Seriously, does no one read this thing? AND A Joke about my D&D character

[thebitterguy]

Come on: A Wonder Woman fanzine called "Bound and Determined"? That's genius, right there!

Feh.

In other words, the Thursday Night GM (The Greatest GM Ever TM) has let us know that 4E does not easily support people taking over others PCs during an absence, and has suggested we might create documents to allow other players to get a handle on how to use the character's various abilities in a considered, tactical manner.

I think Lacklow's would be pretty straightforward.

Is it alive?

Yes: Stab it in the eye.

No: Flank another enemy and stab it in the eye

Is it Still alive?

Yes: How about a Daily?

No: Flankity flankity, stabbity stabbity.

Is it still alive?

Yes: I'm fresh out of ideas. Hide behind the Dragonborn, maybe?

No: We're going all aboard on a stabby train!

In other news, I still can't imagine why Paul compares him to Belkar.

I found it funny, but not enough to comment. :-)

Same here.

It's like a Catwoman fanzine called "Kitten with a Whip"

How psyched am I that I can finally play an Elan-alike? It's Bardy Time now, friends!

Can't wait to take a level in badass.

When it comes to B&D, I would have shared my mirth with each and every one of the internets, but for exorbitant roaming 3G and very infrequent public wifi on Manhattan.

Looks like an effective flowchart :)

My Saturday group has had a few characters that get passed around due to absences. This can be difficult depending on the person's handwriting and how full their notes are, but the actual running of the characters doesn't seem any worse than having to run Bob's magic-user in earlier editions (well, provided Bob is higher than 1st: "Okay, so what can you do?" "I cast sleep." "Anything else" "Nope, that's it. I guess I could throw darts or something, but mostly I just stay in the back and try not to make any sudden movements")

I think this kind of thing could maybe be more clearly represented by a state machine diagram; I will see what I can do up for ya tomorrow... 8/

Heh. Now I'm picturing a Final-Fantasy-XII-style flowchart of commands...
