There was a loose, unclosed HTML tag in this post which was screwing everything up.<br /><br />Re: The game, it seems like it would have been a fun little system. I am not hardcore enough to debate the merits or drawbacks of different systems in much detail, but from reading the different character cards I have seen posted it seems like most of them are pretty straightforward, which is good for a superhero game.<br /><br />@Liss: I just have a thought of Shayera threatening the writer with her mace.

I'm not skilled enough to rebuilt it on my own, and Google no longer offers Son of Mogo or whatever as a default.

"Married" is a way more manageable disadvantage than "ex-junkie murderer."<br /><br />Part of the fun of Mayfairstivus is you have guys like Shag and Anj getting really into the history and gaming mechanics, guys like me narrowing on character stats, and guys like you and Liss who come from the outside perspective and offer entirely different angles on the whole shebang. I enjoyed your post, and the best thing about a ten day crossover is that there's no time pressure. Just getting published means you're right on schedule, because here's someone coming in as another finishes up/takes a break.Diabolu Frankhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04685199809207954223noreply@blogger.com
