Hey, don't you try to tell me what to do with MY F-35 Joint Strike Fighter in the privacy of MY own home! What are you, some sort of commie?

Well it appears skynet will be delayed http://www.duffelblog.com/2014/02/f35-delays-sentience/

I haven't seen him at WotC any of the times I dropped in there but I've seen the occasional post from him around here (just not this particular forum).

That looks pretty awesome

LOL, was it every bit as hilarious as I envision it? My last shop had several of those robots, as well as a lot of other robot models. The SWORDS looked cool, but that was about it.

I don't believe the SWORDS ever made it out of the testing and evaluation phase. Funny thing, the Talon has a habit of picking up stray EMR and running amok. Turns out that when this happens during a demo where it is armed with a machine gun, it's sort of frowned upon. I have yet to hear of any...

We'll see how that works out considering we still don't have an armed ground robot system fielded. We don't have robots that can do everything a soldier can do. Right now our ground robots each require a robot operator, so by replacing 25% of soldiers with robots, another 25% would be dedicated...

Skyrim uses subdued color schemes, but it still looks good and the duller colors actually fit the overall tone of the game pretty well. I'm not sure what games you've been playing that have led you to believe that most games only deal with realistic weight limits. Still, Skyrim does better than...

Thanks for sharing that material. I've only played a little bit of the new SW RPG but it was fun enough that I think I'll have need of more adventures in the near future.

I've found a lot of flaws with 4e but even so it is my favorite edition of D&D. I'll probably harvest a couple bits and pieces from D&DPrevious but that's about it.

I've been doing this for my game and it has been well-received by the players. There are a few effects that I observed: 1) It is much easier on new/casual players since some of them constantly get confused on the difference between the ability score and the ability score modifier. 2) Because...

I believe that the GSL product Amethyst had power armor. Either that or Ultramodern4. Or probably both, they did share a bit of material.

I content myself with the fact that it's almost a physical impossibility for him to do worse than Lucas did with the Special Edition or Episode I. If such a thing were to occur, I believe the universe would implode and I would no longer be concerned with it.

Yeah, I agree on both points. I liked it when they tried to play around with the morality thing a few times. When Jacen tapped into the Unifying Force that seemed like a starting point. When he turned dark side to save the galaxy, I thought that was a good point to blur the lines, but then he...

I think the Young Jedi Knight series was all right on its own (when I read it I hadn't read much SW literature other than the Thrawn Trilogy) but when put in the context of all the SW books out there, it was just more of the same (Imperials, dark jedi, turn someone back to the light side) with a...

I suppose it could work, but I'd like to see newer characters taking the stage. I think it's ridiculous how long the original characters have held the spotlight in the books, even ones that take place when Han and Leia are grandparents. Some of the book descriptions have them running and dodging...

If Salma Hayek isn't in it as a stripper-vampire, then I just don't see how it can match up to the original.

Well there's a lot more to weight than just what you eat. Activity level, metabolism, and the amount of what you eat all matter. I watched that stupid documentary about the guy that ate nothing but McDonald's and almost killed himself. The guy was literally force-feeding himself. In the...

Honestly, I don't even know what the standard is for each class, especially when you start accounting for cost of living, which varies by location.

Yep, that was and continues to be one of my favorite fantasy series.
