    RPG-ish Boardgames

    Cant Wait to get ... Thanks for all the input...I'd love to hear from more on games that are out there as I think this may be a great way to satisfy my rpg fix for awhile (haven't had much luck with groups.) While Descent and Runebound were almost the first choice, we decided to go with the...

    RPG-ish Boardgames

    Fantasy Flight Actually, all 3 FF games just recommended appealed to me at first glance (read "the box looked COOL!). Between Warcraft, Descent and Runebound, which one would be best for playing with an 8 yearold while trying to get an RPG type feel? Leveling involved? Aquiring...

    Mutants and Masterminds 2E - I Have It

    Bront -I ordered through Amazon. The price was right, but they said the anticpated shipping date wasn't until December. I' m hoping that's not right. Michael - I had thought about MSH...glad to see it worked well for you. I'm hoping MM works much the same way with quick session games that...

    Songs with great bass lines

    I was going to mention When Dove's Cry earlier, but didnt want to lend support to the bass players aren't memorable undercurrent sometimes out there (hell, there wasn't one on that track!). Come to think of it, for being as funky as he is, his bass lines usually aren't what drive the song. And...

    Online Mutants&Masterminds (Klooge)

    Talk the talk is more for pbp or pbem games if my recollection is correct. I'm thinking of an online game...realtime chat and rolling dice and that sorta stuff. No interest out there for that? Anyone? ....anyone?....Bueller?

    More Bass - Screw the cowbell Wow, there were alot of great bass players mentioned, a previous poster had it right about James Jamerson....he doesnt get mentioned enough. For anyone who's interested, the Standing in the Shadows documentary on Motown painted a great (if tragic) stroy of...

    Stores in Buffalo?

    AHHH!!! The only local store worth the trip has gone under! The Sage's Quest had boatloads of new product and a lot of traffic with people who would talk up different games. Any Buffalo people out there know of any alternatives? I've seen there's at least a half dozen of us out there...guess...

    Online Mutants&Masterminds (Klooge)

    Is there any interest in an online pickup game of Mutants and Masterminds using Klooge? I just picked up the manual and I'm dying to play. I'll GM an adventure if there aren't any takers on that front - although I'd much rather be a player ;) I'm thinking an adventure that reimagines a...

    New gamer seeking games in Buffalo area...

    Lancaster I'm not too far away from you...unfortunately, I'm in the same boat as you ...don't have a real group at the moment. Well, I am DM'ing for my son and his cousins, but I'm looking to expand my horizons beyond the 7 year old cohort. Maybe there's more of us in the area in the same...

    Where's the weirdest place you've ever found YOUR name?

    Name game I went to an italian restaurant that had original paintings as part of the decor and above the table we were sitting at was a work by an artist of the same name. I didn't think Del Valle was a common name (I'm also only slightly italian and the names isn't).

    A Sad and Expensive Story. PC or Console Tale

    PC Upgrade Hell I took about the same upgrade route 6 months ago...sunk $400 into the 6800 gt (256 mb), bought another 512 stick of ram to bring me to a gig (forgot the price at the time...maybe a little over $100), bought a new volcano fan ($30 ?) to overclock my Athlon 2500XP to a 3200XP and...

    Anybody here play on MUDs (Multi-User Dungeons)

    MUDS: Getting around I've played MUDS on an off since college...I loved the feel...the mechanics felt like D&D and remindd me of Zork and the early Ultimas (that's a good thing). The one weakness for me was managing to get around. I'm a directional idiot in real life and trying to find my way...
