Yeah and even if not, that sounds really cool.  I can almost imagine most of the SC2 races being adapted to fantasy with some adjustments.  If you want any help hashing out details, please PM me!

[Sergius]

I thought about Spelljammin' them but decided to go for a more "conventional" setting. Heck, if they want we can do a Mad Max setting. Just the names (races) and places and MacGuffins and general story objectives will remain the same Add some fantasy settings and it will look more like He-Man.

In the extreme case of non-aliens/races I would have to do some silly faction reskinning of the aliens as humans/mutants.

Sure, that will be appreciated I'll let you know if it ever takes off and what setting style has been decided.

I just ran across Let's Read The Complete Book of Elves (all the way from 2012 so you very well might have seen it before) and thought some of you might enjoy it.

We do not deign to acknowledge the slanderous propaganda spread by the stunted humans who call themselves dwarves. The little miners have always had a rather, shall we say, biased outlook on history and the true workers of reality. They call themselves the finest creatures to grace the worlds--with bodies like that, we suppose one would have to have an active fantasy life.

Literally Trump with a larger vocabulary.

So in DnD/Pathfinder news I recently made a fire mage.
We're doing game modules, so models are required.

Spoiler: I provided (click to show/hide)

I hate that the only people who can really appreciate quality in miniature painting are people who have painted longer than you.

Also in 40k news.
My Imperial guard army has gotten away from me slightly.

Spoiler: Yes, we have a games room. (click to show/hide)

Ok, this photo was originally taken for a friend from whom I bought the ~750 points on the left side.
Wanted to show him they haven't sat idle.

It now takes up a whole shelf on our '40k stuff' shelf. Housemates give me a little grief.
But I am a swarm army, what can I do?

[Yoink]

Sounds like you have an awesome house setup, there.
Army's looking good, too!

[scriver]

You have an X-Wing in your army?

I can dig that :v

I probably haven't been painting longer than you, but I've been at least looking at painted miniatures for about five years and that one is one of the nicest ones.

Oh.. ah... thank you. *sheepish*
I meant it was mostly drybrushing... Comparatively, painting between the lines is much harder, some of which I had failed to do.

Yeah, I've kind of let shit pile up all over our tables though...

Thanks! Now I've figured out what colors to paint it.

[scriver]

I like the fire dude too, by the way. But I agree that I could probably not appreciate the work put into it itself, but I definitely can appreciate the quality of the outcome :v

I hope his book says "I prepared Explosive Runes this morning".

[penguinofhonor]

I have no experience with this whatsoever, but that mage rocks. I understand why people pay you to do that.

[Tack]

I do not know why, but I was not really expecting praise.
So.. um.. thanks.

Also I'm pretty sure the glowy rune on the book is Storms/Wrath.
Doublealso me getting paid for that stuff was just a one-off. I wouldn't say I'm yet good enough, but mostly Straya's too empty.

[penguinofhonor]

I just tied for first place at the Battle for Zendikar prerelease! Got nine packs.

I had a blue/black/red Eldrazi deck. I used all three colors about evenly, which can be risky, but it really only screwed me over once. And I won that game, too - with four red cards in my hand and no mountains. I managed to open up a decent amount of exiling and processor cards (which use up exiled cards for a bonus effect) to work with each other consistently and I have to say it was really fun. The exile stuff basically adds another resource to deal with on top of mana, and it changes up how the game feels.

And in my winnings I got a foil full-art mountain, which is sweet.

I would like to hand in my "I'm an adult" card while keeping my current pay please. That or just stop going to Half Price Books.

See, I've got an RPG bookshelf. It's quite full at the moment and I promised my wife I wouldn't buy anything I already don't have at least one book for until we move into a house with a spare room I can commandeer. Just over the past week, this has forced me to pass up complete boxed sets of Ravenloft and Forgotten Realms, Alternity, and City of Brass. Today, I had to pass up Spirit of the Century and both 7th Sea core books, both of which I've played in college and quite enjoyed.

So, rather than any of those neat things, I nabbed an adventure for the Arcanis d20 setting.

I think I have a problem.

[Kadzar]

I didn't realize Half Price Books sold RPGs. Good to know.

[Mephisto]

Used books, yes, and sometimes not for cheap. One of my local stores has Continuum: Roleplaying in the Yet which I'm interested in, but this book from 1999 (as of yesterday, the book is 16 years old) is still going for $50. It's $75 on Amazon so maybe that's a steal but it doesn't feel right paying MSRP for used goods.
