    OK, so I had to change my name by Deed Poll to "Dry Clean Only", but it worked!

    All-in-one games and cross-overs

    Some great stuff showing up here. Have been thinking of how to come up with a team of mixed-TL, mixed culture characters - would just love to see someone from 1700s Earth out and about in space with some non-humans and humans of varying tech/skill level. Could well imagine that, while his...

    All-in-one games and cross-overs

    Good points - though in general terms, fantasy and superheroes (for all they grab lots of stuff and mix them together in a fashion that makes purists scream) have become very much their own genres. Few would step outside the box and have firearms in a "fantasy" setting - not even single-shot...

    Quest for the "perfect" all-in-one game

    Sounds like GURPS would suit me, then. I'd love to run a genre-spanning campaign wherein everything is designed to mesh with minimal fuss, be it sword fighting, cybernetics, psionics or star-ship combat - and I do like "realism" - as real as one can get given the imaginative nature of the...

    How soon do you see warning signs of a TPK?

    All-in-one games and cross-overs

    [Maxwell Smart voice]Ah, the old "Starship AI imprisons unconscious heroes in a fantasy virtual reality while it tries to destroy the world" trick.[/Maxwell Smart voice] Good to see it in action... Seriously: that sounds like a freakin' cool game.

    All-in-one games and cross-overs

    Inspired by @dm4hire:'s "Quest for the "perfect" all-in-one game" thread: Just thinking of one of the meanings of "all-in-one game" and wondering: How many here run a game that requires the versatility to change/mix genres, time lines, tech levels or whatever? I've sometimes joked about...

    I never get jealous - I'm awesome enough to accept awesomeness in others without feeling my awesomeness is threatened. IMAO, the more awesome people around, the more awesome the event/venue...

    Interesting criticism I found about us "RPG guys".

    I suspect it wouldn't be healthy to be in the area - especially not if you're wearing the same colour as the winning team...

    The Ultimate DM Screen and carry all

    Now, how about one that will hold 2 Chromebooks, CP2020 core book, "Listen Up, You Primitive Screwheads", Night City source book, 9 A4 plastic pocket folders (6 10-pocket, 2 40-pocket and a 20-pocket), an A4 refill, 4 small spiral-bound notepads, 24 assorted pencils/pens, 4 sets of dice, laptop...

    The Ultimate DM Screen and carry all

    Dude, if the finished product winds up looking half as good as the renderings of your design, it's gonna be a winner. And when they display it in the shops they should have it set out exactly as your rendering - with mini, dice, book, pencil - it shows it off brilliantly.

    Games You Have But Have Never played

    If it does, add "Traveller" to my list of "have but don't play", I only listed those I have and have never played. Going by some of these lists, I'm a rank amateur at hoarding games. I make up for it by being a World-Class Exemplar in hoarding other crap...

    Yes, and it took me quite some time to make, so don't break it or lose it under the couch.

    If you're not awesome, the Awsome-detectors built into the site won't register you and your post will be ignored. If you manage to post, it means your awesomeness has been detected... Now, think of all those sad, lonely non-awesome people who have tried posting only to have it fail.

    Energizing your players

    Pukunui: You're in New Zealand, so three words: "Demon Energy Drink". Caffeine, Taurine, Guarana - and in quantities that make Red Bull look like lolly-water. Big cans, too. The trick is to get them to drink lots - caffeine is a natural diuretic plus plenty of fluid... hard to fall asleep...
