    Player not listening!

    I think it is great you are introducing your children to RPGs! B-) My experience: Four is about the age when learning to take turns and to wait your turn starts to happen. I recommend playing some board games with him like Candyland or Chutes/Snakes and Ladders to experience the social process...

    Favorite Superhero types

    I like to combine aspects from the superheroes I like and follow to create a character. For example, Desert Storm is a character I created for ICONS (he appears in Adamant Entertainment's Hero Pack I) who is part Ben Grimm (The Thing), part Captain America, and part Sandman (MARVEL, not...

    What RPG's do you want to talk about?

    Thanks for that - ever since I started playing ICONS (a FATE-influenced game) supers, I've become more interested in learning about and trying out FATE. In fact, I bought a PDF copy of Spirit of the Century when it was on sale awhile back for five bucks, and got a PDF copy of Starblazer...

    I guess I don't understand "Operation Power Level Gary" - why am *I* getting XP?

    "You have given out too much Experience Points in the last 24 hours, try again later." :( The Castle of the Mad Archmage makes a nice substitute: Download CotMA at Mediafire CotMA Poster Maps B-)

    Who creates your character backgrounds?

    I've never seen it (except with pre-gens in convention or demo play as previously mentioned). Personally, I don't like the idea and prefer a player/GM collaboration in character creation, but I won't go as far to say that GM player background generation is wrong for others, if that's what they...

    Player Control, OR "How the game has changed over the years, and why I don't like it"

    A wise man once said the following on these very message boards, and it has always stuck with me: Now I don't play 4e, but I have been playing a lot of ICONS Superpowered Roleplaying lately, and that game allows for player control and retcon. And I have to say I really enjoy it, both as a GM...
