Chicago Gameday - The Aftermath

[Quickbeam]

Well Kent, since the two PC's I was most theoretically interested in playing have been snagged, I'll rely on your guidance to select from the remaining three character options. I really don't have much preference at this juncture, so let me know which one will provide the best intro to Weird Wars...or at least prove most useful to this mission.

Matty:
I'll either play one of the shaolin monks or your typical sneaky, egocentric, gloryhound journalist. I'm leaning towards the latter, but would be happy as Liu Kang from Mortal Kombat .

I'm not averse to changing and "doubling up" on some of the character types.

But the group will need an officer and a medic of some sort is always useful.

I'd love to see you barking out orders (and the other PCs reacting to the orders) and would suggest you try him. Let's take this offline and maybe tweak your character ("Joseph Holiday") a little.

And if that doesn't work, there's always the Little Orphan Girl.

As it is written, so it shall be done .
This guy just sounds like Bruce Willis to me, so that's how I'm gonna play him. Harry Stamper with a little of this and a touch of that mized in.

Hellfire and damnation, Holiday! Let's send them Nazis back to the Pits!

Oh, it had, it just wasn't very widespread. The first "broadcast" was in the 1930s (I think) and for some reason I keep thinking Pittsburg, PA.

But, apparently between 1942-1944 - German broadcasts from Paris via Eiffel Tower (according to http://www.tvhistory.tv/1942-1945.htm ). In the movie "Contact" don't the aliens send back a picture of Hitler, because it was one of the first things broadcast by earth?

Anyway, that'd be a great Weird Wars game--foiling the German TV "weapon" in Paris--with appropriate "Weird Wars" twists, of course. Hmmmm, the Eiffel Tower as an animated construct....

Television is the voice of the Devil! Hellfire and damnation!

Laser beams? Not....yet.

He's yours. Definitely one of my favorite PCs for this game.

'Giant frickin' laser beams'..? He's a pawn of SATAN! Hellfire and damnation!

Rowport - Based on your wish, you'll get a Synnibarr character.

-Matt

EDIT - forgot to say who I was talking to! Silly Matty.

Synnibar?! Hellfire and damnation!

...oh, wait... wrong game.

Matty Helms?! Hellfire and damnation!

Hellfire and damnation, Holiday! Let's send them Nazis back to the Pits!

You been spiking that holy water and drinking it from yer canteen again Jenkins? You just make sure these other boys are ready to do what's right and that God's behind them when the time comes!!

I've never been to one of the gamedays but I'm intersted in signing up for the D&D miniatures game and learning a bit more about it. By the 28th, the ones I ordered should have arrived and I'd like to get a chance to play with more people.
