A bit late in this week, but I do plan to play something!

As always, much depends on the number of players.

Who's in?

As always I'd like to try.

Though I have to haul 14 tons of fine landscaping rock from a huge pile in front of our house to the backyard this weekend. I'm probably going to be more sore than I've been in a while tomorrow night.

I'm out.  As usual, my wanting to get things done early today has been changed to much later. 

Here at ACD, we all pee the same color.

Thanks to all who played.

I will confess to being gratified that a system I have such fond memories of still played well and could be so well-received.

I must also confess that I forgot a boatload of how this game thinks until it was well too late.

Definitely want to fight this one to a finish and, as you all saw, it won't take over-long.  Frankly, had we had four hours, I think we'd have made it.

Front page misspelling

Fun fact: the first know appearance of the word “orc” in the English language is in a William Blake poem, decades before Tolkien.  So here comes a goofy, fun, fantasy-focused fracas.

A troll versus great eagle fight would be...interesting...we'll have to see what Tony's up to.

I'm rather proud of my Wolf Riders giving the Dwarves a bloody nose.  :)

Those Orcs, better watch out if that is one of Don Hector(from Breaking Bad)'s Ice Trucks.
