is it just me or is something wrong with audio

[thekingofrpgs]

The audio is taken directly from the soundtrack of "The Streetfighter" (it's in public domain), so it's a little choppy like the original 1974 movie quality.

I just got your book.....read it in one sitting!!!!!!!! (5-6 hours)

Can't wait for the second one....you should turn this into an anime.

I especially like how you show'd more than just mages and monsters especially shadow"gear" lol

theodore reminds me of me, his room looks like mine, and I like to play music during games, but I use manetic walls and a board rather than dry erase markers....I think I may make a donation to your busfare fund but let me know if you come to NY. lol

@Limejello10512 Thanks! We're probably only going to Toronto Comics Festival, Project A-Kon and Sakuracon this year, but hopefully I'll come to New York and we can play a game of something before too long! :) I just discovered magnetic walls, in fact, I'm getting some magnetic paint put up in my house in the next few days.

Very cool! Well made sir!

I just like all the customization options in 3rd with the skills. Two rouges can play very differently, where in 4th the skills are generic and the talents are specific. I guess my main issue with 4th is it feels to much like an MMO.

Oh and my favorite type system is a skills based system like White Wolf's Vampire. Too bad all the books are horribly laid out.

[Limejello10512]

@thekingofrpgs yeah but you did say you liked 3rd better. Everyone I know has. See if I were designing it I would have gone with the new trained skill system, would have used the modern talent/bonus feat system, created a feat system that used nonfeats (which had equal bonus and penalties) and anti-feats (panelties that allowed you to select extra feats which could each be selected at the players option for a limited number of times. and maybe switch magic to a manapoint system

@Limejello10512 Well, I never said I didn't like 4th edition... ;) It's just better for a certain style of gaming, and 3rd is better for another style.

[Limejello10512]

@thekingofrpgs aha! See you too! I haven't met one person yet who liked 4th edition

I guess I'll make up a pair of pathfinder characters for my freind and I. FIgured I'd play a knowledgable young wizard and he'd play a handy elven rogue who made something of a watson and sherlock holmes duo.

[thekingofrpgs]

@Limejello10512 I play both 3rd ed/Pathfinder (actually I like original 3rd the best, but oh well ;) ) and 4th edition. They're both good for different types of gaming... 3rd is better for intricate world-building, and 4th is a better introductory system.

[Limejello10512]

@thekingofrpgs as a quick aside though I'm not one of those hate everyhting new players infact I'm usually obsesive about buying the next new edition of a game. The only two times I've done that are with dnd 4th and mechwarrior 3rd aka classic battletech...luckily 4th edition fixed everyhting that was wrong with it. But I hate 4th edition.. Still I can come with a character prepared.
