    Ouch! It's nice to see you giving the "good" guys a severe beating - I was beginning to think you'd gone soft. ;) I do hope you'll post your WHRP tale up on these boards too.

    The Thorns of Winter -(updated 8/1/2023)

    Just caught up on the last couple of updates - very enjoyable, as always. Loved the beholder encounter. As for splitting the party ... it's not like anything bad ever happens when you do that :rolleyes:

    Nordic Noir (and other European tv series)

    Also a quick mention for "Beck" - another Swedish cop show. Not as dark as some, but not exactly cosy either.

    Nordic Noir (and other European tv series)

    My favourite Wallander series are the ones starring Krister Henriksson - but that's probably just because I saw those first, so he is Wallander for me (I've not read any of the books). The Branagh ones are pretty, but somehow not "right" - probably because they're not in Swedish.

    Nordic Noir (and other European tv series)

    Not nordic, and possible not really "noir" in the usual cinematic sense, but I highly recommend the French series "Spiral" ("Engrenages" in the original) about cops (and the legal system in general) in Paris. Eight series of murder, drugs and corruption.

    Well once Newt's school of pyromania, sorry magic, is up and running, I reckon the dwarves will at least be relegated to public enemy no.2.

    Very cool session. Don't suppose there's an audio file of Daktari's song ...?

    Yeah, but what's his story before all that ??????? :unsure:

    Excellent stuff indeed. More questions than answers, of course. Loving it.

    On and I won't say who/what wins in a contest between my wife and D&D. :unsure:

    A very intriguing session. And can I just say how much I love Newt :)

    Another fun post. And I have to give special props for the post's title. Although it also left me a bit disappointed that there was no pink and yellow blob monster and nary a mention of anyone's crinkly bottom! :D

    D&D 5e Into The (Keep on the) Borderlands (B1&2) #032 Monster Mash.

    I dunno, a minotaur rushes into the lair and the first thing it does is go for a Jimmy. What sort of game are you running? ;) :D

    D&D 5E Paladin's Steed: Unicorn help

    The paladin in my game has a "unicorn" that is just a warhorse stat-wise with an added d6 horn attack (when the warhorse gets a d8 attack anyway, if I remember correctly).
