  1. Thanks, I'll have to check that out
  2. In Dark Champions 5e, there's an intro by Steve Long that explains as a Builder-type of player, he was dissatisfied with the "four-colour "fight them lock them up, they escape, we fight them again" cycle. He created the Harbinger to have a positive effect on the game world (and drive GMs crazy) and then wrote the original Dark Champions as a source book for "dark heroes" like the Harbinger, feeling they had got short shrift in the main Champions book. Well, Steve, I'll see your Harbinger and raise you the Shadow, even without the powers of hypnotism that the radio shows gave him.
  3. Because Jesse Ventura wielding a minigun from the hip *will* be a reality, dammit!
  4. *solemnly intones* "We put our faith in... BLAST hARDCHEESE!"
  5. I that's the Achilles I'm thinking of, from Global Guardians. he's a genetically engineered super-soldier, in rebellion against his gene-father, the campaign's apex supervillain, Lord Doom. I miss the Global Guardians site.
  6. The littlest and more adorable Bat Girl. And the trusty Bat Scooter. Totes props.
  7. Clay Davis as Captain Marvel? Sheeeeeeit!
  8. These are all super high quality. Props to all these people.
  9. Mystique and Loki score 10/10 for effort
  10. *Whaps Bolo with the +5 Rolled Up damp edition of the Radio Times of Smiting* Bad dog! xD
  11. This is hilarious, especially Grognak's answers. Also, I notice his Hellsteed-descended warhorse is called Binky.
  12. Another great setting is Charles R Saunders' "Imaro" books. If Hyboria is "Europe", then Nyumbani (Swahili for "home") is "Africa" and, frankly, a damn better rendition than Howard's "Black Kingdoms", given that Saunders actually researched the history and mythology far more thoroughly than Howard did, even actually traveling to Africa to broaden his learning. Imaro (Swahili for "Strength". and there are many such bilingual Easter eggs in the books) was created as a reaction to to racially dubious depictions of black people in Burroughs, Lovecraft and Howard by a man who confesses he is a huge fan of the latter two. Get your hands on the books if you can, they're fun reads.
  13. Sad Iron Man, but happy little girl
  14. That's a good Question cosplay, especially the "blank face" mask.
  15. So what counts as which in terms of shotgun shells?
  16. Hell yes! Delivering Christmas presents and slaughtering Xenos! For the Emp'rah!
  17. Anyway, from the ridiculous to, well, not sublime, maybe, but certainly more practical:
  18. Geez, they weren't satisfied with a Dillon, were they?
  19. And the sad fact is that Maker is probably right....
