Give Our Troops The Gift Of Second-Hand Dorkiness
I don't even want to admit how I ran into this link, but this cat at wants to send our troops RPG's, dice, maybe even some DM Screens and "modules."
You know you've got some crap games you never play. Or some stuff you've already played and don't play anymore. Hey, why not send it to our troops?
If I had a "Magic d20" -- the one that always comes up 20 when you most need it -- I'd send it along. Our boys need it more than my friend Stinky does.
Also needed: Doritos, Mountain Dew, t-shirts reading "Rules-Lawyers Do It By The Book" and bumper-stickers that say "My Other Car is +4 Paladin's Warhorse."
And please, VonKreedon, don't send that homebrew GURPS game of yours which de-emphasizes combat in favor of "communication" and "peaceful interaction" and where your main stats are Empath, Commitment to Social Progressive Justice, Really Listening To What You're Saying, I Feel You, Man, I Went To Brown University When People Still Gave a Shit, and General Pussy-Crap.
That's not the sort of RPG our boys need. THey need games where they get to kick the shit out of bugbears without Al Jazeera and Newsweek getting all up their noses about "profaning" the name of Grr'gluchstach, Bugbear God of War and Oversized Hammers With Big Spikey Bits.
