    Best Post-apocalyptic RPG?

    Ummm... wow. I got a heck of a lot more info than I expected. Thanks to EVERYONE who helped out. I'm really excited to look into some of these products. Even the ones I don't use should be fun to read. I'd love to give an overview of the story I plan to run, but I'm sure a few of my players...

    Best Post-apocalyptic RPG?

    I kind of had a feeling this was going to be the answer. I think I may just have to go with the PDFs of everything but the survivor's guide and hope they print those too someday (though the e-mail I got from the publisher suggested that it is unlikely).

    Best Post-apocalyptic RPG?

    Does anyone have any good recommendations for a post-apocalyptic RPG? Something with a feel of "The Postman" or "I am Legend" or "The Road"? I'd like to have a hardcopy of the book(s), if possible. I was looking at Darwin's World, which looks pretty awesome, but most of the stuff is only...

    Rules for Psychics in Call of Cthulu (5th edition)

    I have a CoC player who is playing a psychic. I'd like for her to have some psychic powers that are realistically balanced within the games rules. Are there non CoCd20 rules out there for handling psychic powers/abilities? If anyone has any suggestions, I'd really appreciate it! Thanks!

    Technically, I might not be. I work in a law firm, so I could actually take this a lot farther, very easily. That said, however, I'm not like that, much as some people think this thread suggests that I am. I'd rather eat the $60 than make a lawsuit out of it. I do, however, want people to...

    I'd love to just have the credit card cut them off, but I took the gift check, because it seemed like the only option. Since I received something, I can't imagine that the credit card company will do anything about it.

    I appreciate that. I will definitely look at these places. There's some other place out in Oakdale that I went to once that was a little creepy, but pretty good. Can't remember the name, though, and Oakdale is pretty far away from me now.

    I didn't want cash. I wanted a refund put back on the card.

    Also, one of the main reasons I'm posting this thread is that this is probably MN's biggest game store, and this policy is NOT clearly posted. Whether people continue to shop there or not (I'd suggest not... buy online), I want them to be aware of this.

    Well, we had the same credit card it was purchased on. It still wasn't a viable option for them. And I've shopped at TONS of small stores where cash returns were perfectly acceptable. I've even had a store mail me a check, which was fine.

    Because after 5 years of shopping regularly at the store, I think I deserve better customer service. Actually, I think anyone who goes out of their way to shop at a store rather than online deserves better customer service than that. I've spent more money with them just to support their...

    My wife and I both bought the game for each other. :)

    Minnesota Gamers - Something You Should Be Aware Of - (LGS Rant)

    I found out yesterday that our Friendly Local Gaming Store, The Source, in Falcon Heights Minnesota is not as "friendly" as they would lead us to believe. Yesterday my friend tried to return an UNOPENED $60 board game (Marvel Heroes) that he had purchased for me, for which he had a receipt. He...

    GenCon Booth/Badges?

    Sorry if I missed this somewhere, but I've been looking through the GenCon threads and haven't seen it. Is there going to be a GenCon booth this year? Where will it be? Will the message system still be in place? Also, is anyone going to be doing GenCon badges this year?

    Anyone else going to attend Con of the North?

    My gaming group will be attending Con of the North in Minnesota this year (for our first time, though we live in St. Paul) but we don't know much about it. My only con experience is with GenCon. Anyone been to Con of the North? Any regulars? What should we know? Anything we need to know...

    Help decide on a new class for a player in the Banewarrens

    One of the other combinations we looked into was rogue/ranger. It would allow him more combat moments, while still preserving some of those skills he wants.

    Help decide on a new class for a player in the Banewarrens

    Okay, just so that I don't totally look like a crappy GM here, I must say that the character he was trying to fascinate had a will of +7, rolled a 20, and had a bonus to his save because: Technically, I don't think I should have allowed the fascinate (as, "the distraction of nearby combat or...
