The topic for the Feb 6 Melee Academy is “fighting people better than you.”
Nuke ’em from orbit?
We had the first school game night over at my daughter’s school. Attendance was light but dedicated. There were four adults and five children. We wound up playing for five hours, with various games being explored. Games played Munchkin Treasure Hunt: Easily picked up by all comers, and my 5.5yo explained the rules to everyone….
Arm Lock as a combat technique has had a long and somewhat storied history in GURPS. As a result of a Forum thread (that I’m not going to link to here; it’s not the point) I went back and looked at commentary and execution on the technique since 4e came out in 2004. It’s worth…
Welcome to the second year of GURPSDay, and this is the first GURPSDay post of 2017. Let’s make this a great year. How? Two action items: post more, recruit more. It’s really that simple. Below you can find the blog activity from the last seven days. 47 so far as we start the year with…
Over at Ravens N’ Pennies, +Christopher R. Rice is thinking of doing some adventures. Now, a bit about Christopher: He’s ridiculously prolific. If you read his blog, you’ll find this out. If he says “I’ve got an idea for an adventure,” what he means is likely an epic series of awesome ideas. Trust me, the guy just…
Derek Knutsen-Frey and I chatted a lot about Dragon Heresy in a prior interview. It was a great chat. We also spent another hour (ish) talking about the business of game design.

This will be a very comprehensive…

I hope you have something to contribute, fellow blogger!

"How to flee like Sir Robin and not get eaten from behind" is your assignment, should you choose to accept it. If you have a blog, send me the link. If you don't, send me the post and I'll host it. 🙂
Nuke em from orbit, that's the only way to be sure. But if you lack a nuke then a flashbang may be just as good. Just don't let them win the initiative and don't let them survive the first round. But should they survive, make sure you have a load of lead flying their way so they don't dare raise their head from that hole the ducked it in to save their life and then quickly bring in the artillery on them.
That's pretty much my approach. A fair fight is what you say you had when you're in the bar afterwards.
