Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... This is from an old pulp hero game of mine the hero's had been dungeon delving and had just come across a room with a shiny silver floor. the floor was really 3inches of mercury (just enough for a human to float) GM (me): you see a room with a vaulting roof and an odd metallic silver floor Rocketeer:*leans over and rubs the floor* i think this is mercury! Player: wait isn't mercury posion? Montana Smith (indiana jones): not in 1935 it isn't the party then "walked" across the floor it got really interesting on there way out when they had to battle nazis while balancing on the mercury ahh... good times

Re: Wow....that is a useless power for sure.... see the anime Princess Tutu its all about mystical ballet battles

Re: Necrons nope the necrons origonaly fught with the creators of the eldar and mankind the chaos gods were later given birth to by the eldar, humanity, humanity, and humanity respectivly they are the orgionally bad guys, and now there back and there coming for you!

Re: Necrons you forgot that their gods eat suns and are "THE" ancient evil of the galaxy but other than that great description

Re: Necrons subtle he is not

Re: Necrons thats a great idea Schwarzwald and to start ill make their regen not ressurection, and see how the players handle that, if all goes well then ill make it ressurection, if not.... well new characters for everyone YAY!!! thanks

Re: Necrons yes i am refering to the 40k necrons, forgot to clear that up thanks for the link

first of all if your in my game, and you know who you are, dont read this im planning on brining in the necrons into my game and was wonder if any of you out there had ideas on how to write them up note: i want them to be killable, cause it just an't fair to the players if their immortal killer bots. in particular im looking for the warriors, the lords and the nightbringer himself if you have any ideas please post them or send me an email: mahonc2@comcast.net thanks nightbringer

Re: My new campaign Know that you metion it my inner historian was begining to bug me too. about time i took care of him DIE! *scuffle* *sock* *pow* *blam* *thud* oh god what have i done?! i needed that to live! *thud*

Re: My new campaign thank you guys for the advice, i am not too worried about it being realistic. i ran my first session and everyone had a blast. the game ran well, the players had fun, and so did I. and thats all that really matters, when you are running a game, isn't it? well thanks for the help guys!

Re: My new campaign thanks for yours guys input. the campaign is going to be some what akkin to the xbox game crimson skies (fun game) the group (about 5-6 people) will be a group of mercenaries the british have hired to, in the begining at least, stop the raids on one of there shipping lanes with america. and as far as science goes it will be very rubber

i'm starting a new pulp hero game. i just wanted you guys to take a look at my setting and history and tell me what you think and critique it Historical Overview • Count Ferdinand von Zeppelin had his first successful airship flight in 1898 in Germany. • The Wright brothers died in 1899 in a tragic fire. • 1900 zeppelin travel becomes commonplace • 1905 first plane invented, flew for 30 seconds before crashing • 1914 the first world war is started • 1916 United States declares neutrality and supplies both sides of the war • 1928 WW1 ends in a draw when Britain signs the treaty of Paris. As part of the treaty Germany gave Britain back the lower half of England in return for the western part of France. Leaving Germany a rather large holding of land (i attached a map) • 1935 (present) an uneasy peace exists between Germany and the rest of Europe. The US has become an economic power house buy selling supplies to both sides. and then i have the airship stuff writen up here: Airships Primary compartments Bridge: main command center of airship • Captain’s chair: where the captain commands from. Can communicate to the rest of the ship • Helm: directly in front of captain’s chair. Steers the ship and controls throttle. • Navigator’s desk: located to the right of the captain’s chair. Navigator plots course and calls out directions to the Helm • Communications. Directly behind Chair. Radio operator sends and receives communications. • Fighter Command (Military only) located to the left of the chair. coordinates fighters by relaying information from the look-outs Engine Room: where the diesel engines, that power the ship, are located. It is also possibly, but difficult to steer the ship from here First aid station: where the medical supplies are located and the doctor works. In some larger ships, mainly military, this can be more like a small hospital. Captain’s Quarters: where the captain spends his time when he is not on deck Crew Quarter’s: where the crew spends there down time and where they sleep Passenger quarters: this is where passengers stay on a passenger liner. On a cargo ship this would be the cargo hold. Fore/Aft/Starboard/Port lookout: these lookouts keep an eye out for pirates and obstacles. All are armed with machineguns, just in case Crow’s nest: same as lookouts Armory: where personal fire arms are kept. Most ships care a few rifles in pistols. However mercenaries and military ships may care quite a bit more and usually have heavier arms Hanger: where the ships fighters or support craft dock to refuel Turrets: some ships have more turrets on then for extra protection. let me know what you guys think and feel free to make comments, suggestions, and to critique it all you want. -Night

in most pulp movies the main hero fights nazi, or someother evil army two questions for the members of this board first, has anyone used nazi, or their equivelent? second, does anyone mind sharing there write up?
