My whole squad is a bunch of gamers, we set it up that way, (if our integrity is not messed up during the MOB) I am looking for the core books on CD so I can pack it in a CD case instead of a ruck sack!
The piece is very true, in the same way every generation of cell phone looks more like a Star Trek communicator and for the same reason!
I love the last line ...and I hope the democrats manage to conjure up more than a magic shield... how about several sorcerers with access to Burning Hands and Magic Missile
And it was a great article... I'm part of the new generation of gamers, raised with one parent tentatively supportive of it, and the other one slightly hostile to it. Started gaming with the old West End Games Star Wars RPG back in 4th grade... good times good times.
I still have trouble imagining gamer parents... it just seems like an oxymoron to me.
My son showed me how old I was last night. We were talking about which edition of D&D I played in highschool, back in 1980-81. I was sure it was second edition. He showed me the copyrites on the books and it was first edition. I still have the player's guide, copyriteds 1974 I think. I also have the second edition, copyrited 1989, but I had basically stopped playing by then, due to family things.
Now I am playing in a group with my oldest son, who is 13, and we are using the 3.5 edition. He is amazed at how I know how to role play and that I actually understand the background theory behind the rules.
This is actually making me cool to my teenage son.
