If they wanted to please the dice-rolling crowd, they could randomly generate stats that always add up to the same point total. I.e. just: randomly assign points to the ability columns, use the points to generate the abilities assign any points left over (from insufficient totals to increase a high abilities) as bumps to the lowest abilities The dice rollers can then go mad using it to generate randomized character types.

~32 months until 2016 elections not counting the lag from the elections to the swearing in ceremony Shows what I know. Typically brinksmanship like this is what miscreants try when a President is beset elsewhere, or about to leave*. Mind you, what the hell has the Obama Whitehouse done internationally to deter any aggressive action against allies or potential allies? *On reflection I'm not sure they DO try stuff on the out Has there been any 'aggressive action' threatened to US allies recently ? And in any event, you think Russia's going to really care ? Russia may or may not care, but a full-on invasion will end up hurting them economically. It may lead to sanctions, loss of business ties, and other impacts. The net impact depends on how much resistance the Ukraine is willing to raise.n/mPoE is a famous literary figure; PE is something I do at a urinal. Guess which I prefer?Less appealing than what? It's a community-made acronym.Saga Heroes "Saga Heroes is an action/adventure RPG where you, a humble villager, are called on a quest to save the world from evil by uncovering the cause of the corruption of the land by a cult called The Shadow, whose sole purpose is to release the Elder God of Death, Goth-Azul." In other words, standard swords & sorcery stuff. To me the goal of $10,000 seems pretty low for the graphical quality and planned platform ports. But it might be good.Season 2 of Vikings begins tonight...Well... the thing is that not a few people are stereotypically shallow and superficial. People may not like the behavior of blatant sexism because it doesn't fit the modern, indoctrinated, starchy P.C. behavior model, but sometimes you need to go against conventional expectations in order to drive a story. This setting is, after all, not the U.S. in the 21st century. As long as her motivations are consistent and drive that behavior, then it seems like a feasible addition.<enters/> You guys are still at it? Hmm... <leaves/>I've devised +1 field plate skepticism that wards off pronouncements about working nuclear fusion being "just around the corner". Sure. Whatever. It was just around the corner four decades ago. Now it's a physicist jobs program. Work on solar cell technology is making remarkable and steady progress, and it has the benefit of being useable now.Soon...Thank you for the update, it was an enjoyable read. Perhaps monsters that can disguise themselves as children; appearing as slightly odd looking, raggamuffin pickpockets during the day but swarming flesh eaters at night. (Piles of fish guts will typically sate them, supplemented by the occasional drunken human wandering down the wrong alley).Yep. Might will be useful for instantaneous/point target damage effects (Flaming Arrow); Intellect for cumulative/area damage effects (Acid Mist). Fireball will benefit from both.Posted yesterday: Extended Gameplay Trailer #1 - "Welcome to the Prison"I see the UFOlogy quasi-religion has contaminated the Science channel now. I was really hoping those guys on SC would raise the bar a bit, ... but no. Watch folks as we just make up cr*p for hours at a time! Grrr...The best part of NWN2 is the toolset; there are scads of player-made downloadable modules you can play, including good quality implementations of Icewind Dale and Baldur's Gate.
