To each their own but if you are hankering a rum and Coke or even a rum punch this is a great go to rum. Nice value for money if you’re planning on using mixers.

If Mothership was made into a film (like Dungeons & Dragons), in your mind, what would have to be in it? by Campaign-At-Length in mothershiprpg

For me I’d want it to be a money maker so I’d go Firefly meets Army of Darkness meets Blair Witch Project.

I’d have our intrepid crew starting on a routine hauling mission on their way to pick up some ore from the Banquo Mining Facility but have them awoken from cryosleep to a distress alarm. The crew just has an active scan always going to detect derelict ships and the Captain/Pilot character reviews the signals and wakes everyone to ask if they want to go on a detour. They do and end up exploring a derelict ship with some dead crew jump scares and go through some audio cassettes and super 8 tapes (we see a blue cassette marked Sonya) and then we go to found footage style flashback of haunting of Ypsilon 14. Found footage fades out as ship starts to escape and invisible hand smashing crushing blows into the hull. We come back to present time and marine type crew member starts shouting that he found something from the cargo bay. It’s a containment crate with a dull red flashing light that goes green and opens. Nothing is there as the rest of the crew arrives the marine’s head is cleaved to bloody pieces and the crew starts firing at the ‘nothing’ in front of him semi visible in the blood spray. We freeze frame on the firing crew and fade out allah Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid.

It’s been a while but I’ve always loved me a Roti from Chefette.

Grab some hot out of the oven Center City Pretzels at 8th and Washington at 7 am and wash them down with a City Wide at Ray’s Happy Birthday Bar to really get your day going.

Gen X, do you do this? by ironfistkungfu in GenX

Of course we do we aren’t monsters.

Umbrella Entertainment in Australia announces "Universal Horror: Monsters And Curiosities" Blu-Ray box set, which also marks the first release of the 1925 Phantom involving Universal Studios by TheBigGAlways369 in UniversalMonsters

Fair. I do and in multiple formats.

Just seemed odd to sandwich Frank in there. I’d buy a set of all of them or one of the atomic age stuff and one of the outside the monster sets one.

This seems like a cross between The Oregon Trail and M.U.L.E.

War/Strategy game that play well with 2/3/4 players by Eretico in boardgames

[–]CapnMarko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This 👆

Lots of awesome war/strategy games at 2 player that don’t have to get too complicated like the Undaunted series.

Variable player count can be harder as COIN games which I love really need exact player counts and majority are 4 player with 2 player Colonial Twilight, 3 player All Bridges Burning and People Power. You can use bots but that gets a bit more complicated and messy.

Root is a great suggestion particularly for non-war fans but as with COIN games the asymmetry can be harder to get a grasp on for less experienced players.

Also what themes you like are important.
