    Tolkien’s Writing Desk on Auction at Christie's

    Ah got it. I think I have a prototype Holmes set (I have asked about it before, only to have people correct me about what is in Holmes)...having gone back and read my set it absolutely says that elves get to choose which class they are from adventure to adventure vs. Holmes release (I also got...

    Tolkien’s Writing Desk on Auction at Christie's

    So he has a 300K - 400K RPG box just sitting on his desk??? That's worth far more than just about any RPG item I have (and I think I have the Original ODD versions). That's a pretty impressive price for an RPG. Why is it worth that much (besides the obvious that they think someone will pay...

    Time travel doesn't exist because time travel wiped out the timelines where it did

    That is like saying Height is not actually a thing. What we see as height is actually a measurement of something in comparison to something else. The way one does it changes. It may be in Feet. It may be in Meters. It may be in Krogospac, but whatever it is measured in, the idea still...

    Do you observe Thanksgiving?

    In the same note that I talked about how easy it was to observe Thanksgiving...I observe some of those as well! Especially via Youtube or other facets of our modern day life! Occasionally via the news (when it reports on events dealing with them).

    Your top 5 sci-fi movies (and why)

    Add me to one of those that prefer this in the film. I think it raises the film above many others. It also makes it feel more like the story it's based off of...of which Ridley lost the point of in his redo/director's cut...etc.

    Do you observe Thanksgiving?

    I should note... It's easy to observe, just watch someone talking about it on Youtube...etc. There's a difference between observe and celebrate.

    D&D General Geralt what class

    Alchemist... Oh...that's not a D&D class. Could be though. More of a Multiclass then... Fighter/Wizard Or Fighter/Artificer

    D&D 3.x [3.PF] "Restricted Gestalt" Variants

    My houserules on Gestalts... You pick two classes and that's it. They are fixed after that. You can't mix and match. You may choose a Prestige class if you wish, but then you only advance in the Prestige Class and not the other Gestalt Classes. You XP doubles from the normal level. So if...

    What rpg system would you use for a 60+ session fantasy campaign?

    AD&D or BECMI. First choice. Easiest choice.

    Who Should Gal Gadot Play In The New DCU?

    The movies were fine, But I hated Momoa as Aquaman. He seems more like a Lobo, so I'm fine with that. I wanted someone who would be more like the traditional Aquaman rather than Bro-Aquaman. Bro-Aquaman was a terrible choice. AS for Gadot... Make her Martha Wayne. Or, if we want a bigger...

    New "Stargate" series announced

    Well, if it's like Stargate SG-1 or Stargate Atlantis, this will be fun. If it's like SG: Universe...screw that. That's going to suck hard.

    You're Top-10 Movies/Shows based on Games

    Rocky Balboa also has Rocky getting back into shape et al, but not actually winning the final bout. Each movie has it's theme. I - The underdog gets a shot at glory II - The fame that comes from that one shot and how it affects the boxer, as well as a second chance III - Fame and Glory and how...

    Toys For Tots

    Not an RPG, but Star Realms is an awesome card game. I think you can still get the Essentials Kit, that's always a winner.

    You're Top-10 Movies/Shows based on Games

    I forgot about Detective Pikachu. That actually was a pretty good movie. I wasn't all that interested in it and very skeptical, watched it because a grandchild wanted to watch it, and was pleasantly surprised. I have no idea on how it is related to or even consistent with the source material...

    Anticipatory Grief

    Something with an old cat I had was that we kept him around for far too long. His last few months/weeks were just a painful life for him. Sometimes it is better to let them have a peaceful death by putting them to sleep then to let them suffer for your sake. They die happier than they do...
