Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... In WH40K, you join the Inquisition and, eventually, end up with both.

Re: Creepy Pics. So THAT is what a Critical Failure on one's 'Fashion' skill would look like.

Re: Creepy Pics. I would say that a great deal depends on precisely HOW one discovers that there is a snake in the toilet.

Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... Our WH40K Rogue Trader game cannot compare with Drhoz's bunch, but it has its moments. This week, our ship exits warp - and is immediately set upon by a much smaller pirate vessel. Pirate was obviously expecting a fat slow tradeship. What he gets is a not nearly so slow Cruiser - run by Player Characters . To say there is a disparity in firepower is a gross understatement. Our Trader (relaxing in his chair, speaking to his crew and indicating the lone Pirate): "Make it glow."

Re: Creepy Pics. That would explain a lot.

Re: Jokes Little Johnny is not doing well at Maths. His mother tries to help him along - positive reinforcement, extra tutoring, etc., etc., etc.. None of it works. Finally, in desperation, she enrolls him at the local Catholic school, reasoning that the extra discipline might help. End of the first day at the new school. Johnny walks in the front door, kisses his mother hello, goes straight upstairs and IMMEDIATELY begins studying. He comes down for dinner then, afterwards, goes back upstairs for more studying. He keeps this up all week, all month and then all term, suddenly becoming the model student. Not too surprisingly, when his term report card comes home, Johnny does well in all subjects, but especially in Maths. His mother is delighted, but is also very curious. Johnny is not too forth-coming about what has changed his ways, but his mother persists. She finally says. "You should tell me, Johnny, Was it the extra discipline? Was it the uniform? The nuns? Surely there was something!" Johnny sort of shuffles his feet, and finally says "It was on the first day, when I walked in the main door. I saw the guy they had nailed to the giant plus sign, and I knew then that they weren't messing around....".

Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... Great minds think alike. That is exactly my take on what all that extra low-end crew does on WH40K ships. I'd also guess that entire family lines have been operating certain doorways for generations.

Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... Hey, could have been much MUCH worse. I recall one long-ago session where one so-called hero locked a sleeping teammate in a cage (fortunately empty) at the Zoo. Repped, anyhow.

Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... From WH40K 'Rogue Trader': "You know, I really think it would be best if you stop referring to our priest as 'the guy in the Missionary position'...."

Re: Creepy Pics. Anakin, what has the Dark Side DONE to you????

Re: "Neat" Pictures Also great for discouraging salesmen, door-to-door religious types, etc..

Re: "Neat" Pictures If I ever decided to be a super-villain / Evil Overlord, I would SO have a squadron of these.

Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... Greenpeace should be having a frickin' cow about that.

Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... The best possible way to do so. Repped.

Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... From our WH40K game: "So, should I kill him now, or wait for him to mutate first?"

Re: Creepy Pics. "Da-amn, boy. What did you eat?"

Re: "Neat" Pictures Very cool. I would rep you if I could.

Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... .... Unless you are a citizen of New Zealand. (Aussie humour)

Re: "Neat" Pictures The ship has shrunk an awful lot from what we see in the show.

Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... ... And your family must be so very proud.
