While there, they discovered that the religion is preparing to fight some kind of “giant threat from space” and, as part of that effort, they've built a massive spaceship. “I've seen the plans,” Firestar says. “It's supposed to be powered by the spirits of the acolytes. By their belief.” In other words, it's a Thetan-powered spacecraft.

    There are four characters on that cover wearing the absolute ugliest costumes they've ever had.

    That's Vance Astrovik, known at the time as "Justice," and as "Vance Astro," a founding member of the Guardians of the Galaxy.

    I think that costume is okay.

This is my gaming circle minus my ACKS players. I am such an asshole. Since they're in the big city now, the players really wanted to know if there were any magic weapons for sale. ACKS ain't 3e or 4e though. There is exactly one magic weapon for sale. I rolled randomly to see what it was and... ...it's a cursed -2 sword. So I told the players there's a weapons dealer/fence who's looking to get rid of a magic sword he's gotten ahold of...cheap. Only 6,000gp when usually a +1 item would be 10,000gp. So far they are not suspicious. They're going to be so pissed at me. I can barely contain my excitement.
