Jumping through Memory Space Lane I have gone through some old notes and found the basic plot summary of this campaign. I transcribed it and it appear in the Source Material. It was a plot I was really looking forward to completing and wished I had. Maybe one day.
Using the Horror rules in the Revised edition book, there are several things I integrated into DC T20 that I think works well with the setting. Sanity and Fear (True 20 Adventure Role-playing, Revised Edition, pg 224) Use Fear and Terror as is in the rule book. Every creature and beasty has a Fear/Terror Rating…

Many of my gaming friends have mentioned Hawk the Slayer as a movie I should see. I had heard of it but never sat down to watch it at length. It is now considered a cult classic. So I found a copy and decided to see what the big deal was about it.
Once again, I delve into a movie from the vast library of Roger Corman; another fantasy adventure staying Lana Clarkson (from Deathstalker) and a whole cast other women in various stages of undress. Master of low budget and reuse, Corman as producer reused much of the set from Deathstalker, and well as costumes I recognized from other of his fantasy outings.
Dates: 4/2/2014 to 4/16/2014 Where: Grail The Decados presence on Grail apparently got wind of what Halman was up too and was not pleased. Posing as Killroys, the raid his home and wait for the party to return. Instead of fight their way out, the party is able to negotiate and con their way out.
It’s pretty hard to find a bad movie I have not seen, unless it is a movie I have simply chosen not to watch. Eliminators turned out to be a movie I vaguely remember as a kid but never saw. There was something about that cyborg on his mobile unit that looked familiar to me. Starring some sci-fi greats like Denise Crosby (Star Trek: The Next Generation), Andrew Prine (Steven from V, the original mini-series), and Roy Dotrice (most recently from Game of Thrones), this movie had a lot of potential. It pulled in a ton of cool elements but never really explored them to their full potential. The acting was fairly poor as well, despite having such well known actors. This was obviously early in their career and they were still trying to find their feet. The name of the movie was an obvious attempt to cash in on Terminator, although it is a terrible name for it.
