    So, Wandavision?

    Well it’s a big “if” but if White Vision does have full access to his memories (including the context), he is essentially the “real” Vision as opposed to a magical construct created by Wanda’s needs. That said, it would feel like he is a more ”complete” Vision if he also has Wanda’s Vision’s...

    So, Wandavision?

    Vision surviving is simultaneously what I want most to happen in the final episode and the least likely thing to happen 🙄

    So, Wandavision?

    I know this is a real stretch, no pun intended, but isn’t Monica’s outfit vaguely reminiscent of the FF suits?

    [+] Star Trek Discovery (Fan) Thread

    I think this a common misconception that to be honest I was also guilty of. In TOS films Kirk is portrayed as defying orders (for a good reason of course) but when I rewatched TOS tv series it’s much more often that Kirk is following Star Fleet orders and the Prime Directive - even if sometimes...

    D&D 1E How/How Often Did you award XP in 1E AD&D?

    From what I can remember awarding XP didn’t change from B/X through 1E. XP was awarded at the end of every adventure (which could take several sessions). Magic items and gold were treated differently - it never occurred to anyone to compensate players with “lesser” or no magic items with extra...

    'Origin' of Your User Name

    So long ago it’s hard to remember - I believe it was chanting in a dream 😉

    D&D 3E/3.5 Are You Still Playing D&D 3.0?

    Always in two minds about 3.5E and 3.0E - yes it was too early but when people talk about it not being different enough to warrant a new edition I always think about the core rule books for 1E and 2E. While there were lots of add ons to 2E ... we moved seamlessly from 1E to 2E and I’d be hard...

    Are You Burned Out?

    Sounds painfully familiar ... including a very brief trial run of 5E, and then reverting to a short homebrew 3.5E campaign, I haven’t run more than a dozen sessions in nearly 10 years!

    Palace of the Silver Princess - your experiences?

    Ran this back in the day when we were all young an naive and benefitted from a bit of railroading to feel like we were all getting somewhere! Remember it being very enjoyable at the time. Didn’t intend to completely rewrite it but did for 3.5E. What started off as a simple rules conversion took...

    What are you reading this year 2020?

    Recently read Poul Anderson’s The Broken Sword - easy to see where Moorcock drew his inspiration from! Currently two books into Glen Cook’s Dread Empire series. I’ve read all of his Black Company books and didn’t realise at first these were written first. Not sure what to make of them yet but I...

    Roleplaying Games of the 1970s (and very early 80s)

    We played D&D/AD&D and Traveller consistently but dabbled with RQ, MERP, FASA Star Trek, Stormbringer, Call of Cthulhu. Remember a few of us that were mainly the referees bought a few others out of interest but never played them, e.g. T&T, Mayfair DC Heroes, etc.

    Worlds of Design: The Cost of Trade

    Small world - back in the day Paul ran our original Traveller campaign while I ran D&D!

    Worlds of Design: The Cost of Trade

    Never thought of it before but my players never trade in D&D but we almost always trade in Traveller :)

    D&D 3E/3.5 The 20th Anniversary of 3rd Edition D&D

    I’d stopped playing during my degree. This wasn’t that long after 2E had been released but we‘d made the transition seamlessly. I played the various CRPGs based on 2E but it was 3E, and the excitement around 3E, that brought me back to TTRPGs. It’s still the best version of the game IMHO. We...

    BILL & TED FACE THE MUSIC Official Trailer #1 (2020)

    Given how youthful Keanu normally looks - why does he seem so old as Ted? Alex Winter looks like he's much more comfortably stepped back into the part . . . well at least from the trailer! Still hoping this will be . . . err . . . well - most excellent! 😁

    What is the most statistically improbably die roll you've witnssed?

    Yeah - but what a way to go!

    What is the most statistically improbably die roll you've witnssed?

    Back in 1E days when we still rolled 3d6, I had a player roll three 18s for his stats - don’t remember it being consecutive stats but it was still impressive!

    Monte Cook Games’ Next Kickstarter Is Ptolus (for 5E and Cypher)

    Well I just don't know how much rewriting will be needed to make it fit into the 5E or Cypher systems but I remember Monte marketing this originally as the definitive 3E campaign . . . so that implies all sorts of default assumptions that may well not hold true for other systems (presumably most...

    How long have you been gaming?

    Roughly 36 years. - started with D&D, Traveller, and then added in Runequest, FASA Star Trek, MERP, and Stormbringer.
