Ludicrous Shot [Combat] Your ranged attacks hit from so far... Benefits: This is a combat feat that scales with your Base Attack Bonus. +0 : The range increments of your attacks are doubled +1 : Your foes reduce the bonus to AC they receive from cover by half +6 : You take no penalty from range inc...

Anyone looked at 6d6rpg as a apparently card based rpg?

I worked on several elections in Canada and its much the same as NZ. Yes it would boggle the mind how thinking of how the US manages to fuck it up until you remember THEY DO IT ON PURPOSE. Seriously they should do it like Vietnam. Mandatory voting, but one person in the family can vote for everyone....

Last one I played was more of an Appalachian hillbilly. He got plenty of laughs but certainly didn't win any points for cultural sensitivity. But its okay to make fun of them because their white.

When I had dreams of running a Conspiracy X (an inside the X-files conspiracy style game) campaign, I had planned on having each player make and investigator, a scientist and a grunt (the 3 core aspects of the game). That way they could cycle through them based on what each aspect of the mission req...

I would have thought it was how the girls were always taking their dong.

There was a condom advertising campaign here at one point that was "Invest your dong in OK condoms" I'm sure they had outside help for that double entendre.

Is there anyone else here who is reasonably confident they won't ever be a millionaire short of going to Zimbabwe for a stint? I make 50 million a month but unfortunately that is in Vietnam dong. At the exchange a rate that is a mere 2.5k US. but it is still about 10 times the average local salary ...

The "Anthropologist's Veto" is the idea that absolutely any declarative statement you might want to make about human behavior can have a valid counter example brought up by anthropologists who happen to be familiar with some group or another (usually that group is in Southeast Asia or Oce...

There's a book that has every book and it has a topless chick on the cover? Are you sure this wasn't a dream you had once? I am quite certain. I'd screenshot it to show you, but I don't know how this board is about nudity. GC is sort of correct. There is a illegal downloadable that contained all th...

Build a used book section. It was may favorite section to browse at my old shop. Pay 10/20% of cover for it and sell it for 30-50% depending on condition and popularity. I ended up collecting several games just because I bought a cheap copy of the main book used

Meville's works seem to all be like that. The Scar and The City and the City were much the same. He seems to be a conceptual writer more than a narrative one. But that is the same with many great scifi authors so I forgive him. As for Preacher, the special "good ole boys" was quality. Appa...

A friend of mine is talking about wanting to try Gnorman's E6 material from GITP I looked at his first kick at the can and some of it looked ok but some really underpowered classes. It's a work in progress but does anyone else have any thoughts on his general balance? Is it worth following or does h...

But I feel so good when my country wins! Wow I feel really good when my country loses. Canadians are some of the worst losers I've met, especially against america so I always root for the US to beat the Canucks just to see people feel disapointed about something so meaningless and petty. Of course ...

Apparently straight men want shemales or so says science (google talks0

Since when has Bill Gates being a bastard been news? We've known this since the 90s at least. Think Burn's Omni-net when you think of Gate's foundation

His book Maia was seriously not what I was expecting

Island of the Sequined Love Nun p.45
"You owe me about 10 bags by now. How you going to pay if you never leave that shithole of an island?"

Nah, Bethesda doesn't get any more of my money until their games don't require tons of mods to make good. Seriously, I have over 200 mods installed and active. Only a small portion of those are extraneous things like anime armor. Most of them are graphic, sound, and gameplay updates to make the gam...

I just read Lust Lizard of Melancholy Cove , by Christopher Moore. Moore is pretty good. Read Lamb It's one of the funniest books pieces of entertainment I've ever read experienced in my life. Coyote Blue and Dirty Job are pretty good too. Island of the Sequin love nun doesn't quite live up to the ...

obviously he needs this, but its not quite here despite this video to the contrary . In the Nam, these are our preferred weapons as they have a high personal satisfaction factor but overall don't really help. Bug zapper lamps generally don't work on mosquitoes unfortunately and are non discriminator...

Lago PARANOIA wrote: Argentina (re-, but that was a long assed re-) overtaking Brazil in GDP so convincingly.

Just to clarify. That chart did not indicate that Argentina's GDP has grown larger than Brazil's. It showed that it grew faster than Brazil's since 2000. Its comparative growth rather than absolute growth.

... I assume you just need someone to troll right now, but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt. "Disorient" does not mean "fits of epileptic rage". I looked at the screen, was surprised and a bit confused, and then chilled out. But that was only once, and if I saw it repeated...

I'm going to step in here and say that I do think I'd be rather disoriented if most of the actors in TV or the art in my RPGs were primarily non-white. I mean, when I saw Rue in The Hunger Games, I was like "wha? She's black?" and had to check the book to verify that the director did, in ...
