Maybe it's lucky I never ran my intended sequel to Borderlands, in which players run gangs peddling drugs and prostitutes etc in the slums of the world's sole surviving city (a hundred years or more after the first game).Menolly wrote:

I remember that proposed game.
You think you and Dorian had trouble talking me into playing Borderlands...

Yup! I live in Foster, about 20 kilometers from Wilson's Prom, surrounded by Andelainian-like hills. (But definitely not Andelain. Let's not start that one up again, hmmm Menolly?)Loremaster wrote:I'd be glad to have you in, Earthfriend.
By the way, do you live in Australia?
Will the new Dark Sun still have magic users who suck the life from their surroundings to fuel their spells, do you think? I particularly liked that detail...
Stone and Sea are deep in life,
two unalterable symbols of the world;
permanence at rest, and permanence in motion;
participants in the Power that remains.

If StevieG ever switches out avatars for the second one I photoshopped for him...
Although I really like his current one.

I hope that the Defilers are in it. They should be, as it's thematically necessary.Earthfriend wrote:Yup!

Re: Dark Sun is back!!!!
Yeah, but... it's still 4th Edition. I don't think even the Dark Sun setting can overcome the level of crap that is 4th Edition. I gave it a year. I *TRIED* to like 4th Edition. In the end, it was a good thing we'd saved all the 3.5 books, though.

I believe that 4e is the best version. It's miles ahead of 2nd edition, and third edition was just too bloated.goatkiller666 wrote:Yeah, but... it's still 4th Edition.

I like 3.5 As long as you don't think you NEED to have and use EVERY rulebook and EVERY rule.
