So which marvel hero faction do I join?


Your Score: X-Men


64% organization, 74% responsibility




You're an X-Man! You fight for acceptance and equality (and to save the universe from the occasional Dark Phoenix Crisis...). You have a deep respect for diversity and human rights, but won't hesitate to step in and stop the world from blowing up. Of course all your battles aren't just fought in your Nemesis's lair, but in the classroom teaching future generations, and on the steps of Washington pushing Mutant rights. Your struggle for the greater good seems endless, but you know it has to start somewhere. Famous Members include: Cyclops, Jean Grey, Wolverine, Storm, and Rogue.

FA of a Cup

Well a disappointing FA Cup final this year with the winner decided by a goal against the run of play, even though neither side looked all that much like scoring for most of the game. I think really a result for Chelsea's defence rather than anything else and it will help Mourinho avoid a blank season after the Premiership and Champions League failures.

Comparing Fantasy Games rules

Well I've decided to make a project out of comparing three or four currently available fantasy role playing rule sets that I know well. These are D&D 3.5, Castles & Crusades, and Warhammer FRP. Though I am tempted to include Conan RPG as an alternative to the D&D tropes using the D20 ruleset.

I'll take step by step through comparison of character generation, advancement, combat and magic. Setting isn't really something that I can compare as only Warhammer and Conan have a default setting assumed, though it can be argued that all D&D is based around the Greyhawk world.

Back to life or at least blogging

I've just realised that my total blogging activity for this month in terms of completed posts is a mere one. Wanting to improve on this I thought that I'd look to see why I've not blogged. Its been a mixture of reasons including limited access to IT for blogging as my laptop was damaged and I had to wait for a replacement. Lack of time largely due to personal commitments and involvement in three active play by post roleplaying games. Now I'll make good this deficit over the next few weeks and complete some of my many unfinished posts.
