If breach didn't have those fucking hives filling huge swaths of areas with obstructive ugly shit it would have been better received. If you're trying to speed through the campaign quickly it's all burden no benefit. When you get to mapping it can get in the way of or otherwise play no part in a...

I never did so I'm not completely burned out on the format.

It's a pretty dumb show but it is fun enough to stick with.

This is the last book in The Laundry series. Initially described as Dilbert meets Cthulhu when the series began it's really far more serious than that with an increasingly dark tone from book to book. The author got 9 or so books in and then stopped telling stories about the fictional Laundry...

Bigger runtime than I was expecting and he's in character? This is more effort than I am accustomed to which a television show tie in novel.

SFDebris started out doing written (yes, really) reviews of Voyager and his production quality has never kept up with advancements but today he uploaded the first part of a review of Andrew Robinson's book about Garak. During the show he had written a diary for Garak to help him understand the...

You move the timeline up so that all the slaves are free and the desertification through magic is mostly fixed (heroic cabal of women practitioners) but there's a holdout of baddies for our diverse team of diversity to go stop. They want to make everything a slave desert again because they're...

Banging mirror universe Jadzia is one of those little things you would FOR SURE excise from a script nowadays. It has a logic to it but it's got larger implications for Sisko if you think about it at all.

Vacuum desiccated offspring of the emissary for sale. edit - I'm not making fun of Star Trek or DS9 or it's characters. I'm making fun of nu-Trek writing. Cassidy aborting a parasitic clump of cells to preserve her career fits like a glove.

Sounds terrible and also pointless? Not that anyone really gives a shit about Trill symbiotes but we do see that when they get old they stop being implanted and instead chill in little hot tubs. We do see in Children of Time that the Dax symbiote is still trucking after an extra 200 years but...

That was indeed the issue, yes. I think that Brooks got the dialogue changed to sound like Sisko would return which makes me really curious what the original version was like.

Having to go through school again with a child's perception of time sounds like torture. EVERYTHING TAKES FOREVER. Just an hour in the car is an eternity. I get wanting to be able to walk without a limp and have all your teeth back though.

I've never picked up the DS9 relaunch novels but I think he comes back in one of them!

The collecting side is whatever but I'd kinda like to see what a long-term campaign looks like. I had the boxed set and read through it and it looked like super death. I know the base races and classes are a little juiced and psionics have a long and proud history of being nuts but the adventure...

You have to figure too that when TSR went under a lot of product just didn't make it on to anyone's shelf or even a box in the basement. It went in to the dumpster. Slaying the Dragon, which I think you've read, has a story about a storage warehouse that the company stopped paying stuffed to the...

That's a hoot. All that stuff was on super clearance back in the day. No one gave a shit. Game stores and book stores alike choked on it.

I did my two stones on Herald of Purity is My Six Link Herald. It was something I wanted to try since Dark Monarch was introduced. Twelve Sentinels of Purity has to be sweet as hell. It was pretty smooth. I got just enough money together for the hat and a Coming Calamity with the Foulborn...

I always assumed cultivation was way more asian than is was rpg.

When the agent of the writer for the first book was negotiating the rights to the film adaptation he included that David Morrell would have dibs on all book adaptions of sequel films. Rambo dies in the novel (spoilers) but the agent asked for it anyway. Morrell stopped after Rambo 3 but I like...

At least he didn't an hero again setting up Ghost Story 2

Alright but this harem anime better not kill off any more true loves just so the hero can get a little pathos.

It's an extreme delayed gratification mechanic on a three week psuedo event league. Couple odd choices with this one. I'm having a decent time but it's entirely because I had been wanting to try the Herald and really didn't play the last Phrecia at all. if I wasn't all about the character I...

Now to see how many people got this going

I didn't know there was a problem until I checked reddit today.

I'm going to keep harping on it. It just doesn't work because of Susan. It was established that she was his true love. Their love shielded him from the White Court of Vampire on more than one occasion. She was the mother of his child and he opened her throat albeit at her request. That's some...

Except it concludes with her wrong, the dude dead and no one really simping for her. Again, weird.

There's an episode of Voyager where Seven accuses a man of violating her. She has some repressed memories surface of him performing experiments on her and her borg implants, extracting nanoprobes, etc. Dude denies it, flees, dies aaaaaaaand yeah. It looks like it was just some Borg PTSD and the...

Although I of course agree and have stated that Star Trek was progressive from the start it's also important to note what that actually meant. We've got a Japanese guy at the helm. There's a Russian in charge of weapon. Roddenberry made sure to place Uhura's station such that turbo racist TV...

The book I thought we were going to get was going to be mostly about the wedding with Lara. Heroes and villains a plenty as all heck breaks loose during the ceremony with treachery and double crosses and double double crosses. Something fun and a little comic book-ish as our hero has to navigate...

It's exactly how it went last time which is just kinda how it always goes with everything. Scare people out at the bottom and shove them in at the top.

Archiving this Too interesting

Buy an ounce of silver and crash JP Morgan! That was the story back in 2011 when silver was on a rocket ride to 50 bucks an ounce. I think it went as low as 17 in the aftermath? I'm not surprised to see something similar happen again just with bigger numbers.

That one blows. It's different when someone you were fond of dies at 90+ but 71 just isn't that old.

I'm having fun but goddamn are hive fortresses annoying in the campaign. The faster you're trying to get through ten acts the more in your way they are.
