Cthulhu Live I can't believe no one has mentioned the fine LARP developed by Fantasy Flight Games known as Cthulhu Live. Listen, I just can't take the angst thing from Vampire, nor do I want to deal with the "padded swords" of NERO and its kin. I want modern horror. I want Cthulhu Live...

Yeah, Hills Rise Wild sounds good. Thanks PCat. I'm kind of shocked that no one has played Maul of America. It's set in a mall... with zombies. That was almost enough to sway me before my friendy neighborhood game store owner pointed me towards ZOMBIES! Well, thank you all for the feedback...

I am torn. I seek only one of two board games. The games I have decided to choose from are Maul of America ($30.00) from Jolly Roger games and Zombies! ($19.95) from Steve Jackson games. The economics between the two are obvious. However, I would like to hear from you gentleman regarding the...

DM_Matt, I agree with you completely. Although I purport to be a bit more of a radical than Drudge, he remains da man. Not as high up as Jello Biafra, but, nevertheless, the man. Actually, Biafra and Noam Chomsky, but I disparage to speak of politics.

What? On the 2nd page? I say nay!

Hey all, I'm looking for an RPG. Not just any RPG, mind you, but a special one. I'm looking for one with more fluff than crunch, a game that supports a more freestyle, cinematic form of gameplay. Something that emphasizes a character's background and personality over blocks of numbers. Any...

Bonus points: "Boy, I sure am tired of all these star wars" (hint: name the TV show) The answer is: The Upright Citizen's Brigade!

Fictitious: Great Cthulhu, Hastur the Unspeakable, Azathoth, Shub-Niggurath, and Nyartoltep(sp?). Anyone else that I missed from the Cthulhu mythos. Not fictitious: Henry Kissinger ( encouraged a dictator to take control of Chile for the sake of the Pepsi corporation, killed something short of...

Wow. That was quite a tale. I could never imagine how you guys managed to escape that... Uh... How did you escape?

I don't no what to believe about ghosts, but two generations of my family have claimed to have had encounters with a "guardian angel" or something like that. It starts with my grandfather, who was stationed in Africa fighting Rommel during World War II. He was on guard duty and had dozed off...

That's not necessarily a good thing..

So, was this the first session, an introduction to the game (a smuggler seeking a new partner and maybe a crew), or part of a character's background? Whatever it is, I like it.

Hey KidC, I was just if you ever used premade game worlds, and, if so, which worlds did you use? Thanks.

Reaver I believe when reaver is used in the cases of Slime Reaver or Soul Reaver it is almost a synonym for "bandit." Historically, Reavers was the nickname of the barbaric Scottish based raiders that swept in, killed men, women and children in outlying villages, and pillaged thoroughly. Of...

Hey Mark, thanks for coming out. According to Deadlands d20 a mad scientist PC gets one starting gizmo, be it a gatling pistol, a bullet proof vest, a flamethrower, a jetpack, or a steam wagon. I'm probably only going to have three law men, plus one grizzled homesteader who scouted until...

Railroading the PC's I realize it may sound like I'm railroading the PC's, but this is just a plan I'm making in case they try a direct attack. I their real sneaky, clever, and/or daring they could get away with it. But if they try to use the tank as a getaway they could end up bogged down...

C'mon! BUMP!! I just want some feedback on my plan. I knew it was a mistake listing this as long...

Howdy ya'll, I'm a tinhorn Marshal, so you folks are gonna hafta bear with me. The gaming posse got together yesterday and resolved to create characters for a game of Deadlands d20, seeing as only half of the posse showed up, and the party didn't want to go into Rappan Athuk only three...

Some of the LARP's I'm looking for aren't up. There's nothing by PST on the site. I'm wondering if some of the companies are selling tickets for events out of their booth.

Treasure Division Hey all. I love this story hour. It is among my top three, which includes Sagiro's and Piratecat's story hours. I'm just curious about one thing: how do the players go about dividing treasure? Do they do that auction thing suggested in the DMG, do they give it to those who...
