Making this more realistic: Have the pit be topped off by a foot or so of brackish water. Let there be various skeletons of rats and things floating in the water -- and deeper. Remove the rope (the environment is hostile to it, so why have it?), and put a few recessed grooves in the wall to...

Sure. The question is, what does “Roll20 reward“ mean, and how involved is Roll20 in providing a reward? If there is substantial work that must be done by Roll20 to create the award, then the Roll20 statement seems fine. If the award is simply a dataset that any current Roll20 user can import...

I’m thinking that promise of support can only be accomplished with the assistance of Roll20. Then, claiming Roll20 provide support would be similar to stating that Apple would be building the use of a specific application into iOS. Tom Bitonti

Their text could use a clean up. They present two specific problems: Unauthorized trademark use, and unapproved promises of Roll20 support. But they conclude with “to have unauthorized use removed from the site.”, which matches the first problem, but is a bad match for the second. Better...

I wonder if we really have our conceptions properly centered. Is it possible that T-Rex was the equivalent of a carnivorous dung beetle, feasting on the carcasses of a large and rapidly turning over population of herbivores, and only occasionally opportunistically taking down injured or...

So, about range size: How much of a difference would there because the environmental conditions were quite a bit different then. I wonder what effect differences in ocean salinity, solar radiance, and atmospheric composition would have as to the amount of energy flowing through the environment...

Plus, one apparently does not simple ingest the raw herb. There is a preparation, and an ice bath. The necessary steps may be hard to perform without particular knowledge. TomB

For the destruction of the garden to be dramatically meaningful, replacement of the garden must not be easy. Potential difficulties could be slow growth of the herb, or scarcity of growing sites. The herb might require just the right amount of vibranium, or chemical variation of vibranium, and...

I get the feeling that both this and WandaVision are providing transitional pivots to the next major content phase. Important themes and background points are being presented in these TV shows. I expect there will be many plot lines which will remain open well into the movies. TomB

It would seem that an exhaustion mechanic could help. Actually, I‘d go with three: Exhaustion: Str + Con + Training Focus: Int + Wis + Training Charm: Cha + Dex + Training All classes would have pools which could be consumed to bolster actions. The pools would recover more quickly than hit...

It seems that the effect on Rogers was amplified by the Vita rays. The current batch of super soldiers don't seem to have been enhanced physically to the same extent. I can't tell if the Russian supersolders were changed. They seem to have started bulked out, so it's hard to tell. TomB

Points at self. "some issues" is a huge understatement. Enuf said. Carry on! TomB

It is curios that the MCU is continuing to build ambiguity into the blip. Less nationalism and more cooperation during the blip vs the apparent return to nationalism and displacement camps after. And the appearance of the apparently badly functioning Global Repatriation Council. TomB

I think Zeno he has incomplete information, and is correct working from that incomplete information. I expect that almost no-one knows Wanda’s involvement. But, his focus on super soldiers seems overstated. Zemo was anti-Avengers, with super soldiers being just one example of what he is...

Wasn’t Tony manipulated by Wanda? His fears were amplified and he was given a strong push. A claim can be made that he wasn’t entirely of a right mind when he made Ultron. TomB

I prefer the idea that the serum amplifies what is already there. Walker was already fractured. The break was there just not expressed. The serum brought the break to the surface and amplified it. I imagine Walker was broken by His actions in his prior service. That he had counseling by the...

In regards to the current trial, that seems to be about casual brutalilty; an indifference to suffering and harm. Walker’s rage seems to be an entirely different creature. If I were deploying assets I would give Walker a hard pass unless the situation was truly desperate. Uncontrollable...

Was the breakdown due to the serum? The serum may have helped to push him over the edge, but he seemed to be about to break even without the serum. What the serum did was to keep him in the fight. The serum made the fall deeper. TomB

Well, it looked like killing was entirely unnecessary. The guy was down and out when new cap killed him. It seemed that the killing served New cap’s rage. Would the killing be justified if the guy had surrendered and had ceased to offer resistance? TomB

The other matter is that Isaiah should be between 90 and 110 years old in 2020. That is, if he were between 20 to 40 in 1950. Plus, he may have had rough treatment for decades. That would add years to his effective age. TomB
