The Hive is (realy) Dead! Long Live the Hive Mind!

[Aurora]

Okay. I'm bored and depressed.


I will either go upstairs and watch a movie then sleep or slit my wrists and sleep.

The decision may come down to what is in the fridge to possibly eat while watching a movie and the movie selection I have to watch.....

((HUGS))

I hope you are feeling better today Mega.

You have friends here you know.

Been there done that. What fragmented the group I was with that played every friday night was one person decided to do tournaments. Suddenly EVERYONE wasn't allowed to form theme only teams, NO house rules were allowed and to top it off, when he did win he would gloat and force it in our face. Between that and how they handled the Galactus figure and began to make my figures "outdated" I quit the game. The last set I bought all of was Critical Mass.

I stopped right around Clobberin' Time, and it had Hawkeye and all I really wanted out of the set was Hawkeye. I only purchased 4 boosters of CT and got 2 UR's, and 0 Hawkeye. Now just the rookie version is like $5 on the secondary market.

The kids are keeping it to what it is supposed to be- fun. I will not discourage them from that. It is still quality time shared between us. I would just prefer DnD but the rules are still hard for them (ages 8 +11). Besides- its all a fad.

I'm just waiting for Wizkids to die a horrible death because they have put out so many bad games. The only thing they even put out any more is HeroClix, MechWarrior, and the Pirates game. There's HorrorClix as well, but that's only got a niche market, but it might work. They totally scewed up MechWarrior by making the smaller units better than the Mech's, and added aircraft which were (I hate saying this word but I've heard it brandied around many a MW message board) BROKEN.

Last year it was the Overpower card game when they found that. Then DnD and now its Heroclix.

Overpower is a long dead game. I guess your kids got the we like super heroes gene from one of you. If you want to involve them in RPG's look for the Marvel Super Heroes RPG by TSR in PDF somewhere. It was a good game and I got involved in it around the age of your youngest child. It was kind of chart heavy, but not as much as D&D is, and character advancement is kind of slow, but I did not care because I was playing a super hero. The character creation is random too but only 2D10 needed for everything in the entire game.

HeroClix is a fad they will soon get tired of and want to move on. Just be ready with all sorts of alternatives.

Jusat my 1/4 pound.

[Hugs] Hopefully there's something in fridge you like. I'm sure you'll find a good movie.

Warmed up some baked ham, put on english muffin and watched Spider-man 3 preview and about twenty minutes of Monster House.

Sorry to disappoint- but I'm still here.

 

[megamania]

Overpower is dead (by like 7 years now) but it was fun and simple. I even made cards for Valiant Comics.

Heroclix is fun I just can't swing that AND DDM. DnD is first and so the kids will need to deal with the roughly 200 heroes/villians I have.

Really seems quiet around here. One post a person roughly and not all Hivers appeared in the last 15 hours or so.

Later folks.

 

[megamania]

well now I've done it. I got POd and spoke nasty about a popular person here on the Forums.

If kicked off- Have a good 2007 folks. Be seeing you.

What did you say Mega?

 

[Dog Moon]

Man, I'm bored and tired. No one is coming [dealing with people passes the time and keeps me awake], only a couple of people are calling, it's warm [making me feel even more tired]. I want to go home right now and nap, though I know that even if I went home right now, by the time I got there, I'd be awake and want to do something.

Sometimes I don't mind work, sometimes I like work, but right now, I'd rather be almost anywhere else.

 

[Dog Moon]

Aw, no one's here to listen to my complaints. Hehe, y'all should probably feel luck.
