    [OT] Sleep Apnea, Limes, Folic Acid and Weight Loss

    I've been doing low carb/atkins/keto for 8 months or so, off and on and I've went from 250+ to 185, blood pressure went from needs meds to perfect, and my bloodwork is looking great. Only diet that has ever really worked for me. Now I'm at the point where I'm not hardcore keto but I just don't...

    Guns in D&D - A Hot Take

    I love guns and I love D&D but I hate mixing them, especially with D&D abstract HP mechanics which are quite honestly not very good at modeling the effects of deadly weapons past L1. Though that holds for swords and bows so it shouldn't bother me more with guns.

    What paints do you use?

    Outside of washes and inks its been entirely Vallejo model and air color for awhile. For washes I use GW and Army Painter. Love the air color metals for brush on work. but I'm going to get an air brush this spring I think. I have a self made wet palette and its good but as often I just put...

    90% of D&D Games Stop By Level 10; Wizards More Popular At Higher Levels

    In my final 5e campaign they hit 10-11th level and started curb stomping demon princes so we just called that a campaign and retired the PC.

    D&D 5E (2014) JC Tweets: How Close to official rulings do you consider them to be?

    Since I'm not on Twitter I see them as much as I hear the ramblings of a street bum so you can guess my choice.

    The Battle Continues Over "Childish Things"

    There is a difference between good natured joking and ribbing and the kind of spiteful, smug crap that Maher spits out on a weekly basis. I guess many don't give him the benefit of the doubt.

    The Battle Continues Over "Childish Things"

    I think people look at hobbies like playing sports for real, collecting/shooting firearms, collecting and working on classic cars as more mature than sitting around a table pretending to be an elf. A crappy golfer will look up to Jordan Speith and fantasize about winning the Masters decked out...

    The Battle Continues Over "Childish Things"

    Gunsmoke rules. I miss the shows where the protagonist wasn't just a slightly less scumbaggy person than the antagonists...but back to the point of the thread. And is saying "well the adults of today are the ones who grew up and still love D&D, dolls, Wonder Woman comics, and My Little Pony"...

    Doctor Who (FASA)

    they are playing it at Garycon so maybe I'll try to get in the game.

    Shatner, Wheaton & More In D&D Themed Big Bang Theory Episode

    Comparing the D&D episodes of Community to what I've seen of this, its to me its plain which one is laughing at the D&D players and which one is laughing with them. IMO, YMMV. Obviously not a fan of this show but its not due to portrayal of D&D.

    The Battle Continues Over "Childish Things"

    I'm not sure its a totally incorrect perspective. In my dad's day you "grew up" and got into cars and bikes, often went into the military, played poker and card games instead of "kids" games. You had kids and a family early in your 20's, and left behind the trappings of youth for the most part...

    What are the biggest RPG crimes?

    To me metagaming is just the outcome of players playing a game and using what they know, assuming we are not talking about replaying a module. But even then what fun is replaying a module if its plot heavy and full of things that past knowledge make trivial? But anyway I hate it when a DM...

    I've got that but never played it.

    Observations on matching "One vs. Many" combat mechanics to cinematic combat

    As a DM i'm not trying to replicate another medium, I'm trying to make the fight fun in the game system. If I told the players that they couldn't gang stomp the badguy since it wouldn't be cinematic I'd get laughed at and as a player I'd be very unhappy with not getting attacks when I can...

    Remembering DC Heroes

    My favorite superhero game as a youth, I had 1e and still have the 2e books I think. A much better system than FASERIP Marvel but I was always more of a Marvel fan back then. Could handle Superman and Robin pretty easily. 3rd Ed was the same but slightly tweaked. Between this and AMSH we...

    What are the biggest RPG crimes?

    For me its cheating, not informing the group that you are going to miss, being unable to go 5 minutes without launching into a rant about the President/politics, checking out of the game when its not your turn.

    Things your table should do, but doesn't do- The Fun v. Efficiency Thread

    The Mountain Goats Announces Dungeons & Dragons-Inspired Album

    I wouldn't use Eluveitite either, or death metal. Flexor's theme song would be Hail and Kill by Manowar most likely. Maybe Victory is mine by Virgin Steele. Somethign epic and powerful and dripping with glory.
