Re: What Are We Waiting For? You must have a different Rome in mind than I do. I=1 V=5 X=10 L=50 C=100 D=500 M=1000 K is not used.

Re: What Are We Waiting For? I don't recall K as a roman numeral. XCD would be 390. How do you get 42?

Re: Mixing Up Comic Book Ages I don't know where you get this. Every reprint of the Spider pulps that I have read has him as a killer vigilante. Unless we are thinking of different characters with the same name? The Spider, Master of Men. Last year Baen brought out a reprint of some Spider stories in the book: "The Spider and the City of Doom." Is your spider different?

Re: Mixing Up Comic Book Ages Golden age traditionally refers to early superhero comic; the spider was a pulp character who precedes superheroes. Many pulp characters were killer vigilantes.

Re: Honorverse Since this appears to have gotten out of hand, I will no longer be posting on this topic.

Re: A days journey Pre 20th century, when infantry really marched to battle, normal speed on a decent road was 2.5 mph (marching 50 minutes and a 10 minute break) and 8 hours the standard time of march per day, so 20 miles per day was normal. Bad terrain would slow you down of course. With a "forced march" 30 miles a day was plausible, but that exhausts the troops.

Re: The Rockford Files Keep your card, you are pardoned.

Re: Three Musketeers in Outer Space Your analysis assumes that the gunman does not have his weapon out. (Within that context, it is valid.)

Re: Honorverse Most FTL is through hyperspace, not wormholes. Wormholes are very useful, but rare.

Does anyone know of any spreadsheet type character sheets for 6th edition that are available?

Re: The Rockford Files Since he was pardoned before the pilot, what basis do you have for your second sentence?

Re: The Rockford Files In the US, if you receive a full pardon you are not an ex-con within the meaning of the law, it is no bar to a pistol permit in any state.

Re: World of Balance: A campaign for an eight and nine year old GR8! But a question: Did the kids come up with the names (Wingy, Steak on the Hoof, etc.) or did you?

Re: Infographic: 120 fake sci-fi events on a real-world timeline I have to disagree with your placing "The Thing" in 1982. The original "Who goes there" (which was set in Antarctica) was in 1938; the first movie "The Thing from Another World" was set in the Arctic, but it was in 1951.

Re: Taranis-The British plane that deserves to be in a comic book OK, I've seen the study. I stand by my statement that "there is an order of magnitude difference." Yes, in the study the PLAAF defeated the US force. So what? The question is not whether the USAF can be defeated; the question of which is easier, attacking bases and tankers, or jamming a control link.

Re: Taranis-The British plane that deserves to be in a comic book OK, do you have a link to the study?
