    Actually FI first season (NOT with Ricardo Montilban) and in wich the owner wore black.... was actually pretty good, there was inparty bet's, more supernatural events and other bits of the more fantastic

  2. Doggonit, looks like my Golinds equipment and Dysons mask did not make it.....

    Ill have to rewrite them later....

     

    Oh yeah as for the AD&D anti smack talk PHHHHHHBTTTTT!!!

     

    i have been in the best game ever that was hero based upon an old AD&D conversion....

  3. Im not sure I agree with some of the assumptions here.......

     

    I used to Sca and I used the Loaner gear.

     

    When i charged an opponent and my kneecups locked together (gotta love sideffects.... Grrrr)

    I fell.

     

    I fall pretty frequently and going all out then falling is pretty common with me

     

    Will add more later......

  4. Actually I think Defaults and the whole defaulting tree is kinda silly. IMNSHO if ya really need defaults just "default "to either a similar skill at a penalty or go with a Char based roll at a bigger penalty, theres only about 10 of those to choose from. :)

     

    if ya need a chart swipe it from GURPS :P

     

    otherwise BYO or handle it off the cuff.

     

    not allways the best but pretty good.

  5. Actually Zarglif, if you wrote you commentary along the lines of

    IMNSHO D&D SUXXXXXX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

     

    Id have to agree with you.

     

    D&D _can_ suc.

     

    and suck BIIIIIIG.

     

    but some of the most menmorable games and characters I have ever had have been in some XD&D games. Including Basic, Expert, Advanced, and 2nd.

     

     

    There is one exception, a single HERO campaign with a few characters I played in.

     

    The system is largely irrelevant the real point is how everyone treats everyone in the game. That is what makes a game a good game.

     

    Actually I have been hankering for a real solid game of Advanced, maybe even bringing them up from Basic and then converting......

     

    ahhh the 80's where big hair wasn't a Faux Pax

    Isn't that 11ft tall amazon Giantess the one that took out Old Man and Le Schtroumpf in one blow?

     

    I had to smuck her around a lot to put her down to size.....

  7. hmmm most of the Burritos I get while very tasty

     

     

    erm...

     

    lack lags or the speed of a racing slug.

     

     

    And even with a foil wrapping I doubt they would handle my backpack (30#+/-) over any terrain that was not frictionless.

  8. Actually I think there is a 4th Jedi Power,

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Wait for it

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Necromancy.

     

    after all, where else do you get the 2000 member "Skeleton crew" for the Death Star????!?!?!?!?

  9. Heh to give you an idea of how bad i was about AD&D 1st edition this really happened:

     

    Gm Opens MM book where I can't see it.

    He points at a critter (keep in Mind I dont even have the page #)

    that I still cannot see.

    He tells me "-8 AC, what is it's hit dice?"

    I tell him "16"

    He says" your wrong, its 200 hitpoints"

    I respond with "The DMg Maxes out it's Thaco Chart at 16+ HD, all Greater Deamons with listed hit points fight at 16+ HD level according to the DMG... and since you told me it has 200 hitpoints it's Demogorgon on page 16 or 17...."

     

    that forever made me in that group for any rules questions.
