Great Game Day!
Hey, folks!
Thanks to all for a *GREAT GAME DAY*! This one was a new high-mark for me on the fun scale. I had a great time running my first GameDay event, made fantastic by the wonderful players who all were completely into the campy feel of the game. Thanks to the cast:
Thorindale as Bobby
brehobit as Diana
Yort as Hank
pbartender as Presto
buzz as Shiela
sw3333 as Eric
All the players were well into character, but I have to give a special shout-out to pbartender for *ACTUALLY RHYMING EACH AND EVERY SPELL THAT HE CAST THE WHOLE GAME..!* And, to sw3333 for playing Eric as the gloriously cowardly bastard that he is.
I would be remiss if I did not highlight to the gaming world that this illustrious crew *PUT THE BEAT-DOWN ON VENGER*! And, I did not even have to cheat as a DM to let them do it; I just applied the same crappy tactics that he actually displayed in the cartoon. Throw arcane sphere... rinse and repeat. Presto actually knocked himself into negative hit points with his last heroic effort to polish off the BBEG, too.
Buzz's afternoon 1E Gamma World game was quite an experience..! The setting and characters were hilarious and well-written, with all the players doing a fantastic job playing them up. Reid's 'munchkin-speak' and Trev's robotic "ha-ha-ha" were the high points for me. Of course, nothing could actually be as funny as the rules themselves (and I use the term "rules" rather lightly here).
I am glad that I survived to eat some more brains. I do feel bad about that poor, poor lonely robot going through his motions for eternity. At least he has the abandoned munchkin corpses to keep him company. LOL
Thanks to thalmin and Buzz for hosting and planning. Thanks to Mark CMG and Tavis (sorry, I forget your screen name?) for the prize support! I am really digging the Stirge book-- your knowledge of biology shows through. And, for the anonomous dude (chick?) who donated your 2003 Games Workshop magazine, THANKS!! I am going to use the instructions to create a custom beastman mini!
See everybody next time!
