Thanks for reminding me why I don't have a copy of this in my D&D collection.

Owlbears are great, but how come bearowls get no love?

I'm not sure that kind of druid would call his friends "Monsters". "They're not monsters, they're just misunderstood." - Hagrid T. Scamander, Circle of Misunderstood Magical Creatures Druid

Nice to meet you, Always Serious. But why does your icon say Paul Farquhar?

My blue lipstick futures are in the toilet now, though.

If the cast quotes Monty Python or the Princess Bride, they will have 100% nailed the D&D game vibe.

Gnomes are actually a halfling conspiracy to redirect antipathy against small folk. The don't actually exist, but their image makes halflings far more acceptable by comparison.

Good grief, 46 pages. Popular topic. I like my halflings as hobbits, because Tolkien was my introduction to fantasy. But the next best ones are the cannibalistic ones from Dark Sun.

Yeah, up until this point we were giving her the benefit of the doubt because she was a woman trying to make it in male-dominated corporate America, so clearly the stories were overblown and misogynist propaganda. Turns out she actually was a spawn of Demogorgon. Who knew?

Part of the art of DMing is knowing when to offer real choice versus the illusion of choice. Two plot hooks that lead to the same place: illusion of choice. Two paths than offer different hazards that can be negotiated separately: choice. There's a place for both. What I think DM's should try...

Vote Thirsty Sword Lesbians all the way down! Just a title that awesome deserves to win.

Oona and the wolf. You know, I'm really looking forward to the eventual reveal of CitD, though there will be a loss of mystery. 'Cause I'm at a loss as to what he/she/it/they are.

I'm glad you pointed that out. I just opened the book and started reading last night -- first exposure to the Midnight setting -- and got about five pages in to some great description and said "where's the map?" which was followed by 15 minutes of flipping pages looking for a map which I didn't...

I hear the Dungeons & Dragons cartoon was so successful it launched the entire concept of RPGs. ... I'll show myself out. (But I always did think Thundarr the Barbarian was someone's Gamma World campaign. And Titan AE could have inspired Star Frontiers but it was the other way round. Is there...

I thought others might wonder about the reason for my question.

Yeah, it's Hollywood. So they wont follow the rules or expect realism, and would likely have hand-waved everything. But I was curious if they attempted an explanation. But with the assumption that the movies are contemporary to their release dates (so Top Gun is set in 1986 and Maverick 2022)...

What I want to know is if they justified (or attempted to justify) Maverick's age and career length. He's about a dozen years past mandatory retirement date without a significant break in service.

Begone foul dwimmerlaik! - Faffle Dwe'o-mercraeft

Nice product. I won't back this one, though I did back T:2000 and TOR and they are both fantastic. I just don't see how they keep up with all of these!

Ooh ... we might be moving forward! Who knew it would be Belkar being persuasive? And fun to see someone on Elan's wavelength.
