I've had a GM do something similar with White Wolf games, but never D&D.

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.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
I agree, great GMing billytea!!
I have the game, but have never gm'ed anything before, and painfully shy/insecure is keeping me from volunteering.

Sean, I thought you didn't have two spare minutes to rub together for the next few weeks?

If he ships it ground, it will be a couple of weeks before it gets here.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
What sucks about the wrap up is it points how pivitol my idiot " xo means you do what I say" blunder was. The irony being the mistake made from tired long hours, and with the grand opening last night... Oh well. It was fun.
It hurt, certainly, but I wouldn't put too much at your door. At that point Population was already down to 4 and Fuel to 2 - this game was always going to be a difficult, desperate struggle for the humans. You lost 6 Population after getting hit with three attack cards in a row, and 5 Fuel travelling 5 distance. That was just bad luck, made worse by Apollo (Population) and the Chief (Fuel).

Anything for a weird life.
The BSG game and the Delurking thread expiring on the same day means that I have to go find other threads to procrastinate by reading. Any suggestions?

Bitches? Usually pretty happening.
Or, you could GM a game in here.

Anyone picking up Dragon Age? It looks pretty cool, but I don't know where I'd find the time to dedicate to CRPG. "Spiritual successor to Baldur's Gate" catches my interest, though.
ETA: I will say the limited character race and class options are kind of disappointing, but I understand the first couple hours of the game deal with your character's backstory based on those options, so I can see them putting a limit on just how much of that they want to program.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
D wants to run a Star Wars campaign. It sounds like you can be just about any race but you do get the extra feat for going human.
