    Fighting from horseback

    --Firing from horseback when moving at more than a walk (60ft/round is the base, IIRC) incurs a penalty, -4 for a double move, -8 for running and there's a -12 in Sidewinder for something more jarring, but I don't recall the specifics. The Blaze of Saddle feat reduces these penalties in half...

    Game Scheduling for August 5-7

    Sunday afternoon and evening aren't ideal for us, but we can be flexible. I think, as usual, we prefer Saturday. :)

    Game Scheduling for July 29-31

    Nico and I will be in Florida for my cousin's wedding that weekend, so we're out. There's also a very good chance that I'll be out Aug 12-14, as well, as that weekend looks like it'll be when I have to make my last trip to Saskatoon.

    Explosions in London

    Okay, I can confirm it now. There's a bit on the security of mass transit systems in DC and NY on the front page of The Washington Post.

    Explosions in London

    There've been reports here in DC that security on the Metro has been increased, including guys with SMGs. I can't confirm as I haven't been on the train since 7:30 this morning at which point there wasn't any, at least at my stations. It's possible it's only some stations or an errant report...

    Just curious...are any of you non-d20 gamers who hang around here for the friendship?

    I don't consider myself a d20 gamer, though my group is mostly just that (currently playing a d20M/Sidewinder game, which is fun) and I continue to hang out here. Mostly lurk, but there's usually something interesting going on. That and Dumpshock never works when I want it to. :p

    A Kingdom of Ashes (Zombies! Pirates! Giant Lizards! Intrigue!) UPDATED 07/01/05!!

    HA! :lol: For some reason this amused me. I think our biggest challenge was ourselves. :)

    Am I alone in this?

    Heck yeah! With grits on the side. With lots of butter and sugar. YUM!

    funny words

    I think, perhaps, you mean 'mukluk', which is a very comfortable slipper type thing very popular for keeping one's feet warm in the depths of the Canadian winter. :)

    Am I alone in this?

    Just standard, run-of-the-mill onions you'll find in any major grocery store. I prefer them to the purple ones, though I do like the sweeter onions. But I don't want my onions polluted by any burgers! :lol:

    Am I alone in this?

    Whew. It's nice to know I'm not the only one. :) The rest of my family think it's very strange. My mom had to become used to me as a little kid reaching up and stealing raw onion slices as she cut them up. Heck, even now, if there's cut onion for hamburgers, I'll eat them separate from the...

    Your favorite pizza toppings?

    *Giggle* :p

    Am I alone in this?

    Similar, but not the same. I like tomato sauce/paste, so long as it's well-spiced and well-pureed. I do not like tomatos in any other form, raw, cooked, cold or warm. If it's identifiable as a tomato and not red sauce, I don't like it. But I love raw onions, while mostly disliking them cooked.

    Your favorite pizza toppings?

    Tasty! :eek: Actually, that particular pizza is not terribly heavy on sauce. It's mostly just cheese with chicken and broccoli. And quite delicious.

    Behind the Veil Miniatures

    They're larger than 15mm, I consider that a victory! :) But I keep running into wargame minis looking for good Russian cavalry figures. It was the variety that really provided the impetus for posting this, more than anything else.

    Your favorite pizza toppings?

    White sauce, of course. I'm not sure if it's an Alfredo sauce, but it's definitely not tomato based!

    Behind the Veil Miniatures

    Hmmm...works for me. Try going to http://www.dixon-minis.com/ and scrolling down to 'Old West' on the left hand side. If that doesn't work then something is screwing with it on your side. :)

    Behind the Veil Miniatures

    Found a site here with a bunch of old west minis: http://www.dixon-minis.com/dixoncatalogue.asp?maintype=12 Might be some things of interest there. There's a wide selection covering all kinds of characters at any rate.

    Your favorite pizza toppings?

    From standard pizza places meat is the only way to go, whether meat lover's or just pepperoni. I also really enjoy ham and pineapple. But I loathe with an ungodly passion typical pizza vegetables (green peppers, mushrooms, and though I like onions, they have no place on my pizza). There's a...

    Top 10 Reasons to Take 20 Levels in A Base Class

    Very true. Part of the reason with the monk is that there were no good PrCs that fit the character. He really was quite suited to be a monk. And that's what he was. But I don't think I've ever multiclassed a 3.0/3.5 character, though the number I've played for a reasonable period of time is...
