That's really cool. Thanks!
This is a game about killing things and taking their stuff so you can become more powerful in order to kill bigger things and take even better stuff.
Alethan: I'm good with NOT pressing our luck this time.
mjulius: That's how I know I'm home.
Pulpatoon: The whole point of PbP is to take the scheduling pressure off the game. We're just chatty because we're so eager!
Scott308: ...everyone should be reminded of just how wonderful the people they play games with here can be in real life.
Leitz: Quality and quantity wise, I think US is the best I've seen.
Paladin: I can promise terror, glory, and riches...or a quick and brutal death.
Inferno: Come on! That's was Vicar's Head, a completely different doomed village!
Rex: I can move to the wait list to let someone else into the game.

We used to have a shop down on Main St, old St. Charles called the fantasy shop. IIt's much bigger now and in a different location but this reminded me of when I was 12 or so, riding my bike 12 miles just to see what was new. Or use recycling money to buy some new dragon magazine.
They had a massive display window with a custom built castle and dozens of miniatures at war.
Ah....memories. :D

You never know I found a cool old school RPG board game in a "goodwill/thrift store" for cheap with everything to it.
This is what i got from a "goodwill/thrift store" for cheap a few years back.

I bet. I think it is crazy what people put in yard sales or take to a goodwill/thrift store to clean out their kids old stuff. But as the saying goes "one mans trash is another mans treasure" ;)
