:\ I'm sure people think that's what happens to them. But people are dumb. :D

Hey, just for the record, I've never seen this happen. What I do think happens is what I said above - threads close when someone disagrees, not when the original opinion gets posted (unless it's REALLY offensive). But I certainly don't think that the secifics of the opinions are what's at stake...

Hey, I don't! That was, sort of, the point. Ok guys, thanks for the clarification, and expect to see an increase in my pointing out stuff. :D

Ok, there's been a few times in the last week where people have been discussing politics (to my mind) on the boards. Now I never post in a thread where there's political content. My position is that there are a lot of gamers who I like as gamers but would really dislike if I knew more about...

And this isn't leagal in some countries, including Australia, where 'format shifting' is illegal.

That's a really good review. I got a question: one of the things I liked most from the Black Company book was the rules for masterwork weapons - detailed and interesting, and an alternative to magic items. Does WFRP2 have anything like that?

Something that replicates the far future sci-fi of Iain M Bank's culture novels. But really anything I can plunder for my PL7 game.

Sweeeeeet

Nah, the magic system in the hogshead book was supposed to be pretty average. The previews at least made this look more interesting, and fully developed the hedge mage thing too.

Magic system description please. I've been told it's the most changed section!

Well, the rules say that Knowledge (Planes) is the apporpraite skill for recognising outsideres. So they should use that.

ah well, think I missed this.

Did they sort out the law suit then?

If you can find the delta green book, that provides some excellent setting info as well.

Hey, me too! But it does seem to me that there isn't as much of a difference between old Dragon and new Dragon as people claim.

Well it's more fiction about science rather than sci-fi, but it's certainly not fantasy! I read the first one, kinda liked it, but found it (like cryptonomicon) a little in need of a heavy edit at times. I'll read the next two when I can afford them (so maybe start in a few months). edit...

I know what jaded means. You misunderstood. I don't mean jaded about the old magazines, I mean jaded (in the worn out sense) of new gaming material. You get it all the time here. Old gamers going on about how everythign used to be fresh and new. Well, duh. Of course when you were new to gaming...

Prbably because everyone talks about the old dragons as if they were hugely different from the new dragons. And they're not! Mostly people's nostalgia kicks in here: when I first started gaming (and actually when i restarted in my 20s) everything was cool and new. The people who are posting...

The best place by far for RPG stuff in Wellington is Grahic Comics and Toys on Cuba Mall. Nice staff, and reasonably prompt with stuff. Do be aware that unless the situation has improved dramatically, gaming stuff often takes a month or so from release to get to NZ. Zapak Vim's campaign is a...
