  1. If I have one complaint about 10 it's that things got moved around when they didn't need to be. However it is easy to get to the search field and I'm learning to just launch things from there.
  2. And the antagonists?
  3. Four posts in and this thread makes me want to sleep with the lights on already.
  4. Never heard of it. It seems that you would have to have the rules for stealth, concealment, and attacking from behind down pat, since such monsters prefer that mode of attack. Teleport only when not in line of sight should be easy enough to model.
  5. I'm waiting to see if Putin manages to get himself firmly stuck in a Middle Eastern quagmire. Bombing the moderate rebels is a good way to piss off Muslims in other countries, like Russia.
  6. I think the Service Pack 1 equivalent is due out some time this month. Might as well wait until then.
  7. My henchmen failed to tie up the virgin sacrifice tightly enough, and she escaped. We had to call off the whole thing. I was all set to break in my new ceremonial dagger, too.
  8. What are they going to announce on Monday?
  9. My games looked like Traveller and Star Frontiers because that's what we played. But visually that would boil down to a sort of Art Deco, pulp space opera--kind of like the Star Wars prequels, though I hate to admit it. If I were to spin up an entirely original campaign, it would look like that, but with more cybernetics.
  10. Their accuracy against unarmed victims is excellent. It's not uncommon for them to score six or more hits, even when the target is running in the opposite direction. And kids like Tamir Rice are small targets, too.
  11. A proper grip is critical to consistent accuracy when firing a handgun.
  12. Clearly you did not suffer through the same year of undergraduate physics that I did. Putting a black hole in another black hole would create a more massive black hole. However, a black hole in the closing stages of spiraling into another black hole creates a number of interesting effects, like intense bursts of radiation and gravity waves. It would be an extremely exciting place to be.
  13. Can't we just convert everything to avoirdupois for simplicity?
  14. Seventy yeeeeeeeeaaaarrrrssssss. Seventy! Seven. Ty.
  15. Sure you can. Humans will complain about anything. That event was so long ago. The people who were involved, I can see why they're angry. Everyone else seems like they're looking for an excuse to be outraged about something. Seventy years.
  16. As for renting, it is very popular here for landlords to rent to the military, because you have a recourse if things go sideways. If a Marine trashed his rental unit like that, his commander would f* him up. And the unit would get fixed.
  17. Deaths take time to get over. There will probably always be good days and bad days. I had a good friend go through the attachment disorder thing. That is incredibly rough and it's hard to feel like people relate because it's not something that the general population is familiar with. It takes a special kind of bravery to put yourself into a position where it could be an issue, and I'm pretty sure I'm not that brave. Someone has to do it, but we as a society don't support them as much as we ought to. Or the kids, for that matter.
  18. He's asking what Inception level we're all on. I'd say we're about 2-3 levels down. He's also asking whether a PC can target itself with a mental illusion, which, I don't see why not.
  19. Would you get the same degree of satisfaction that way, though?
  20. Selfies more dangerous than shark attacks
