An Urge

[dukewhite]

For the longest time I have wanted to play D&D. Not like the fake computerized D&D, nor any other video game RPG, but a real RPG with geeks a plenty sitting in a circle rolling various sided dice. Alas, I have no books, I have no dice, and I have no geeky friends who will admit to be being as geeky as I am to play with me

it takes forever! omg! you have to roll the dice to find out whether you sneezed on someone effectively! worst combat system ever! bleh.

and that's what i have to say about that.

[dukewhite]

what would you have me play instead?

[sinsofthedove]

strategy games! settlers! ticket to ride! trans europa! wheeeeee!

I play Sudoku, does that count? It's a logic puzzle...

Alright Mark, I thought it over. Buy me a plane ticket and I'll be just as geeky as you want.
Hell, Ill even settle for a bus ticket.

It's a stretch for me to shell out the $25 for the basic game to play, much less transportation halfway across the country. Maybe there's a way to have a non-online game long distance? I dunno, though.

dude, omg, i havent played D&D in 8 years and i miss it long time. if you get a group together lemme know, so i can crash the geeky party.

[dukewhite]

You needn't crash, you're on the guest-list! I don't know if I can find enough people to have a full party, so if you know any other closet D&D fans, let me know. We can invite them too.

Just while talking about board games...

Do you know a game which is called "settlers" or something like that? 3-6 players build up settlements on an island made up of hexagon-shaped cards, each card indicating a kind of resource which the player who settles on a corner of that card is allowed to harvest. It is all about trading and stuff.
