Re: Is Alliance a solo/team game? (split from Packet Head sh So, I've basically only got one character, though I have a few waiting in the wings. and he's never not been a member of a (albeit small) team. I can't envision him ever going solo, as, well, he's just not that dude. I have a...

For whatever reason, the only pictures that come up are...Michiko's userpics on the CT board. I'm not even sure why.

There's a sign place near me in Arlington MA that sells it. How much you need, Kelsey?

I guess I'm just old fashioned. I've blanketed rarely, and usually only because I couldn't get to my local chapter due to unforeseen or annoying circumstance. (though I am trying the gold membership at CT this year) I guess I'm just coming at this from an old, tabletop point of view. I don't...

I'm just going to throw this out here....but we were founded on "No taxation without representation"...which at the time was the Polar opposite of "might makes right". Might, in this case, being the standing British armies and navies dedicated to keeping the colony's under British rule. We kind...

Ah, now I understand now. Dryad makes this harder. You're stuck with Leather or cloth there. No metal. And any armor with enough studs to count as...well armor, would be too much metal, as I understand it. Treating it as scratchy wool is up to your local plot to determine, but is outside the...

Try reading this: http://www.arador.com/articles/chainmail.html I'd try the bit on "banded mail" (figure four on that page) as that can be done with steel Washers, would be fairly good protection and is Most likely to work they way you are suggesting. I believe I've seen a couple of examples in...

Dude. You bring a newbie Ogre to CT, Look us up! House Vindicator. We'll buy you a "beer" tell you the story of our recently departed brother Grinnok, who was born an ogre, and became a dryad to get closer to the earth. and possibly kill a few undead in his name with you. Good Times!

The problem I had with DA2 was that while you did heroic things....you were never allowed to be a hero. Any side you chose is wrong at the end of the game. Your efforts are mostly too little and too late. you can kill a dragon...after it's slaughtered dozens. You can stop a blood mage...after...

So, I may have mentioned, I'm a newer player to the NE alliance. I played my first year at the old CT site. I played my first game as first level fighter with one longsword (because that was the only weapon that passed) I wasn't very effective. I did not, however, get rolled faster than I could...

Who says natural selection and evolution aren't magic? Look at the humble Platypus. An uglier, more D&D style little homunculus does not exist. :funny:

Frankly, IG, my character can't tell the difference between an Ettercap and a Spiderkin. One is a talking humanoid spider thing..the other is a talking humanoid spider thing. One of the two is a "monster". I treat them both like Kin. It's worked out for me......So far. It'll hurt someday I'm...

If anything, I'm shocked that there are any consistencies with monsters chapter to chapter at all. Flora and fauna wise, Each chapter is MORE isolated from one another than Australia is from the rest of the world. 50 million (or so I don't have the exact calendar date ; ) ) years ago, Australia...

Also, It can't hurt to give a bit more flavor. What material? what size? Do you have a costuming theme? Leather lamellar scale might work well for a mage torso. http://www.tandyleatherfactory.com/stor ... 28-25.aspx check this out. If it's outside of your price range you can always see about...

I've used http://www.brettunsvillage.com/leather/ Brettun's always done well by me, but tends towards thinner leather.
