I quite liked Edgerunners despite the anime tropes. Edgerunners did more interesting things with cyberpsychosis than R. Talsorian Games did for more than thirty years.

I think the Gilded Age makes for a good cyberpunk setting. You have new technologies transforming the world, often being adapted and used in a manner nobody expected, you have a fairly large rift between the haves and the have nots, laborers working dangerous jobs were not compensated properly...

I haven't seen every Kubrick movie, but Eyes Wide Shut is my least favorite. When I saw it, I just thought to myself, "What the $#%% did I just watch?" I like 2001, but my wife is still angry I "made" her watch it with me back around 1999 as she found it to be one of the most boring in the...

Hit points are abstract representations of how much damage a character can suffer and just about any such a system is bound to be absurd when examined too closely or taken too literally. Of course in the narrative, getting hit doesn't really mean you have less luck than you did before. It...

You can buy a life sized Drizzt from WizKids for $1,500. When fully assembled he stands at a mighty 5 feet 7 inches (170 mighty centimeters), comes with a removable hood/cloak, and his two magical swords. My FLGS in Little Rock has one that stands in the corner and keeps an eye on Magic...

Look, pal! I only recently accepted the fact the Clans were here to stay and would remain a part of Battletech forever. Don't go trying to drive a wedge between me and the Clans!

Historically speaking, ammo explosions in tanks typically result in catastrophic damage taking it out of the fight. NATO tanks are typically designed to channel such explosions in a manner that makes it more likely the crew survives, but the tank is still out of commission. I imagine when the...

Honestly, who would have thought a thread about the destruction of Earth, where I keep all my stuff, would have something even sadder?

“Yes, Lord Vader, I have reached the main power generators. The shield will be down in moments. You may start your landing.” General Veers.

It should chap my hide to hear someone say they’re boycotting my country, but I can only sigh to myself, understanding your reasonable point of view.

I've had a pirate idea kicking around in my head for a bit. Golden Age of pirates, circa 1680-1700. The Devil has come down to the Caribbean looking for a soul to steal, and he's in a bind, because he's way behind, so he's looking to making a deal. So he makes a deal with the PCs, damned they...

I'm with you there. I'd like the game to run a little bit quicker, but at the same time I don't want it to change too radically. I only recently accepted Clans were going to be a part of the game forever, I can only adapt so quickly.

The History Channel, back before they did Pawn Stars and Ice Road Truckers, had a series where they discussed specific weapons from different times and places, went into detail on how they were used, and had some experts teach people how to use them. I remember they had an episode on axes and...

I'm interested. I straight up haven't played a game since 2019, and although it was nice, the game really shows its age and I think it needs to be streamlined a bit.

I ran Pirates of the Spanish Main which used the Savage Worlds rules and was based on the constructible collectible strategy game of the same name made by WizKids. The premise of the campaign was the PCs were privateers betrayed by their captain resulting in their imprisonment on a Spanish hulk...

Another Legion squad done.
