We need a Thor / Antman movie so we have Luis and Korg telling the story.

We created a science fiction club at our school. Games, movies, comics. We were already playing RPGs in the library, now we just did some in a classroom.

I was pretty sure there was an adventure in a Dungeon Magazine where the map was inside of a sphere. But I wasn't able to find which issue it was in.

It's mostly all the free time I had. Play time went down after the kids were born. Now that they are all out of high school, free time is coming back but there are more computer and board games competing for time.

I have a lot of RPGs that I've played only few times, and many that I've played 100s or more. D&D, GURPS, Champions, Call of Cthulhu too many times to count. Top Secret, James Bond, Runequest, Toon, Paranoia, Pendragon, Deadlands: Dozens of times Ghostbusters, Bureau 13, Fringeworthy...

Actually I enjoyed the different Space Atlas books for Space Opera. The game is a bit clunky compared to modern systems. GURPS Space has great charts for making systems if you want an exploration game, it's worth it even if you are playing a different system.

I definitely prefer more realistic within the context of the world building. If for some reason there are things that are not possible within our knowledge then the use the things has to make sense as if smart people would put it to good use. Which really boils down to consistency.

In addition to my RPG games, we play Root 2x a month, have an online board game group 2x a month, and play Stellaris (computer game) x2 a week. Sometimes we have pick up board games and other computer games (Crusader Kings 3 for example).

What's your rationale for saying there is some kind of quota for gay men in shows? There have been a lot of gay women in CW shows but this might be the first gay man in the title role on the network. I did some searching and didn't see others but I might have missed something. Heck I'm not sure...

Turns out it was the Tom Swift Jr. series and the Rick Brant series. And the Encyclopedia Brown series as well. Later the Henry Reed series. Oh and the Mad Scientist Club The Mad Scientists' Club - Wikipedia and Danny Dunn Danny Dunn - Wikipedia

I did not see any posts on this previously and was curious if anyone was watching it. I haven't seen it either but I was a fan of the original books. I'm not sure how it spun off of Nancy Drew but there were a lot of books with wiz kids in the 50's and 60's. I particularly liked the Rick Brant...

Having started RPG groups and board game groups in public spaces over the years, it's never going to happen in just a few sessions. You start with as many people as you can personally get there and then over time people see and jump in. The first year of my monthly board game groups were...

I am definitely situational. There are beats that the antagonists are going to hit if the players don't do anything. But the beats will adapt to player actions (the villain's plans never survive contact with the players) If I use random encounters, the encounters have to be tied in to the...

Battle of the Bulge (AH 1965) First war game I played and first time I realized my father and uncles used to play games like this when they were kids. Still need to play my uncle sometime. Tammany Hall (StrataMax 2007) A faster and more brutal diplomacy type game. Described as a knife fight...

James Bond 007 RPG works better with smaller groups. It can do larger groups but if you want to model the movies it works with 2-3 players better. Traveller. Two players with a bunch of crew or just a 2 person scout ship. Any SF RPG though might work as well Superhero games work well with 2...

Never saw it because I liked the 2nd edition, I saw no reason to move on. Funny because 1st edition Paranoia was a mess with their skill trees. 2nd edition was much better. I never really looked at the later editions.

This is generally my biggest complaint with most of the published adventures. They don't go into detail about the why of the conflict. I have no trouble making one for my table but it would be nice to have a sentence or two about why the conflict exists.

I am a big fan of GURPS for anything in the human scale. Superhuman high point value characters get odd. The best thing is that you can turn on or off the detail for you game fairly easily. When people talk about taking a long time for combat, I don't see that unless you turned on all the...

I really don't like level based RPGs for modern or science fiction. I prefer Traveller, GURPS, HERO, or just about anything else that doesn't have levels.

I hope it has the most important thing about having pets in a roleplaying game. Being able to buy them cute hats.
