Hello!

#1 Post by ottarrus »

Hey everyone. Carl here.

I'll be joining in Keven's Traveller game and look forward to meeting everyone.
It's nice to see a board that pays attention to some of the older milieu and the older games. I also really appreciate the respect that the old Dungeon Magazine is getting. Nice stuff.
I look forward to exploring the board. This could be fun.

Welcome. Older games definitely get love and respect here.
Sometimes this summer I will most likely be participating in another 24 hour game of Dungeons & Dragons as part of Extra Life. This organization uses gaming to help raise money to donate to children's hospitals. I'm raising money for Marshfield Children's Hospital in Marshfield, WI, and all money I raise will go to that hospital. All donations are tax-deductible. Please take a moment to check out my donation page below. Thank you.

The Blue Box, silly! You have to know what your characters can do after they gain a few levels. :)

Heh... if your characters gain too many levels, you're not doing it right. ;)
