[quote="devlin1"] Let me put this out there, though: given the premise of an interdimensional A-Team in which you can play just about any character concept you can imagine, what character would you play? A very wide variety of skills and abilities would be required from the party.[/quote] I'l have ...

Rotating GMs, everyone taking thier turn. Conan and SW til their done, then next GM, no one dominating GM slots. That's how I thought it was supposed to go. But if you don't want to run yet you don't have to.

Lowly Uhlan

~~[quote="devlin1"]~~God, I dunno. I'm still surprised that people want to do it. In any event, there are other games in line ahead of it, so I have a little time to think about it.[/quote]

What other games? You haven't GMed yet so that should put you at the top of the list.

Lowly Uhlan

It sounds like a good premise for a campaign (since no one has the balls to play Dark Champions

)

How many points?

I completely agree.

D&D Guy also won the D&D Intro event. He's probably been playing for 20 years. Maybe he can teach me how to play!

Lowly Uhlan

Don't say that, I'm in denial

Lowly Uhlan

Right. One of the coolest things I ever saw was an alternate universe cross between Cap and Dethlok. It's just good to fuck with Captain America.

[quote="Count Zero"][quote:d74c3c626d="Lowly Uhlan"] Makes a big difference when the GM has a good handle on the rules, and the game doesn't turn into a 4 hour dialog on game mechanics.

Lowly Uhlan

So there was this fat guy who sat at the boardgame table for all 10 days (most likely). Went off on another player over reading a card. Later that night another guy went off (at the same table) saying "Don't help me! let me play my turn!" Then stormed out of the room. Was messing around wi...

Also, I was very impressed by the guy who won all the D&D games. I've heard he's the best D&D gamer ever. Like, he rolls ~~[i]~~really [/i]well.[/quote]

What a fucking loser. I've hated that guy since I first saw him.

I might have to go look at that drivethru thing. I've heard that they have the new Gamma World for free. No cash up front, then a whole printer cartridge ($70) to have a hard copy. What a deal.
