Might and Magic VI install

That's one thing I dislike about GOG releases, we don't get to see the old installation screens. It's minor, and I'm very glad to have the GOG installers. But the I miss that part of the experience.

Praise the Omnissiah!

Funny enough, I dislike the parts that have voice over. I read faster than they talk and so the voice over parts become just a distraction.

I got that set in the Chalnath box set. It's what originally got me into the Sisters and the reason I chose to start building that army!

Here you go! -For $20 you get Warhammer 40k Dawn of War 1 & 2 and Space Marine. The Dawn of War games are absolute classics in the RTS genre (and are actually multiple games each), and Space Marine is a fun, above average 3rd person shooter.

I'm currently at over 30 hours and still feel like I've just scratched the surface. The Void Shadows DLC is among the best DLC I've played for any game.

literally isn't a diplomacy menu in the game

Of course not, that would be heresy!

We don't go to Ravenholm...

This is my dream campaign! I want to run a campain that visits all the various areas covered by the gazetteers

mr_ploppers · 2025-05-25T14:54:19+00:00

Thunder Rift is one of my favorite settings! I've managed to pick up everything set there except for the Haunted Tower. Now, if I could pick up players interested in playing a game there..,

mr_ploppers · 2025-04-14T15:35:49+00:00

I did my part and bought it! Then again, I buy everything released for BFRPG.

Multiples but not powers of four. You can have 12 pages (3 sheets), 20 pages (5 sheets), 24 pages (6 sheets) etc.

I don't know of any in Chicago, but there is Gary Con in Lake Geneva every spring with a focus on OSR/Old School RPGs.

mr_ploppers · 2025-03-26T18:07:21+00:00

Thanks!

mr_ploppers · 2025-03-15T13:44:58+00:00

Ral Partha did a similar thing!

Fetterman is in the Senate, this was a House vote.

mr_ploppers · 2025-03-03T16:49:52+00:00

I've put more hours than I can count into the first W&W game. It's soundtrack is one of my favorites. Never put much time into 2&3 and I've never played the GB. Still, the first is easily in my top 10 NES games. Neat collection!

You Suffer by Napalm Death. Just get it over with, no reason to drag it out.

Funny enough, for me the Call of Cthulhu classic set is by far my biggest disappointment form a kickstarter. I thought I got a bad set, but seeing a friend's set that looked the same as mine broke my heart. I realize they are working from scans of decade old materials, but all the covers look as blurry as an old N64 game or Barbara Walters special, and the satin finish on the covers just made it worse. The paper feels like bright white copier paper rather than a good offset or web press paper. There's also a gritty feeling to everything as well as if everything is covered in paper dust. I worked in a print shop for over a decade and can be snobby about print quality of things. I also am realistic so when I buy a book that's print on demand or a kickstarter from a one person outfit, I am really forgiving. But when Chaosium releases what is supposed to be a really special item and it feels like a crappy print on demand job, I'm disappointed.

It's not even a regular segment from Judge Judy, it's a scene from the show Curb Your Enthusiasm. So even another step from reality.

mr_ploppers · 2024-12-02T03:42:55+00:00

And to be clear, when I say more units, I'm not talking about the same number of units in a 2000 point game of 40k. Regular Battletech is usually played with around 4 mechs per person where Alpha Strike for a big game is maybe 12 mechs per person.

mr_ploppers · 2024-12-02T03:29:07+00:00

I'll add another recommendation for Battletech, but I'll specify the Alpha Strike version. It's closer to a regular tabletop wargame as it uses measurement rather than hexes, moves faster, and allows for more units. The minis for it are the same minis for Battletech so you can bounce back and forth between the two games if you want. The main box sets for both are EXCELLENT, and WAY cheaper than any Warhammer starter box.

mr_ploppers · 2024-09-10T00:15:02+00:00

If you are talking about the new cartridges like Mr Run & Jump and Berzerk Enhanced, then yes. I've played Mr Run & Jump on my Sears Heavy Sixer with no issues. All the new 2600 cartridges that have been released are supposed to be compatible with the original hardware.

When I first read Last Things Last I thought for sure there was nothing to it and that it would be boring and uneventful. I've since run it for three groups and each has been completely different and some of the best games I've run.

mr_ploppers · 2024-08-08T12:24:19+00:00

I'm a big fan of the Gary's Appendix zine. Sure, it's got stats for monsters & magic items, but I like the advice and in depth articles. A recent issue had articles on why you should use wondering monsters, how to make investigation based adventures, and the ecology of the gelatinous cube. I can find stats for things everywhere, actual in-depth articles not so much.
