    24: Day 7: 8:00 AM - 9:00 AM/Season 7-Eps#!

    You must have missed the shows beginning where Jack was being questioned. He was the one saying that CTU's tactics should be out in the open, held accountable to the people. It looks to me as if FOX may be trying to play both sides of the fence this season. But, if you feel that strongly abut...

    A Gaming Table My Wife Will Let Me Have

    We use terrain occasionally, but it tends to lead to guesstimating and fudging distances when you loose sight of the grid. Of course for a game where exact distances aren't important, it would be cool. (Mmmmm CoC with 3D terrain... yummy.)

    A sandless sand table? That makes sense.

    A Gaming Table My Wife Will Let Me Have

    I've never 'wargamed', is the sunken aspect really so important? I mean, I realize people use sunken tables, but even most of the wargameing stores around here have flat tables. AFAIK.

    A Gaming Table My Wife Will Let Me Have

    Well, there are plans for The Avenger table are sold rather cheap at the site in my sig, it is no where near the beautiy of The Sultan, but it's much more affordable even if you spend money for higher quality wood and finish. No, the site and table aren't mine, I just plug it for a friend. As...

    Tony had to adapt to the situation. He knows Jack is having his own trouble with the hearing. I don't think he wanted to bring Jack in, he adapted because having been caught, he had no choice

    Actually, the torture did work on Tony. He broke and gave Jack the information he needed. Granted, it wasn't what Jack thought he was asking for. Now Tony may not have broke for anyone else, but he knows two things about Jack, 1) that if he knew the truth he almost certainly would help and 2)...

    24: Day 7: 8:00 AM - 9:00 AM/Season 7-Eps#!

    Not the first time Jack's 'superiors' have tried to make him play by the book, so this is not exactly groundbreaking material, in fact you could say that having one of the 'by the bookers' change so quickly was new stuff. They usually fight Jack tooth and nail until they are forced to change...

    24: Day 7: 8:00 AM - 9:00 AM/Season 7-Eps#!

    Jack Bauer and 24 have always been about the ends justifying the means. If they turn very far from that ideal you'll see a lot of it's core audience bailing out pretty fast. I would get into the whys and wherefores, but that would quickly go into forbidden territory. Suffice to say, if 24 bends...

    What, out of spite? So, the theory is that the universe is female? :heh:

    Yeah, Bill looked very... civilian. He needs a haircut.

    Cheater Dice? Why?

    Well, this is the particular product that is the cause of the thread. I very, very seriously suggest that you not use these in an actual game.

    24: Day 7: 8:00 AM - 9:00 AM/Season 7-Eps#!

    These don't really bother me, because the details are different enough to keep things interesting. I mean we also know that by 8pm or so, they will have neutralized the CIP device and will be working to uncover a bigger picture problem through the second half of the season. That's how 24 works...

    How is that babe in the barely there armor getting any AC bonus?

    Oh, I imagine she'd ask why I didn't look like that any more and I would reply with something about her fitting into her size 3 jeans again and we'd have a laugh before going back to real life.

    How is that babe in the barely there armor getting any AC bonus?

    From part of my response to the questionere: Really all of those being 'offended' need to toughen up IMO. There are far more offensive instances of the objectification of women that could be reviled. To waste it on fantasy art is an injustice.

    How is that babe in the barely there armor getting any AC bonus?

    And when you speak of the individuals you game with, do you call them 'male gamers' or 'men', or do you just call them 'the guys' like most of the rest of us do?

    Cheater Dice? Why?

    I don't know. I have a set of dice that are like that. 2 20s, 2 10s, 2 6s. I also have a set of 3 loaded d6s. They are heavily weighted to roll 6s. I bought them as a novelty and have never used them in an actual game. I did roll up characters with the loaded dice a few time, just for fun. 18...

    Yeah, it's almost impossible to believe that Tony is really a bad guy. I think we'll find out tonight at the end of the 4th hour. Also, is it just me or is this lady President just not coming off as believeable? Still, it's great to have bauer back in action. Been too long.

    After Dark HorrorFest III: Anyone going?

    Oh, I didn't think it was a great movie, but I enjoyed it. As you said tastes vary, I am a fan of horror in general. Foriegn, B-rate, low budget, campy, actually frightening. I watch them all and like them for different reasons. No, The Unborn was not scary at all. I thought it was interesting...

    After Dark HorrorFest III: Anyone going?

    The Brøken This was interesting. Kinda like Invasion of the Bodysnatchers, but with a very interesting twist. The story does move kinda slow. 60 minutes of story crammed into a 90 minute movie. I think I actually dozed off a couple of times, briefly… but it was still good. (and after seeing...
