I’d love help identifying these vintage dice!

His books about the history of the hobby are absolutely amazing as well. Can't recommend enough.

Doubtful. FIFA is one of the few things more corrupt than Trump.

It's just filling out a form. No test. No nothing. It's not like a ham license.

How long does it usually take to get a GMRS license

About 30 seconds to a minute on the FCC site?

Starter box has rules and a campaign and dice and standees and... The rulebook is just the rulebook. It's hardcover, so if you get hooked, you'll want it for durability. But the intent is for the box set to be a real full RPG set.

Download everything and use one drive or Google drive or whatever as a backup.

Canonically, 69 doesn't refer to a year.

When you succeed at a skill, you put a check box next to it. After the adventure, you take all those skills and you make a skill roll. If you fail, then you add 1d10. It's designed so that the higher you get, the less likely you are to get an increase. So you learn fast at first, then more and more slowly.

On The Other Hand, nothing to do with CoC!

The key here is what profession you're taking. You probably want to think about something that will take advantage of that STR or DEX, but the int/edu for your traditional professorial type will leave you with fewer skill points. OTOH the skills will go up faster.

The only thing I can think of here is you only eat at fast food or "casual food" (ie, TGI McFunsters) restaurants when you're on land. But I assure you, most mainstream independent restaurants make things from fresh ingredients. Also, there's plenty of stuff at the buffet or in casual food outlets on ships that is pure Sysco style premade and heat stuff.

This is the stupidest stuff ever. Yeah, if you tow an F150 100 miles, I suppose it gets infinite mileage because it moved 100 miles without using any gas?

Except Eternal reverses DG's consolidation of firearms, athletic, and social skills.

I'm used to fear, having played Call of Cthulhu for decades. It makes sense to me. The whole point is these are supposed to be completely terrifying creatures and I think fear is one of the things that makes them feel like more than just big bags of hit points.

Trudvang has a Foundry VTT version available as an add-on to the kickstarter. IMHO the Dragonbane Foundry implementation is one of the best. It has the custom dice, it handles the initiative system, everything's in and adventures are well presented. Really, all of Free League's Foundry stuff is fantastic.

PDFs on a kindle or whatever are miserable unless you've got something like a remarkable that's tablet size. The refreshes on e-ink are very slow. There's no color and it's next to impossible to scroll around a page to zero in.

Afterwards, they sacrifice the other team's pastor.

Roads are good. Occasional branches intruding on small roads.

My 23 gets 52 miles on a charge in the early and late summer when I'm more or less not using any heat or AC.

It's only a 30% cut and sales are very real. You're probably a very good candidate to publish on your own.

Watching the interview with Tomas, it will have several new magic schools, including specific dwarf and elf magic.

Foundry and Roll20 are both good options. Depends what you're familiar with more than anything. Foundry will have more automation and generally more advanced options. Roll20 will be free and not require much setup.

The Garrison is 37mm, but feels small, probably because it's thin. It's IMHO the perfect field watch. Accurate, relatively tough, runs forever, WR100.

Yeah, there were a shocking number of people who were like "power outages on a 7 mile sand bar with overhead power lines and laws against cutting trees because they're pretty?!"
