Player characters from an RPG?
I might not be a dralasite, vrusk or yazirian but I do play one in Star Frontiers!

If the PCs ever get tough enough to just mail in the missions I think a restart would be justified.
Sounds like a great job but where did you say we had to go?

LOL.

Clearly the guy that took on an army of 80 cowboys had 6th level skills in an arena of 1st level mooks. I could totally see Samuel L Jackson playing the role.

Buckshot Roberts was one bad azz son of a b#### but that author needs to realize this all took place as Billy was still getting his legs. LV-6 vs LV-1 mooks again...William probably made it to LV-2 after that encounter.

According to Ancestry.com James French (renamed as Hendry William French portrayed by Alan Ruck in the Young Guns sequel) is a distant relative from my mom's side of the family. Which probably explains where all my badazzery comes from. Wink
I'm not overly fond of Zeb's Guide...nor do I have any qualms stating why. Tongue out

Actually Robert Loggia already has.

Elfego Baca: Six Gun Law (1966)
Every one's favorite Mouseketter Annette Funicello is even in it, being a Disney movie and all.


I've never played a hero in an RPG. I tend to end up being villians. I then end up being a GM as my favorite character and most powerful one was more suited to being the top boss, so rather than give him up I made an army based around him.
In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same.

I notice that folks around here like to site Cracked.com for inspiration or whatever, but fair warning. Cracked.com has been infested by malware from three different third-party sites, turning the website into an attack site. They are trying to fix the problem, and hopefully they will rectify the problem quickly.

Disregard that last post. They fixed it the problem.
