Sounds great to me! Wish ya'd never left!

Thorm's goal is to be returned to his rightful place in the nobility. He is clearly a natural and gifted leader (as well as a mighty warrior) and apparently as one of the few remaining, non-evil members of the ruling class he should be richly rewarded for leading the people out of this slavery...

Along these lines, the biggest source of conflict I saw in Saturday's game was in two places. And I thought both of those were legitimate, in-character disputes we had. 1) in the decision of what to do with the pages from the book. I saw Thorm as being reluctant to give up a weapon we could use...

Suffice it to say that everything about innocents, dead civilians, prisoners, patriotism, tactics. being ordered about like a servant and such was all coming from "Thorm." My personal beliefs on most of those subjects are about a 180 away from his. Maybe I need to develop a snobby voice for...

Mark, on your way out the door, you made the comment about complaining about your playing style. I hope you realize that I am trying to play Thorm complaining about Olan's style, not ME complaining about YOUR playing style. As I wrote in an earlier post, I see him as the combination of a rich...

I will be there as soon as I can.

So... what's the plan folks?

I can play on Saturday, after I get off of work. So probably early afternoon assuming nothing blows up.

I'm guessing I shouldn't start the Wheel of Time... Story on his death

I'm sorry to hear that. Playing with everybody is a blast. But between crazy work, new babies, ill parents and other ebbs and flows, it hasn't been easy to get people together... obviously. I could play next weekend, or Sunday or whatever. But I'm in Muncie tonight and tomorrow.

And I would reveal more about how the monsters came to be, but I think that would ruin the mysteries of the game world. So I don't want to give out any Spoilers to anyone reading this thread.

Well Monte Cook's World of Darkness (MCWoD) is D20 and while I like some of Monte's decisions for the game and for the setting, I am sort of flummoxed by others. For example, he has an interesting setting rationale for the horror that is happening in the world -- a reason that there are...

I could also do something on Sunday...

Thorm is out of town Friday and Saturday for Flash training in Muncie. Dagnabit.

I've been reading Monte Cook's World of Darkness and it is pretty darn cool. Anyone interested in playing a modern horror/conspiracy game with D20, even as a fill-in for a couple of sessions? I'd really like to run this, especially with Halloween right around the corner :)

Someone, somewhere gave me this link. Was it one of you guys? If not, hilarious... DM of the Rings The creator's comments under most strips is pretty insightful about the stupidity of D&D rules. My favorite line: "Parlay is just a French word for "flat-footed and empty-handed."" And the...

It is entirely possible that M&M is the 21st century equivalent of Champions. Champions was at first a superhero game system but it became apparent that the game design was so rock solid and modular that those rules could be used to play every other possible genre. I think a fantasy game or a...

I can't even get started talking about it, or I will never stop. But a few things I have become acutely aware of in recent days. 1) Increased productivity and reduced staffing is not always the answer to every problem. At some point, you really do need more people working to get more work...

You are absolutely right. Sorry I was snarky Mark. I'm in a crappy mood. I'm just sitting here this morning at 9:45 a.m., knowing that a) they want me in work like 45 minutes ago, but also knowing that I am not going to get done until after 10 p.m. tonight. And I have already worked an hour...

D&D4e isn't Mutants and Masterminds! I'm just saying that the Paragons book, with the rules for changing your society i.e. "Paradigm Shifts" is a Mutants and Masterminds book. And we are playing a Mutants and Masterminds game. So when you said "Not that it really matters, I guess. We ain't...
