A thread for magus!

So I know this is ultra geeky, but I don't give a rats ass. How many of you have played D&D? Either now, or in the past? I used to play, then didn't for years. Last year, my friend tried to get a game going again, but it only lasted for like a month.

So now we're trying to get a game going again. We have loads of fun. It's not geeky at all, we chill out, drink beers, and bullshit and bust each others balls. In fact, we dont get that much accomplished with the game usually. We just kind of hang out.

So have you guys played D&D or any other RPG? There's tons of them out there.

gee.. if this is a thread for ME... I wonder if that means I've allready played??? heh heh heh

I have alternates to suggest as well:
White Wolf: Vampire (personal horror) Mage(reality-horror) Changeling (tragic-fantasy) Mummy (ancient war with evil) Hunter (kill all of the above)

Deadlands: Man with no Name meets Pinhead (or as they put it, the Spaghetti Western with Meat)

Paranoia (how many different ways can you die today?)

Call of Cthulhu (Lovecraft's mind-shredding evils, you get to fight them!!)

I would love to play Call of Cthulhu, but I think the only other one in the group that would like it is my one friend. He's read every Cthulhu related story he can get his hands on.

HedCold · 05-06-2002, 04:41 AM

i played once. one of the dumbest things i've ever taken part in.

Maynard · 05-06-2002, 04:48 AM

Yeah, thats the typical response from people with no imagination. I think people are just afraid of it. It's like reading a book, only you are the one writing the book, with several other people. I always thought it was geeky too, but once you play, it's really not.

A guy I dated in college used to write these books... I think it was White wolf. It had "wolf" in the title anyway. :thumbs-up:

Skitchr4u · 05-06-2002, 01:44 PM

I was into Warhammer 40k for about 2 months, but I stopped playing because :

1) I was tired of spending 2 hours to paint every figure, only to have them wiped out in the first 3 minutes of the game.
2) Got too expensive. When I decided to quit, I took all my remaining peices, painted them up, and sold them as lots on Ebay. Made about $200, so I barely broke even.

I have a case of Magic the Gathering cards that comes with two decks, a playing guide, and a bag of marbles that are suppossed to represent hit points or magic points I think. I think it cost me $25. I've played it once. I was very confused by it.

I feel like such a sucker. :angry:

Maynard · 05-06-2002, 07:36 PM

Magic isn't an RPG, its a "trading card game". :thumbs-up:

And yes, it's pretty gay.
