Hell, I'll volunteer. Why don't you attempt a no-new-system run? No getting teleporters, cloaks, or anything that your ship doesn't start with.

It clearly isn't.  Everyone knows that you have to have at least three forms before the final form.
Only if you're a villain. Heroes have at most two forms: their regular form, and their ultimate evil-smiting form which will only be accessed for the final battle.

Of course, there's always an exception, but that's the general rule.

I could have sworn I saw a bunch of supplements for Pathfinder at my local game store. Maybe they were for a different system, but it was definitely a paper-and-pen game and it wasn't D&D.

It probably was pathfinder, Piazo/Paizo(sp?) has been publishing stuff under that name for a while, and a handful of the old 3rd party d20/OGL publishers still produce a limited number of supplements for the system.
So you're saying that you want supplements from WoTC in particular?

Not really. Piazo is doing a good job, what I really want back is d20 modern and polyhedron.
Alright, I suppose that makes sense.

Hey Dutchling, you can tell us what you want to be, we won't judge.

I slept all night with my windows open, I was told there was ice outside in the morning.

I didn't notice it because I had a cat on my face when I woke up.
That cat might have saved your life, dude. Give it some fish or something as a reward!

Savescumming and focusing entirely on satellite coverage, if I remember correctly.

Apparently, Martin Luther King Jr. was at trekkie, and was instrumental in convincing the actor for Uhura to stay on the show.

Crying inside right now ;o;

Yeah, that's one of my favorite stories to tell.

Gene was so incredibly progressive. Having a black woman so high on the chain of command back then was incredible.
IIRC, Star Trek also had the first interracial kiss on national television. That was fairly unprecedented for the time as well!


IIRC the network wouldn't let the actual kiss moment occur on screen though.
Crap. Well, at least Gene (probably) had good intentions.

Eh, it'd be more of a big deal if boarding events were more threatening. Level 2 doors should let you do most of the damage via venting, and the Zoltan Shield gives you plenty of time to take that route even if it's coupled with an enemy ship.

Also, wheee just passed 100 hours of playtime in this game. I wish Steam saved how much you paid for a game to make it easier to compute entertainment efficiency- I think I bought this for 7 bucks, which would give me ~14 hours/dollar. Not too shabby.
Unless they board into some vital system, where you have to hit them right away or can't afford to remove crew for venting. Depending on the ship layout, there's all sorts of places where this might be possible.

Well, the magic powers the flying, they flying device you wear on your legs, and the enemy came in the middle of people being at the beach. The rest of the time theres an enemy is more like this.
A "Referral Denied" error message? Unusual enemy design, I must say.

@ Frumple: Yeah, okay you have a point. Still, as a concept I'd rank "magic girls with jet/propeller legs" pretty high on the Bizzaro list.

Well, it involves more girls. And magic. Occasionally they break the sound barrier instead of sitting on the beach.

They also have guns.
Da fuq was that? Buncha girls in swimsuits with airplane legs? With magic?
Every time I think I hit the weirdness limit, I find something new.
