No Surrender, No Retreat - Release Date?
Hey, what's wrong with insanity? Just remember that the people in charge of the world are supposedly sane.
Me, I'm going for Teek and Psi-X. If you're going to go insane ,do it properly. (Besides which you can end up with some truly weird abilities.)
Mind you, I'm going from the opposite end. Not Psi Corp. and a Latent used in experiments. Of course, my GM has already hit me with one kidnapping ,as the Corporation involved try to get their test subject back. (There's just not enough unlisted Latent Telepaths about.)
Rule: 3. Don't put anything in your character background that you don't want to get hit with later.
Damn, knew I made my background too long.(Over 3 lines)
Remember with the Psi-X , the methods used to acheive the "results" are not designed to be healthy for the subject, just effective in acheiving the desired results.

I think the Computer over on the Paranoia XP board is spreading...either that or Microsoft infiltrated the system...or we could always blame it on the Borg...lastbesthope wrote:[subliminal]

You mean you didn't keep a copy or better still just let the GM read it but kept it yourself.
My problem was, I didn't know any of the companies operating in B5 and so didn't write one down. The 2nd problem was trying to think of what drug tests she would have been involved in and couldn't think of many, so wrote down classified for two. Have a look through NRNS to see who I got hit with.
I have just managed to get a copy of NSNR and think that it was very well done. Ok ,I had a laugh at Lyta Alexander's stats but as whoever it was that wrote the book pointed out he had to create a character class from a character. The explanations of the thoughts of people in series helped to clear up a lot that I didn't understand from the last season.
BY the way, is there any particular reason a lot of people have mustelids after their names, are they people who work for the mustelid company.

And Wood Pussy Publishing would be a whole different thing.

In answer to your original question, those with mustelids before their name work for Mustelid Publishing Ltd, the rest of us just earn the aforementioned mammal by spending our free time posting inanities like this on these boards.

Why should I (we?) not go there?
and
Why is it called "Mongoose Publishing"?
Hmmm?

State Secret?
Or are you just afraid we might laugh so hard, we get a heart-attack and die, leaving you without some of your best customers?
