I just subscribed to Marvel Unlimited, so I just polished the first two issues of the X-Men from '63. (And they're rereads.) I have a feeling I'll be spending a lot of time going through that. As I head up to bed, I'll probably end up finishing David Eddings' Domes of Fire tonight, then start on the...

I'm not 100% sure on the timing, but my first non-D&D role-play was either Rifts ,the Marvel Super Heroes Game, or Star Wars (the d6 version).

I discovered that my son had deleted my data for Mario Kart 8, so I'm playing that. I certainly enjoy it in 1 player mode. I'm sure I'd get mad playing it online, because I'm probably not good enough for online play.

I have sheets for the missing 3, but I have to go through them. I'm in the process of doing a character sheet "audit" for everyone. I trust you all, I'm just trying to make sure that there aren't mistakes on the sheets. I also am trying to avoid my consistent "does that hit you?"...

Just so you all know, from the DM's perspective, I'm basically ready for any of these options. There might be a case of a hastily made somewhat crappy looking map, but I'm ready.

I totally forgot that I'd scored points this year. WOOHOO!

The tougher part is finding the humor.

If it's a game we're introducing to people, everyone who's played before gets to go first, so the newbies can see game play.

Does Hero's Quest from Milton Bradley count?

If not, the D&D core set, the one with the black box and red dragon. I think I could draw Zanzer Tem's dungeon from memory.

Continuing on from the previous boards.... Game 5: Hercules vs Freya ROUND ONE Hercules begins the assault by summoning a Fire Juggler, a pyromaniac goblin from the plane of Llorwyn. The goblin gets in attack before being reinforced by some Fault Riders. Freya has only been able to access links to h...
