I honestly think that shadzar, unable to address any of my points, is...wait, seriously...trying to say I'm wrong because I'm not linking from sites he wants me to link to. ...seriously. That's really incredible. PS: I already linked an image to this rulebook, but shadzar missed it, due to his poor ...

http://www.tsrinfo.net/archive/dd1/core2.jpg Hey buddy, here you go! More rules. At any rate, I love these conversations. At this point, for shadzar to not be auto-wrong, he has to argue that rules are not rules. I love that. Everything he says rests on the premise that rules are not rules. It's ab...

Oh hey, is this 2nd ed? I won't pretend to be a D&D historian like shadzar, but I will pretend to be able to read words.

http://pcmedia.gamespy.com/pc/image/Basic13th_1092789310-001.jpg This took about five minutes of additional Google image searching, but you can see that the word "RULES" is right on the cover of the 1e book there. Five more minutes might turn up something with 2e, I dunno. But I think you...

It's sad, I know. I just don't play much D&D anymore. Perhaps some day again!

Anyone who knows how to both use Google and read English woulda found and understood this before making a thread: This my my take on the issue. Let's say Bob the board member makes the assertion: "There is an inconsistency/loophole/mechanics issue with Rule X." Several correct replies can...

Hi shadzar! Check this out. I opened the first page of my 3.5 Player's Handbook. So the page says "Dungeons & Dragons" at the top. It's got a cool sword, and the "&" symbol looks like a dragon. Cool! Right underneath that, it says "Player's Handbook." Right unde...

I don't play much D&D any more, unfortunately, but Gencon reminded me that fbmf is a cool fella, and this place is the bee's knees. If I don't post at least occasionally, someone should yell at me.

What do YOU think? Have you ever surprised any of your players with a well-placed trap before? Also, do you favor subtle or obvious traps? I personally prefer to leave at least some clues to the nature of a trap in any game that I run, so players don't need to constantly check for them. I feel that ...

It was. On a related note, I just got Settlers and Bang! in the mail today. Life is good!

Wow, you guys have all earned yo' PHD (yo' Playa Hatin' Degree).

1155959479[/unixtime]] Was it "abuse Oberoni" week or something? [br][br]Yes. But he really brought it upon himself when he declared war on all three of the other players at the same time. More than once, in more than one different game. Ahh...good times. [br][br]Ramnza [br][br]It was onl...

Lago, don't stop rockin.'

1155787735[/unixtime]]Was it "abuse Oberoni" week or something? He was being abused horribly during BANG! also[br][br]though, he wasnt the first person shot at >.< I was! [br][br]We have a theory that, for any given game, you and The Count will simply blow the shit out of each other as so...

I recall getting pretty cranky about that. Zherog was actually making illegal plays to jack me over. Quite annoying.

P.S. I think the Wild Turkey added to my crankiness.

1155781391[/unixtime]][br]But yes, the crowning glory had to be abusing Oberoni when we played Catan. :) [br][br]On a relatively related note, I learned in Settlers that if the three other players all have a settlement around a "6," don't drop a robber there at the beginning of the game.[...

At least Phonelobster is actually answering my questions.[br][br] I said no and I mean no. You do not respond on the same scale. You respond in accordance to law and justice, niether of which actually involve blowing random shit up on any scale at all as a matter of fact. [br][br]Ok, let's go to &qu...

1155619065[/unixtime]]If you think this thread is about Israel, then you probably think that song is about you.[br][br]The topic isn't Israelis killed, it's Lebonese, Palestinians. Killed with US ammunition and in a fight which the US approved of, and then the US was the only dissenting voice from ...

1155615370[/unixtime]][br]Invade - as a response to repeated airstrikes, occupation of Palestine, who knows what...[br][br]Kidnap it is citizens... First, your grammar is terrible, second, these were soldiers , captured. Sorry, but you can't kidnap soldiers who have and are using arms against your ...

Crissa, I'm still curious about your response to these questions o' mine:[br][br] When Israel (or any nation, really) suffers a 'minor' attack from another country, should they sit back and wait to see if it gets worse?[br][br]Should they try to respond on the same scale as the attackers? If so, wil...

Now, that isn't to say that when we write the paladin that he isn't going to get atonement as a spell-like ability at first level. Because, hey, I don't think you can even do real Good if you can't do that. But it does mean that we're probably going to be holding out on the Tome of Virtue until the...

1155596717[/unixtime]]Y'know, I just read all seven (so far) pages of that sh!t, having to actually go back and re-register on the Wizards boards to do so, and I cannot believe how much crap the foil action's received. I just went back and reread the class feature. It's not even available until Ftr...

So Crissa, what is your position?[br][br]When Israel (or any nation, really) suffers a 'minor' attack from another country, should they sit back and wait to see if it gets worse?[br][br]Should they try to respond on the same scale as the attackers? If so, will this help prevent future attacks? Why?[...

GenCon was extremely fantastic. I had an absolute blast. I think I drank a bit too much/too quickly Saturday night, but I just had a minor headache the next day, thanks to fbmf waking me from my drunken stupor and suggesting I drink lots and lots of water.[br][br]The Ariochs had freakin' awesome Whi...

Wedge's got this.
