X4: Master of the Desert Nomads - OOC

[Leif]

Looks like we need to all get together and make Leif a cheat sheet of which rules apply where!

I'll probably just lose it.

Excellent point.

Hey Leif, what's up with your dislike of all the good spells?

I don't need a dervish giving me advice on what spells to pick, thank you very much! I just don't like Glitterdust. The reason that I avoided taking magic missile had more to do with me wanting to make Bevin a dedicated enchanter. Yeah, this turned out to be the wrong game for that, didn't it? I'm not really happy with things, and for about 2 coppers I'd quit this game. But it is fascinating, in a morbid sort of way, to see just how badly Bevin can get screwed. hehehehe

You know, the whole idea of a Dwarf wizard is kinda crazy anyway, so I thought why not make everything about Bevin be on the weird side. At least kinem allowed the switch from wizard to beguiler.

I only play a dervish in this one game.

While tradionally weird, from a numbers standpoint a dwarf actually makes a surprisingly good wizard.

Did I say 'dervish'? I meant 'butthole.'

Maybe, if you totally ignore how magic-resistant dwarves are.

Exactly...less chance of their spells being turned around on them.

Not necessarily. There have been a number of opponents immune to mind affecting spells, but also many that were not. Bevin was very effective against the human commander the party fought just before this.

Feel like talking about it, Leif? Why are you not happy with the game?

Many? A couple, maybe, some even, but I think 'many' may be stretching it just a tad.

Ok, that's one.

Feel like talking about it, Leif?

No, not really.

Why are you not happy with the game?

I'm just having my weekly bitch session. Nothing to worry about. Witness the frequency with which I post to your threads, kinem. Feel better yet?

 

[Rhun]

One big, happy adventuring party!

Also note...there have been at least a couple of encounters, including the current one, in which Aram's scimitars aren't the best weapons in the world too.

Or, even better, in the words of Bruce Willis as John McClean,

"Yippie Ki Ay M***** F*****"
