New D&D players are a good thing no matter what game or edition they're playing.

Does this mean I win?

For the next DC Gameday, I am thinking of running a Dread game that is set at a Saved By The Bell class reunion. Of course, Mr. Belding is murdered and the one-time best friends have to solve THE MYSTERY [cue scary music]. In the past, I have run games using the characters from the Danger Girl...

It's always on a Saturday and starts in the AM - it's a relatively painless drive and we have many people that travel from all along the east coast (RI, CT, NY, MD, DC, VA, and NC)! We've even got people traveling from as far away as Iowa to attend in March! It's an awesome day filled with...

*waves* Where abouts in VA do you reside? You should check the link in my signature for information on the DC/MD/VA gameday. There'll be another one coming up in March! Good fun is had by all, I promise!

I am, all things considered, excited about the new edition and I plan on buying the books and playing the game. However, my excitement would be amplified had they waited another year or so. I recognize that Wizards/Hasbro is a business. I understand that they're out to make money (that is...

That was my first guess, but because the reviewer said it was purchased, I figured that it was not, in fact, a review copy.

That. Would. Rock.

Hmmm... It could be that the book was released early at the review's FLGS. I know that, when I was working Wizards retail, I often had boxes of books nearly a week before they were supposed to be sold. While I never SOLD them early, you best bet that I READ them.
