I just woke up and I need to play a little Real-World catch-up, I'll post later today.
The Storm Giant could use the axe perfectly well, seeing as he is Huge and it is only one size larger that he, it was a two handed axe for him.
Durgo does not need any more AC, what are you thinking....He needs a few levels in Rogue, man wouldn't the enemies crap a brick of mithril when they saw him dodging Fireballs...
Vespazian will just have to stick with Potins, alas, unless he wants to go a different path in profession.
For those who didn't see notes on my Gencon trip, a repeat.
Back from Gencon...tired.
High Points
1:
Played 'D&D', as in original D&D with a,shall we say, 'out of it' Dave Arneson. You know, the guy who was there at the beginning?
For ferretguy,Judd played as well.

2:I met Brom, my #1 fave artist (I'll be posting a pick of he and I doing the 'metal devils horns' when my friend Robin develops them, so you guys besides ferretguy can see my ugly mug.Brom was humble and really very cool.
3:Um..some stuff that I can't mention on here, ahem..., ferretguy, I'll tell you in person
4

layed Warhammer Fantasy RP (my other fave RPG) and I FINALLY got to sell my soul to Tzeentch, Changer of the Ways..right before a Slaneeshi Cultist eviscerated me...still, it was fun.
5: Found some good mexican food (ate there 2 times sat and today as I was heading out of town...Mmm...tamales).
6: Played Warmachine, a very cool minis game.

layed a new game 'Hall Bowling' with this frickin huge D20 that the RPGA gave away with membership,I mean...some other butt was playing it and I observed him at 5am...
10:A Cheerleader Convention was taking place in the same Convention Center...
Low Points
1::I forgot my bag of Game Books...in the rush to get on the road.
2: Didn't find the good food until Sat, bad sandwiches and pizza before that (Ugh...)
3:No Confrontation games...
4:As usual at these things, everything was selling for retail (you think you'd get a discount for paying 55 bucks to sit around frthe weekend).
5: Dave Arneson's 'Back in the Old Days' stories...they really were worth the game (which was rather like the games you played when you were 12...).
6:That kid who ruined Boba Fett was there...I didn't bite his nose off, regardless of what he did to my childhood hero.
7:Except for Brom and Shattner, the autographs were all 20 bones each...ugh.
This was described on the website as a noiminal fee...
8:There were 1200 people in an area the size of a massive sports stadium...someone is losing their job in the PR/advert departments...
The individual events were all $, from 1.50 to 5 bucks. After the entrance fee, that sort of blowed, you know?
9:Couldn't check Enworld...
10:That Cheerleader Convention (takes a MOMENT to wipe away the tears), was starting right as we were leaving. We were slated to stay another day, see the beach, drive up Hgy 1/the Coast, but one of our guy's wives became really ill, and he wouldn't let up until he was on the way home.
Dammit, we missed the cheerleader convention...
