It actually rules to watch LLM centrism develop in real time. "Ok yes, tech bros are taking things way too far but LLM skeptics are just as silly, surely we can all agree that it's a transformative new technology and we all need to get onboard" and like, bro. Bro. We know who's side you're really on

It started as a strip in a roleplaying game magazine. Then it became a comic that ran for I think 21 issues.

I've long said that graveyards and golf courses should be combined since they're both massive wastes of real estate.

@squadronuk.bsky.social Golden Heroes Question: Dodge Modifiers from, say, Agility, Reactions, Skills (Gymnastics) and Speed... are they cumulative? Rolled all 4.

There is some replication with Agility and Gymnastics with regard to "Swinging" into Attacks, but I assume these are NOT cumulative.

Four covers colored by Wood, including Batman vs the Incredible Hulk, Superman vs Wonder Woman, Adventure Comics featuring the Spectre, and Detective Comics featuring Batman and Manhunter.

Tatjana Wood was a very prolific colorist, who contributed to several of DC Comics' best runs of all time, & colored an amazing amount of their covers from the 1970s to 1990s. She was also an artist who assisted Wally Wood during their marriage.

With regard to Hembree's SR Combat it's very similar to something I came up with, and I'm sure I'm not the only one. Lots of convergent evolution in T&T houseruling.

Agreed, most folks run a Frankengame, myself included. But I'm comfortable calling alt-7th an outlier. Doubtless there is some lonely troll out there for whom it is the pinnacle of T&T. No shade, some of my favorite games are forgotten, ignored, and/or reviled.

Good points that have changed my perspective a bit. Minor counterpoint: most of what you've listed probably isn't core to the T&T experience for most fans. Never seen wounds affecting Missile SRs used IRL, and nobody plays alt 7th. Still, food for thought.

Today is International Women's Dayβ€”a fitting date to commemorate the 40th anniversary of the Hawkmoon roleplaying game and its lead designer, RPG trailblazer Kerie Campbell-Robson. In 1986, 20 year old Kerie was one of the very first female lead designers in the industry.

can't "love libraries" and not fight for them to be fully funded.
