My bad! He was indeed! I meant to add this video to the original post on this and simply forgot. The producer does an excellently quirky job of presenting the story:

Mod Note: “Keep it civil” & “Don’t make it personal” are 2 of the things we expect of ENWorld’s posters. It helps keep discussions on point and reduces bickering. Your post, OTOH, is the opposite. We would rather posters de-escalate, disengage or even report posts instead of jabbing at each...

There’s parallels between the personal and philosophical relationship Magneto has with Professor X and what Louis Farrakhan and Malcom X had with MLK. And believe me, the divisions in black society over those 3 (and those that followed in each’s footsteps) are also echoed in how mutants view...

Filé Seafood Gumbo Gumbo is one of those non-recipe recipes. You’re creating a flavor YOU like, so it’s never precisely the same. What follows is an approximation, a target to aim for. I don’t measure most of my seasonings, preferring to go by taste, because some of the ingredients like...

Can do! I just have to find the copy I wrote up a while back. It will be up soon.

I have known for many years that the most insane score in football history was Georgia Tech 222 - Cumberland Gap College 0. TIL the REST of the story. It seems that the year prior, CGC had sharked GT by hiring ringers to help win a baseball game. They then kinda shut down their athletics...

Exactly. He’s a classic example of “the road to hell is paved with good intentions”.

My position exactly. My list of 80s “would plays” is long.

Magneto is one of those villains/anti-heroes who made accurate observations to justify actions that might be questionable or ill/advised, if not outright evil themselves. So the “they” are those- mostly other mutants- who opposed him. The thing is, he wasn’t being opposed for his beliefs...

Waaaay back, I created a LN shaman/necromancer based on the practices of voodoo. There were elements of capoeira, escrima and musical ability woven into him. Wee Jas was one of the deities I was considering as his god, but I can’t remember that particular detail with any clarity.

Need some travel bans to really do that right.

Thing is, if you look across the whole superhero comics industry, limiting a campaign to “all mutants” doesn’t necessarily stop all or even most various “cool” character types. Different writers, titles, and companies have created all kinds of mutants. For instance, most Marvel mutants are...

It has potential, NGL. After ST:NG, I always wanted to see something superficially similar- a series focused on Star Fleet Academy. First of all, much like the episode featuring a young Tom Paris, you could “test run” characters for roles in other Trek properties Second, while the main...

I did use a ship that sailed across dimensions as a base in one campaign- thank you, Michael Moorcock. It worked pretty well.

Mod Note: Let’s not compare real world faiths with game mechanics for the supernatural. It’s also not exactly polite to dismiss religious beliefs as myth, especially in such a facetious manner. It’s inherently disrespectful towards people’s faith, and that’s disruptive of civil discourse on...

The thing that amuses me is that I loved the basic setting May came up with- with some of the things you noted- but I didn’t particularly care for the series itself and didn’t finish reading it. But it always struck me as a setting ripe with adventure hooks for an RPG.

No, I understood instantly.👍🏽 And I’ve had to point out incidences of 1488 to others, like on a topographical map on the wall of Black Rifle Coffee. And no, it’s not a coincidence- there’s nothing approaching that elevation in the area, so it’s a dog whistle hiding in plain sight.

Didn’t know about those.

In particular, The Armor Wars story arc.

Ummmm…
