  1. @jdjeffers Exactly! How cool would it be to play out the War of Five Kings around a table?
  2. @RobZacny The Domains at War rules are a work in progress, but I've played prototypes and it's dang fun to throw units against orcs, etc.
  3. @RobZacny That's the principle behind ACKS. Eventually, your dungeon-delvers would be powerful enough to shape (fictional) history.
  4. @RobZacny Understandable. ACKS is the Adventurer Conqueror King System - a retroclone RPG I helped write. autarch.co
  5. I'm thinking of a King Lear scenario, where an emperor leaves different keeps/marches to his children and then dies with no clear heir.
  6. Reading the ACKS mass combat rules - Domains at War - makes me want to run a game where the group members control different armies.
  7. @MikeKayatta Damn it. The black stain! ... of course, that's every game.
  8. @MikeKayatta yeah. It's unclear if I'm actually enjoying Dragon's Dogma or if Stockholm syndrome has set in.
  9. @Stitched And yet I'm pretty sure it's a binary choice. It's that polarizing.
  10. I can't decide whether I like Dragon's Dogma because it's good or if I'm broken as a human being.
  11. @oldbie I have seen that one with the botfly on the scalp. That's just scary but just as fascinating.
  12. @Aszurom Must. Not. Google...
  13. I just watched several videos of people popping huge pimples and cysts. I couldn't look away. I feel unwell.
  14. @vdizzle129 @SusanArendt @s0osleepie I've got to agree. Stannis is boring, but he's got the best claim and would probably be the best king.
  15. @Terminus1973 yeah, sad news.
  16. @russpitts heh, I had the same reaction to Zim's book pitch. What a bunch of retreaded old "wisdom".
  17. @DanielSolis @oldbie Sagefight is awesome. But this has a magic wand, man. Powered by tooth of blue! kickstarter.com/projects/movea…
  18. @oldbie Totally. For the Escapist Expo maybe? Let's hope they raise the money.
  19. Looks freaking badass. @oldbie: Kickstarter for an AR wizard duel smartphone game with a Bluetooth magic wand. kck.st/MHKgwz
