You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Once again I have delegated my die-rolling to a small boy of my acquaintance.

Fire 1: 6. Miss.
Fire 2: 1. Miss.

It's time to face up to it - my boy is a Cylon. Now, thanks to Apollo's special ability, he activates the Quorum Chamber. First card sent. President Apollo, you may now either draw another Quorum card, or play one from your hand. When you're ready, please post your orders.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

It's time to face up to it - my boy is a Cylon.

Does that mean there aremore of him somewhere?

We're doomed.

Actually, I'm pretty sure that Ryan is not really a Cylon, because Cylons have a plan. My boy has no plan. No matter how often he tells me "...I meant to do that."

Pete linked this on the book of Face:

D&D now on Steam, complete with dice and a Dungeon Master

[link]

I wonder if that is something folks on here would like to do?

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

I've been playing online with my D&D group in Roll20 for a year and a half now. Not quite as feature-rich as Fantasy Grounds, but it's system-agnostic, browser-based and free. (Though I've paid for a subscription for a little over a year now for some additional features and to support them.)

It's cool the WotC is official partnering with someone for their online tool after the debacle when they attempted it on their own for 4E. But at this point my players and I are comfortable enough with Roll20 that I don't see the need to switch.

Oh neat! Hmm, could Roll20 be used for our BSG games?

I would certainly be interested in playing D&D online, but there could be some difficulties with time zones.

Meanwhile! The word from Apollo is: play Civilian Self-Defence. The CSS Hadrosaur flies straight into the heavy raider! It's a gutsy move, but will the civvie survive? Hadrosaurs are lovers, not fighters! The die roll to save civvie H may be modified by an SP. Everyone, please pass or play.

on the D&D online topic. Those of us in the Anderson-Grey household would like to know if either this new thing or Roll 20 allow for two players to use one computer.
