    Canada portrayed negatively in games?

    That's because anyone south of New York considers anything north of Mass just another province of canada. I call people from Minnesota Canadians all the time. I think Yoopers are Canadians as well.

    Canada portrayed negatively in games?

    Let me start by saying that I do not know of any specfic bad rap Canada gets in any roleplaying games. However, I can see WHY they would get a bad rap in most modern era games. #1) Nowhere in the world is gaming as prevalent as the US. Take out console and computer games, I'm talking people who...

    d20 Modern: What Would you change part II

    First, I'm digging the theory behind the change. Not sure how it plays out in action, but it's a heck of an idea. Along the same lines, Modern System 2.0 should use something like dramatic conflict from Spycraft 2.0. There should not be the 1 roll = failure for 100% of the dice rolls. When you...

    Who lives in Washington DC?

    I live up the road quite a bit, but hey - if people are meeting for dinner and/or BBQ, I'm in! If you decide to take a day to come up to Murder City to view our waste filled Inner Harbor, I'd be happy to show you around the local watering hole(s).

    How long should game sessions be?

    I'll be the one guy to vote 'Other'. If there's going to be M&M and Spirit of the Centruy and possibly Spycraft 2.0, and other games I've never done, I'd rather the opportunity to try shorter games, that way I can demo more systems in a day, rather than 2 really long sessions. My other concern...

    Spycraft 2.0 -> d20 Modern

    Heap did a good quick and dirty PDF that was on here, but removed when Adamant asked him to work up something professional for sale. Status unknown at this point, other than the last time I asked about it they said it's still in the pipeline. Some people may have saved the PDF before it was...

    Veteran Group in Essex MD looking for

    If you ever decide to play anything other than D&D 3.x, I'm in Joppa. Played for about 12+ years then took a hiatus the last 4 or 5 due to moving and stuff. I still keep up with things, but I don't want to play D&D so much anymore.

    MD, Laurel or Frederick Game Wanted

    I'm also looking for a game in the white marsh/baltimore (or Bel Air/Aberdeen) areas. However, I have no intention of playing D&D 3.x and would prefer not to play any fantasy, but I could be convinced otherwise if the game sounds neat. Xer0, what's your deal? I live in Joppa and would love a...

    Removing yourself from a gaming group

    I played in a game for almost 3 years where the plot 'finale' if you will was exactly that. The DM's best friend was to become the new prophesised elf king. In spite of the fact that this was obviously slanted, our group had a blast the whole time. We just had to roll with the fact that we...

    Where do I start for running a Pulp d20 adventure?

    Adamant's GM Guide to Pulp is a great resource, as are most of the other GM type books. I'm not partial to too many Advanced Classes, but I do have a bunch of them and they're not bad. Start with the GM guide, then figure out where you want to go with it. Pulp isn't just a single genre. Do you...

    Transformers

    Just got back from watching the movie. I'm fired up like nobody's business. I doubt I'll fall asleep in the next 2 hours or so. All I can say was: AWESOME! The tongue in cheek comedy was interesting, special effects were great but bordering on a little too much. Wow! Oh, and since when was a...

    Contested Ground - A|State PDF

    Thanks for coming by Malcolm! Good to hear you are alive, although I wish A|State was still at the forefront of your activities. So long as you are still doing business, you are one step up on some others. I'd take you up on your offer, but I'm in Maryland USA. Long ship for a book. Not to...

    Contested Ground - A|State PDF

    I'm only interested in it for the Setting, which is why it seems so cool. Again, why I'd like this in PDF because I don't feel like shelling out for a hardcover of something I may not like, not to mention my collection is 90% digital already and I'd like to continue to keep my gaming portable.

    Changing the rules (d20 Modern)

    Never! I would like to see more support from GR and the licensees of True20 and Superlink, but would never in my right mind ask for it to become the train wreck that is WotC. Besides, let them have D&D. I have no use for it, and the more broken they make it the more fun I get to have laughing...

    Changing the rules (d20 Modern)

    I'd like to see d20Modern become more...True20. No classes, just talent trees. Talents which give a bonus, but open up other talent trees. No more fixed abilities at level x of class y, just pick your feat or talent and move on. No cookie cutter PCs. And damage! No more hitpoints, but speed up...
