The Gaming Den

I guess this is the place to bring it up.[br][br]I don't have anything against Hillary. I think she'll make a fine leader, but the amount of vast unearned hatred she draws, even from people who normally support her, might be a problem in the general election.[br][br]As in, people go to the voting bo...

You could always have that stuff basically work, but it makes the black hole extra active, so normal people aren't willing to risk it when they can just eke out a basic living by farming or whatever.

I'm not quite sure what you mean.

Also, state in a blurb that the genre won't allow metahumans to feed the world, either through banning of abilities or combos that do, or just having it be an agreement with the players to not actually do so even if it's within their power. I know some DMs would like the idea of negative hero point...

I know that sounded really awkward and forced. But if someone can think of a better way to make it so that someone can't wave their hands and heal and feed a bunch of settlers I'd love to hear it.

Of course, there will also be MUTANTS. And not just pretty X-Men mutants, either, but Total Recall-style mutates. Sometimes the categories will mix and match.[br][br]And to prevent tomfoolery like replicators, we might add this in:[br][br] Entropy Field [br][br]When the survivors of this broken worl...

Well, how's this for a setting...[br][br]In a parallel universe, some asshole scientist exploded two stars surrounding an Information-age planet that had a superhero mythology similar to DC/Marvel and caused it to be at the center of a black hole. The resulting chaos almost killed everyone on it, bu...

You know, this reminds me a lot of Fist of the North Star. [br][br]This is sort of what I'm going for, though not as depressingly and relentlessly bleak as that series and not focused on one hero. But there are totally gigantic men the size of skyscrapers fighting human-sized opponents with wind-ge...

I'm trying to think of a mad-max world with superheroes and I really can't see it working. The Superheroes would either take over govt at that point (from a grey-morality standpoint) or they would use their powers to make the lives of the norms a lot, lot better. But since you're keepign the PL low...

I'm trying to put together a detailed campaign setting that depicts modern civilization being destroyed by something and people scraping together a living to survive.[br][br]The twist is that there are superheroes in this world, either mutants or leftover ones.[br][br]I don't want to restrict the se...

While I'm at it, the entire experience at prototype was a negative experience as far as my career moves go.[br][br]I learned a lot of incorrect and obsolete things that I had to spend a lot of time correcting when I got to the ship for real. I would've had a head start on the whole thing had I never...

Since I operate a Naval Nuclear Propulsion Plant, I go through significantly more training than other enlisted shlubs.[br][br]The process for me was pretty much: generical electrical engineering skills --> genericalical nuclear engineering skills --> operate an old-ass protoype plant --> operate a n...

I think I understand what Crissa is talking about. We can have the power to change the constitution for important things that are new or we have decided are important. We can also change the constitution for stupid things like prohibition. With prohibition we also have proven that we also have the ...

That's one of the lovely things about the United States. We decided to make the constitution something we can change.

I have no idea what this sentence is supposed to mean in relation to my post.

My hatred for this show grows with every episode. I am forced to listen to this bullshit in the office due to the votes of my coworkers.

I have never wanted to smack any fictional characters in the mouth so freaking hard in any show I've watched. This includes Neon Genesis Evangelion.

Not to beat a dead horse or anything, but Huckabee wants to amend the constitution to reflect 'God's Word'.

For serious. There's a video and everything.

Tancredo, [br][br]I really, really want him to get cock rot.[br][br]Hasn't he dropped out of the race yet? Motherfucker.[br][br][br]I'd also like to use this opportunity to point out that McCain has had his hand caught in the cookie jar, only the cookie jar is the savings and loan scandal and a man...

By the way, you can visit her website at: http://www.astarte-education.com/astart ... ]Religious insanity in the monarchy For the FAIL.

1200336994[/unixtime]] 1200336167[/unixtime]]I mean, right now , the princess of Norway believes that she can talk to angel and is opening up a special angel school so other people can do the same thing. Meanwhile, the socialist secular government ignores this tomfoolery and runs things relatively ...

I have yet to see anyone come up with a solid argument against Fair Tax that did not consist of either "change is bad" or "you are taking away jobs". [br][br]That's because you haven't been paying attention to the people trying to advocate a flat tax for, oh, decades.[br][br]The...

There are few examples of strong atheistic governments in the first place, which is required if one is to show a balance from your idea of the total elimination of religion cooties. Hell even an agnostic government is suspect because how can you be sure that they do not believe in the sky fairy? Th...

I think our only hope at this point is that Huckabee splits the GOP and Bush II will go down in history as the anti-Reagan.[br][br]I mean, we'll still have the massive corruption and pork spending and corporate welfare that is KILLING THE UNITED STATES, but at least there will be less religious insa...

Sorry. That should be 'adjacent Arab territories'.

Massive MSM-induced Freudian slip. Sorry!

I know in earlier threads I was making light of the fact that he was splitting the GOP establishment, but seriously, someone needs to pull the plug on this shit right now.[br][br]This guy is scary as hell. Has no idea of the separation of church and state and actively mocks it in his campaign. Also ...

I'll try to dig through my laptop one of these days to pull up PInpoint and post it in this thread if anyone's interested.

Do it. Do it now.

The guy hasn't written anything new in years, literally. Like, the FATAL review was one of the last things he wrote.

So I guess we can all chill.
