My alma mater has used domes like that for its tennis courts for ages. I'd never have thought anything amiss about them.

I thought those covers looked familiar. I've got one of their TimeLords modules kicking around.

I think I paid for a cyber choke in one 2E game, but never actually used it. We mostly played theatre of the mind.

I remember, once upon a time, when SJG had a warehouse out in... Alberta, I think it was. At the time I thought it was a lovely idea, since I'd ordered books straight from them in the past. It didn't last very long, and in retrospect I have to wonder who thought it was a good idea.

I remember flipping through the 1E Rigger's Black Book and thinking, "How cute, it wants to be Car Wars." Both used CF as a measurement, but RBB swore up and down that it meant 'Construction Factor' and not 'cubic feet'. Tangentially, my Shadowrun GM put a pintle mount on a motorcycle, thanks to that book.

Fun fact: Combat in UA is unpleasant. Gun combat, especially so. That's not to say it's mechanically bad, but it hurts. A lot. Hence why the combat section of the rulebook starts with 'Six Ways to Stop a Fight'.

I'd be really surprised if any of those pregens had a Major charge. Those can be extremely difficult to get your hands on, to the point of the search for one being a potential campaign focus, and the casting of a Major spell potentially editing reality in a significant way. I can't remember if it's stated outright anywhere, but the metaplot reset referenced at times in the core books could have been a particularly major Major effect.

NGDBSS posted:In particular that was a response to how late 2e worked, where the casters could just go nova with a full complement of spells and then use some obscure 2nd-level cleric spell for a quick rest and refresh. (Ask NinjaDebugger for more details, they were around for the playtest scene from there through 4e.) Where the Hell did Nap come from, anyway? The only canonical source I encountered was the Deck of Cleric Spell Cards. On the topic of charop, that poo poo falls apart right quickly on contact with house rules. Diplomancer was DOA with my old DM, simply because we'd never used reaction rolls in the past and he wasn't inclined to start then.

Pretty much. By the end of TSR, you could set your watch by the release of a second edition setting box that turned everything on its ear.

Cooked Auto posted:I think the only time our group cared about spell components in our 5e games was when they were really expensive. Otherwise it was just covered via the magic component pouch or a spell focus of some kind. We tried tracking mundane components when we started playing 2E back in the day, but quickly decided that unless it has a GP cost, it isn't worth keeping tabs on.

I see the 'generally' there, but between the armchair diagnosis of DID and having gone under the knife to deal with a perfectly good organ myself... no. gently caress that.

SkyeAuroline posted:What intent did you think it had coming in? I'm mostly curious because RM wears its message/intent on its sleeve (excessively so at times, which I'll be covering in the next post). My brain recoiled at 'zombies', flew right up my rear end, and decided it was a Libertarian hellscape and not the kind of hellscape it really is.

Baku posted:God, I noticed this poo poo years ago and it's completely loving bewildering unless they have some kind of insanely lucrative kickback from Amazon or something. I went to buy my partner a copy of the PHB because she's playing D&D for the first time this month (I know, I know, whatever) and it was $50 on the shelf at both the local bookstore and LGS. I ordered it from Amazon for $23 because you'd be insane not to do that, but either they're losing money hand-over-fist there or actively trying to drive every non-Amazon retailer of their products out of business and neither one makes sense to me. From what I understand, Amazon often demands absolutely vicious discounts from suppliers so that they can screw the little guy and pass the savings on to you. There was a huge furor over this in the print industry a year or so back when they tried to dictate terms to publishers.

I said it before, Red Markets' background reads like a lovely leftist answer to Hc Sunt Dracones. I don't think we'd really miss anything if you gave it a broad strokes read.
