"LIVING HISTORY": About to be out-paced by Dungeons & Dragons on Amazon!

Check it out. Ann Coulter has left Hillary in the dust.

Hillary's sucking hind tit and Number TEN, now. And right on her tail: the new Dungeons & Dragons Players Handbook at Number 13.

It's a good week for fantasy.

[Warhead W-88]

I'm sorry if this is too much of a silly vanity, but I thought it might make some people chuckle.

And who knows? Maybe encourage a few wallets to open, if only to out-sell the book ghostwritten on behalf of Hillary Rodham.

[Warhead W-88]

No? No one? Am I the only geek here who's touched a twenty-sided die?

[Warhead W-88]

Hillary Rodham needs to make her saving throw against the remaindered bin.

[Joe 6-pack]

Didn't billy-jeff play, "Dungeon and Dragon," with moanica? "

[Nowhere Man]

No? No one? Am I the only geek here who's touched a twenty-sided die?

Sure, do ti all the time. I started with D&D but I'm more into games like Twilight: 2000 and The Morrow Project now. B-)

[Moose4]

ANOTHER new revision of the AD&D rules? Jeez, didn't they just rewrite them a couple years ago? (AD&D player off and on since 1979 here, and never turned into a Satanist.)

That's encouraging, actually. I thought pen and paper RPGs were dying.

[commish]

Running a party through the "Myth Drannor" module right now. I'm teaching my sons to ask the question "Are you a good lich or a bad lich?" ;-)

[dandelion]

(Raising my hand timidly) Don't let my husband know - otherwise I get no save against his +20 sword of derision...

[Arkinsaw]

but I thought it might make some people chuckle.

It did.

[Arkinsaw]

The Morrow Project

Had some really great MP games. The record for survival in our campaign was 66 days. Nobody else made it more than a couple of weeks.

[Stultis]

"We will bury her!"

[Arkinsaw]

Jeez, didn't they just rewrite them a couple years ago?

Got to keep the kiddies buying new books. I personally was completely satisfied by the 1st Edition. But who has time to play that stuff any more other than kids.

I hear that the new editions are "Open Gaming". Which is sort of like "Open Source" only slightly different. I think it means that you now have license to write your own adventures but they can publish it if they want without paying you anything.

STR 6

DEX 7

CON 11

INT 12 (20*)

WIS 4

CHA 8

* INT score modified by Headbands of Girl Power. These do not actually increase her INT score, but they convince millions of onlookers to behave as if she has an INT of 20. Saving throw DC 26 to avoid this enchantment. Anyone who is conservatively aligned (Lawful Conservative, Neutral Conservative, or Chaotic Conservative ("Libertarian")) gets a +6 circumstance bonus to make the save.


AC: 22 (Wears Pantsuit of Protection, +6)

HP: 88

Attacks: Glaring Stinkeye: Make saving throw (DC 22) or become nauseated, as per the spell

Summon Secret Servicemen: As a standard action, Hillary can summon 2d6 elite 8th level Secret Service Goons to rough you up

[Wombat101]

Twilight is still around? I thought GDW went out of business....

[Warhead W-88]

Yeahp, that's right. You can even slap on the d20 brand name on to your product, which is a quasi D&D brand name. You just can't use the actual D&D brandname for yourself; they reserve that, of course, for in house products.

[Wombat101]

Good one! But you forgot that she is also permanently surrounded by the Magic user spell "Protection from Reality" and has a "Ring of the Compliant Socialist Press", both of which make immune to the Special Prosecutors of Waterdeep". She also gets a +10 reaction adjustment from Urban Orcs, and is always accompanied by her sidekicks, Sid Blumenthal (15th level Toadie) and Paul Begala (12th level malignant dwarf).

[Warhead W-88]

I also forgot that she was a half-harpy.

And that she has at least a couple of skill levels in Playing for the Other Team.

Not that there's anything wrong with that.

[Wombat101]

P.S., if you can tell me where I can still find Twilight 2K stuff, I'd really appreciate it...Haven't seen it in years...

[FairOpinion]

Ooh, you mean Hillary is back up to 10? This morning it had slipped to #11. The Dems must have sent someone out to order enough copies to bump it up to 10.
