    Describe your FLGS

    Here in brissie, Aussieland there's 3, three if you count Borders. Ace Comics and Games: My favorite by far, star all the main WOTC stuff and WOD stuff, but tends to sell out of cool things quickly and easily. Always someone in there. Half the shop is dedicated to gaming, half to comics, and...

    d20 Post-Modern?

    *laughs* I do hope there is a lot of focus on the potential paradigm shift of a dissiasociative academic context, though. I think it'd do d8 damage to all western dominated gender forms.

    How Many PC Races?

    Eh. Players in my game tend to play humans, but elves, halflings and dwarves are not unheard of. I like it that way to be honest. But I've one player that annoys me. He either plays Drow or Tieflings. (Rolls eyes). This wasn't so bad in the FR campaigns we were running, though fights...

    Racial Epithets

    Destan: The ANZACS on Gallipoli were indeed the originators of the Gallipolli "Diggers", due to all the digging they had to do to avoid being gunned down. Regardless, 'Digger' is used to denote someone who does it tough, regardless of whether he was at Gallipoli or not. WW2 created more...

    [Your char name] what is best in life?

    What is best in life? Valgoth Tansden: To Detect your enemies for evil, To Smite them Verily, and to listen to the lamentations of their dark gods. Ahh. Being 13 with a paladin again.

    Philosophy for the Races

    Thanks for the compliments, Yair. And your right; I wouldn't assume that a single philosopher would be the way to truly get at the heart of anything - and of course with fantasy being the way it is often myths and traditions are far more respected than reason. But a philosophy is a way to...

    Philosophy for the Races

    I've recently been putting together some philosophy, when I had a good idea - What of Philosophy for Dwarves? Having a background in philosophy, I immediately went and wrote some things down. Now I'm half complete, but I was wondering how interested people really would be with this? Or is it...

    "slash" and kenjutsu, BnF2?

    As a fencer myself, there seems to be a misconception about a commited thrust. Being a student in a spanish style (with of course other elements such as Silver, Thibult and Voltaire) the defensive and cautious element of the western technique is not dwelt upon. From what I gather, you seem to...

    Poll: Historical Kit & realistic rules

    Yet more interestingness. DB Well, I'd be interested in a test game. Problem being is i'm an Aussie. Question: As per characters in Swashbuckling Adventures, you may note the characters pretty much always fight (And are effective against) other humans. Against monsters my D8+3 isn't so hot...

    Poll: Historical Kit & realistic rules

    Misreply Being a fencer, I must say that I would be beyond happy to see such a system come into use. But. And here's the big but. I don't think it's possible with d20; simply the way the class system works and the regular fighting system works is too abstracted for a realistic fighting...

    What was the best character you played...

    Stennar I've a toss up between two. First up is my first character, Valgoth Tansden - the angriest, most arse-kicking, evil-smiting paladin to run through The Adventure Begins Here. Oh, the times since then when I've wondered why I didn't fall. He was torn with indescision about what to do...

    As for my new story. Currently only a few of the characters are writable, as I don't have the other sheets. Using the Conan rules, though I may change to Grim Tales if I see fit. Started at level 1, but I only have the level 3 statistics in front of me. Meleghost of Valdaron. (Also, The Sneak...
