[QUOTE="Mad_Jack, post: 7341704, member: 6750306"] I had a party of engineers and physics geeks who TPK'ed [I]themselves[/I] once - they were crossing a thin creaky ice bridge when one of the guys gets a thoughtful look on his face and breaks out a calculator... And then announces that the bridge as I described it is insufficient to hold the combined weight of the party. So of course the whole party unanimously decided that they tragically fell to their deaths and began rolling up new characters, entirely over my rather vociferous protests as the DM. In other news, I went down to the FLGS a couple days ago, and one of the guys there mentioned that they had just gotten in a collection of old lead on consignment. I asked about the prices and was told that one of the other guys was the one who talked to the person that brought it in. So I came back the next day. And somehow got talked into curating the entire collection so [I]I[/I] can tell [I]them[/I] how much to charge for them... < rolls eyes > There are somewhere over two hundred minis in the collection, and I've just finished taking pictures of all of them so I can start hitting the archives and ID them all. The up side is that I have first shot at some classic minis and will be getting to keep a few of them in exchange for the work I'm putting in. Most of it is just random old Grenadier and Ral Partha, but there's a full set of the RP Legion of Doom: Lords of the Dead set of skellies... And the human form of Takhisis from the RP Dragonlance Villains set. [/QUOTE]
