Soon the Dwarves will be seen.

Re: Michele Bachmann is now a Swiss citizen
As she applied for foreign citizenship, her United States citizenship can be revoked. Basically, the next time she has one of her flip-outs where she vows to leave the country because it is ruled by Communist Nazis, the State Department can determine that to be "intent to renounce" and str...

Re: SDNW5 Map Discussion Thread
If the Dwarven Conclave's 6 sectors could be added to the map, it would be appreciated. I'm even less picky now than I was previously. Just stick'em anywhere in any pattern.

Re: Did the Allies know they were going to win?
SHAEF felt that the German reversals in Russia, with their massive losses in men, material, leadership, and overall effectiveness was the turning point in the war. Let's go with July 1943: 1) Sicily invaded and Italian mainland put in jeopardy and ended Mussolini's utility. 2) Kursk. 3) Continued fa...

Re: Close-quarter combat; Combat Shovel or Bayonet?
Judging from all the wars and battles throughout the 20th to 21st Century, I have to ask - in the end, which is a better close-quarter combat weapon, a sharpened combat shovel, or a standard knife-bayonet? Going back to the OP since the thread seems to have drifted away into other things... Combat ...

Give up, Steve. You can't win against Southern Apologists. Their truth is the one they decide upon, and everything else is a lie and anyone speaking those lies is an enemy.

I priced him there simply to burn some cash, but in a way, it's appropriate. When he was rolled up as a AD&D 1st edition character... 28 years ago (Dear God, I'm old), he was just a dwarf fighter, level 1. Then strange things began to happen... for one, he never ever missed a saving throw, even ...

Oderus Urungus, Balsac the Jaws of Death, Beefcake the Mighty, Jizmak Da Gusha, and Flattus Maximus are each worth $1.
