    [Serenity RPG] Across the 'Verse: Old Friends

    Derek, outside Second Life Ships and Scrap This time they'd made Derek sit for a credit check before they let him inspect her. That had gone predictably; afterwards, the manager had refused to even discuss price with him, and sent him off. His luck and his finances had gone south ever since...

    [Serenity RPG] Across the 'Verse: Introductions

    It had been good, and not altogether surprising, to see the captain here, even if Aaron did think it was barkin' at a knot to keep chasin' that lost ship. Even if she really was somewhere on this damned mudrock, the captain looked as broke and desperate as ever. But Aaron just hadn't...

    My son is new to the hobby - which game to start him on?

    (Sorry - initially posted this in the wrong forum) Hi all, It's been a long while since I've been around - I stopped gaming to concentrate on RL issues just before 3.5 hit, and now things have gone all 4.0 on me, and meanwhile my shelf is still full of 1E stuff. Happily my son is just about...

    Feh.

    Hi everyone. Real life stresses (mostly business-related, but inevitably having effects on our family, too.) have been building for the last couple months. I've been expecting RL to ease up and get back to normal, but it looks like this will be 'normal' for a while, so unfortunately it's time...

    In the Mead-Hall of Hrothgar

    Two score and more have gathered before King Hygelac of the Göts in his hall, to hear Beowulf’s challenge. Today, all will know their king’s metel, and whether the Scyld-Danes would still, in years to come, be troubled. For although Hrothgar, the Danes' king, had implored the great Ring-Giver...

    This is a relatively simple question - I just ordered Grim Tales, but don't have D20 Modern. Will that be a big problem for me, or can I get by well without it?

Anyone configure these (we have two 1720 models with t1 CSU/DSU WICs)...
