Wouldn't this be "Hackmaster Modern?"

Except the obsession is not the cause, it is a symptom of the cause or underlying problem. What that cause is, we don't know yet, it has not been revealed. We may never know. In fact, the murder itself probably is a symptom of a larger underlying problem. The killer obviously has psychological...

OK, my misunderstanding. I think what the DA should be concerned about is if the killer had an excessive or abnormal preoccupation with D&D, or RPGs in general. Just being preoccupied with something isn't wrong or even harmful; being obsessed with something to the point of being unable to tell...

Why does the number of blades concern you? Not an attack, just curious. Maybe he collects knives and swords. I collect knives and swords and, in total, have about 100 -- more knives than swords. I know lots of collectors who have the same number or more. Some play D&D; most don't. In fact, most...

I'd rather YOU make a lengthy incision in YOUR carotid artery while in the tub. That'd make ME very happy. At least it would preserve the integrity of the gene pool. :mad: Yes, I'm a reporter. I don't see why the media is being blamed for this. The statement was made by a prosecutor, a public...

For a good example of a GM trying to warn a PC against taking a certain action, check out the latest chapter of my Traveller T20 story hour in the link in my sig. I won't say whether the PC took the hint or not -- it would ruin the story. :cool: Edit: For some reason, my sig is not showing up...

Chapter XXXIII Date: 174-993 Location: Aboard the Bray Keaven While the crew and Aidan are talking, Vasilii brings up a local news broadcast on the vid. The newscaster recounts the accident and heroics of all involved. There is a brief mention of the Markov's Daughter and a snippet of the...

I'm with Nisarg on this. The NPCs/monsters have what I say they have, not what the rules say they should have. Especially if I'm making the encounter up on the fly. I usually give them the same level, BAB, hit points and AC as the PCS, to make it a fair challenge. Now if it is a special NPC...

I usually pretend I'm not sure exactly what the PCs are trying to do and have them explain it to me in some detail. Usually they realize during their description if the plan has major flaws, or is something they probably shouldn't do, and drop it or change the plan significantly. If they don't...

Throwing dagger. Every character I play uses a throwing dagger as one of its weapons. Also like the bastard sword.

OK, I'm setting the leagues to draft over the weekend. Good luck, everyone. Looking forward to a fun season.

Rolling Stone and Spin, but not Entertainment Weekly? Hmmm.

You should try it. When I play one of my many female characters, I like to shave my legs and wear fishnet stockings, a garter belt and 4-inch pumps. But, you know, that's just to get into character.

We dressed up as our characters once for a gaming session that fell on Halloween, but that's it.

Welcome to the league. And congrats on achieving your posting milestone.

Usually Friday night, sometimes Saturday night if there is a conflict.

Last chance to register this week. Both leagues will probably draft this weekend.

I'm male, and I play both male characters and female characters -- it just depends on what mood I'm in, mostly. Sometimes I'll play a female character because it makes more sense -- any drow character, for example. To me, females in drow society are more powerful, so if you're going to play a...

Chapter XXXII Date: 174-993 Location: Aboard the Bray Keaven and the Marellia Landing Vasilii and Martha end up spending all of their time checking on the passengers on the trip back to Fonnein Orbital. Almost all seem to be somewhat daze if not in shock, and Martha’s limited first–aid...

Chapter XXXI Date: 174-993 Location: Nupoc Diner, Fonnein Orbital Ian continues to split his time between the monitoring the broadcast and watching the crowd. Given that the danger and drama seem to have past most of the crowd has drifted back to what they were doing before the coverage...
