  1. Been there... My early 20s, 10k of calories was my norm.
  2. Been watching Adventure Time and it's quite the surreal Post Apocalyptic story
  3. And the champions ones are available that way via warehouse23 http://www.warehouse23.com/products?utf8=✓&per_page=48&keywords=cardboard+heroes
  4. The Fantasy Trip kickstarter just ended, but people can pre-order stuff from it, including add ons. One add on is the entire library of SJ Cardboard Heroes for $25. https://thefantasytrip.backerkit.com/hosted_preorders/143513
  5. I'm back to where Mt. Hood is the volcanic threat, but Mt. Ranier would cause friends some issues. Just from ash though. My wife's aunt lives pretty close to Cancer and friend's in Fall City.
  6. Costs in Gurps are based on hard they are to get, costs in Hero are generally how effective they are in combat. #grossoversimplification
  7. Thankfully I have outlived most of the assassins.
  8. I've been taking to biking again now that we're back in Portland. It really is a rule, though I've always had a healthy respect for larger masses getting the right of way. The only times I go thru lights is after making sure something isn't going to try to kill me. When I was in the Bay Area and without a car, I had a 20 mile commute, I don't think there was a day that someone didn't try to kill me.
  9. I'm happy with 6e. I certainly played more 1-3e than any of the other editions, but I've run a few 6e games at cons and it plays 90% the same. I liked the tone of the writing thru 4th edition, but 5 & 6 were way more accurate.
  10. Here: The Fantasy Trip Kickstarter It's got a lot of stretch goals done and yes, very quick and easy system. It's what I played before Champions. (Hexes and points, but way simpler)
  11. Kudos for feeling comfortable on coming out. And I don't think I look anything like any of my avatars. Though I really need to update my FB one as well. It's coming up on a year since the last change.
  12. I have a small bag of dice with the rpg materials that I'm going thru. In storage is the .50 cal ammo box stuffed with dice. Majority are six siders from the last 40 years though I think there were some that sneaked in from old board games of the sixties... Also includes a few handfuls of the $1 for a handful from Hero games back in the 80s. (Just one year they did that at DDC, then went to using coffee cups to combat people with size 17 hands...) I never did the crown royal bag, but noted the other day that you can sometimes get custom stitched royal bags from them.
  13. Not too far from my wife's aunt's house, but probably won't be applicable while she's house sitting in a month. (She's more of a fish fan)
  14. I was in that first hour. I played the heck out of that game when it first came out. Still have my originals, but they're beat up.
  15. Where? (Place to acquire said fish, since we're in the same region of Wa)
  16. First reaction: Only 948? Second Reaction: If they're in great shape (not showing wear), maybe at a game convention if they have flea market style setups. I'd price them at 1/4 to 1/2 cost of new ones. Some game stores might be able to do consignment, but unsure. I treat my dice like a dragon even though I rarely game now...
  17. Well damn. Condolences as well.
  18. Hey Logan! I'm not on here very much, though Don is. And I'd say the readme is still accurate.
  19. Note, it's written for 4th Edition. Fairly compatible, but Hero Designer would be more flexible in that you can modify some stuff.
  20. While having an internet connection will make life easier to install, you could do a linux install via USB. And while I'm sure you can do it all yourself, I'm currently in the Seattle area.
  21. Haven't gone into too many tests and it looks like this is not impacting my use, but I do have this error come up on start WARNING: An illegal reflective access operation has occurred WARNING: Illegal reflective access by org.jruby.ext.posix.util.FieldAccess (file:/home/lemming/herodesign/HD6.jar) to field java.io.FileDescriptor.fd WARNING: Please consider reporting this to the maintainers of org.jruby.ext.posix.util.FieldAccess WARNING: Use --illegal-access=warn to enable warnings of further illegal reflective access operations WARNING: All illegal access operations will be denied in a future release Running on Linux and version of Java: openjdk 10.0.1 2018-04-17 OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 10.0.1+10-Ubuntu-3ubuntu1) OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 10.0.1+10-Ubuntu-3ubuntu1, mixed mode)
