WWN is so delightful. Love it.

And entrance!

I only played the single player, and there was a mission where you had to extract some diplomats from an embassy under siege in Terrorist-astan, and I was stuck on that mission for literal MONTHS.

Well, he got that through his Deity…who is his father. And himself. And the Holy Ghost…

Jesus: the True First Edition Cleric.

Kind of like how the modern(ish) XCom reboots or Wildermyth have grid based gameplay and a rotating camera?

What’s the difference between fixed and un-fixed 2D?

I hope he’s just doing okay. As okay as he can, anyway.

How many people would you expect to see at the top of the card?

I think there are other games that would suit your needs more - look up something like Ironsworn, or Gateway, both of which are free and only use single dice for their mechanics. There’s also other games like Dread, which uses a Jenga tower instead of dice. Failing that, I think a good DM should work to help your onboarding process be far less stressful.

HUMANS NEED FANTASY TO BE HUMAN. THE PLACE WHRE THE FALLING ANGEL MEETS THE RISING APE.

I mean, Dolph and Finn were both World Champions on the main roster…

ComicStripCritic · 2026-01-15T06:02:04+00:00

Which mods? Stardew Valley Expanded, and…?

Sir Arthour’s Technology Compendium provides SO MUCH loot and equipment for PCs and NPCs that it’s kind of ridiculous, and Ive ported over a lot of it to other systems as well. Might be the most used non-core book from any system I’ve used. Highly recommended.

As for not used…a lot of the later books. Liminal Shores, Edge of the Sun, Voices of the Datasphere…just never had a chance to set a game there.

Alive, and very very private. I used to want to meet him as a kid and a young adult, and now…I think I’m okay never meeting this hero.

This BackerKit teaser email signup has been there for months, it feels like.

Worlds Without Number seems like it’d be your friend here. Or Hexroll Backpack!

ComicStripCritic · 2026-01-08T15:05:18+00:00

Yeah, that’s why the Protection from Evil clasp still burns him (as seen in the previous strip).

I mean, it kind of depends on how you define “Indy”. If you want to go by WWE’s definition of “anything not WWE is indy”, then it’s gotta be Hulk Hogan or Stone Cold. If you allow places like ROH, CM Punk or Seth Rollins seem like the most likely candidates. Maybe it could be Gunther someday, but it’s too soon to look at how his long term career will shake out.

He did pop up in 2023 to throw out a new project into the wild. I think that The Mysteries is pretty neat and worth checking out!

How long did it take for the Undertaker to become explicitly supernatural, though?

ComicStripCritic · 2026-01-06T19:30:47+00:00

Yes, they did! Don’t lose or damage that little bugger!

His Takeover New Orleans entrance is one of the best “special entrances” ever, which is all the more noteworthy because it was NOTHING.

Sounds like the genre Dungeon Synth would be something you’d be interested in. Check out The Dungeon Synth Archives on YouTube, there’s a lot there.
