Re: Small Killing Robot and Remote Piloted Bullets You've been watching the movie Runaway one too many times for your own good, haven't you? Major Tom 2009

Re: Identify the Source This sounds like it might have been taken from the French Revolution (or at least Mel Brooks's...unique...take on said event). Major Tom 2009

Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... And on top of that, you're actually letting them read the Necronomicon cover to cover?! In that case, they'd better be prepared to team up with a certain chainsaw- wielding S-Mart clerk, 'cause they're about to find themselves up to their back- sides in Deadites. Major Tom 2009

Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... Cthuloid insanity, a misanthropic gnoll, and Smut Fields galore...I so wish your campaigns were being run over here. There's never a dull moment in any of them. Wrona Bors...now that sounds like the Production Company That The Screen Actors' Guild Was Not Meant To Know. Major Tom 2009

Re: Holding the end of the world Powerstar: given that his FTL speed is 8 light years per second, it's within the realm of possibility that he could outrun the annihilation wave from the Mystic Artifact of Cosmic Mass Destruction -- once he got it far enough away from the Earth, that is. Hell, it worked for the Enterprise in Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan. Major Tom 2009

Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... Stay tuned for the next episode: "Altitude Is Everything", or "Location, Location, Location". Major Tom 2009

Re: Sci-fi Champions Mongoose recently released a book of deck plans for the primary ships of the B5 universe (for their Traveller product line). In addition, the Battlestar Galactica RPG has a color section showing the deck layout of the ship itself. Major Tom 2009

Re: Genre-crossover nightmares Zombie Power! There, I finished it for you (). Major Tom 2009

Re: Genre-crossover nightmares Mutant Zombie Commie Traitors...now that'd be an interesting twist for a Paranoia campaign. Major Tom 2009

Re: Genre-crossover nightmares Don't know if anyone's done this CGN, but here it is anyway: The 47 Ronin Warriors. Major Tom 2009

Re: Warp Drive article on the Discovery website There were actually two episodes of ST: tNG where the quantum singularity power source of the Romulan ships was part of the story to one extent or another; the one in which Troi was altered to look like a Romulan in order to get some defectors/dissidents to safety, and the other one in which both the Enterprise and a Romulan Warbird were stuck in an area of space where time passed at different rates (slow, fast, or in reverse).

Re: Hyborean Dancing Girls Of course, it goes without saying that the special 'barbarian abduction' insurance assumes that the girls were actually abducted, instead of running off with said bar- barians of their own free will. Major Tom 2009

Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... You forgot to include "inside trader" in Zero's description. Weldun, on the other hand...sounds like the poor bugger ran smack dab into a Porn Singularity rather than the usual Smut Field that seems to be par for the course for this particular group of players.

Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... This puts me in mind of the following statement: "Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch. Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote." - Benjamin Franklin Major Tom 2009

Re: Can one make a base that is also a vehicle? I don't see why you couldn't make something with the properties of both a base and a vehicle. Take the Jawa Sandcrawler from Star Wars, for example. That thing was, for all practical intents and purposes, a humongous mobile home on treads. Major Tom 2009

Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... Hmmm...sounds like a group that Agent Belle should think about recruiting for the Agency. They're certainly eccentric enough. Major Tom 2009

Re: Condiment King I prefer to think of it as liberally garnishing the subject. Major Tom 2009

Re: Video Hits Nope. The Goren I'm talking about is the Vincent D'nofrio character on Law and Order: Criminal Intent. His character (Det. Robert Goren) has this little quirk that comes out when he's questioning a suspect in an interrogation room: he bends at the waist between 80 and 90 degrees while cocking his head to look sideways at the questionee. While the response to what the characters in the episode of Crusade were seeing wasn't quite that pronounced, they were tilting their heads almost 90 degrees onto their shoulders trying to get a bet- ter look at the act being depicted -- which the Excalibur's doctor had des- cribed earlier as being physically impossible. As to the medical procedure you included in your post, I hadn't even heard of it until now. Major Tom 2009
