Anuvver fing - when they do sumfing, they try to make it look like somfink else to confuse everybody. When one of them wants to lord it over the uvvers, 'e says "I'm very speshul so'z you gotta worship me", or "I know summink wot you lot don't know, so yer better lissen good". Da funny fing is, arf of 'em believe it and da over arf don't, so 'e 'as to hit 'em all anyway or run fer it.

Not quite. They play their music on the Sirius satelite radio metal station a lot, I've shared emails with some of the DJs there and they always say they get lots of requests for them. They got a new album that they're working on now supposedly...

Wonder which GW book cover they'll use for their album cover this time...

I saw Gary Oldman at Games Day LA last year. According to the guys who worked there he is a collector/painter, but his kids play. He was buyin up Massive amounts of Death Korps of Krieg from what I could tell, I saw him 'inspecting' a titan as well (I think it was a warhound, maybe a reaper, though I don't think it was out then). I got a terrible picture with my phone, and you'd never know it was him without me telling you (and a little faith). He's one of my favorite actors of all time, so I was pretty pleased to see him there.

On a completely unrelated note, I saw Leonard Nimoy at "Bed Bath, and Beyond" once.

Gary Oldman is at the Glendale GW store a fair amount. He collects and paints dwarves.

4th edition is evil, because it's just like WoW.

According to /tg/.

/tg/ is correct.

I mean, in 4th edition you cannot be Lawful Evil or Chaotic Good anymore, that's how dumbed down it is.

I'm guessing your comment is sarcasm, but consider that a vast number of RPGs don't have alignments at all.

Working on someting you'll either love or hate. Hopefully to be revealed by November.

No, it isn't sarcasm at all. The Alignment system in D&D is a major part of what made D&D, D&D. Removing it is like digging up Gygax and Arneson and pissing on their corpses. The whole of 4th edition is like that basically.

And thats just 1 of many changes they made to dumb it down, but I'll not force this any more off topic than it already is.

Wait, didn't D&D originally have "Law" as good and "Chaos" as evil?

Or am I thinking of something else? (No, not Warhammer. )

Naw, having read all the D&D books (I have a first print run AD&D book from before I was even born) there has always been the 9 Alignment system where Law meant a Code of Honour or Strict rules, Chaos meant anarchy or free spirit, Good means Altruism and caring for others, and evil was selfishness etc.

Just because something is "lawful" doesn't mean they are good. You might be part of a Mafia. They would be classed as "Lawful Evil". They are evil, but they have rules, and codex. Likewise you can be Chaotic Good, you help others wherever you can, but don't do it out of a sense of duty, you do it because you feel like it.
