Where did it all go wrong, Casey? I can’t pinpoint it, but it was already too late when they remade 3:10 to Yuma and took a movie that was mostly two men talking about morality in a hotel room and put in a Gatling gun.
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.
"Romance" and murderhobo... does not compute
ReplyDeleteI believe Capt. Reid was going for the "quality or feeling of mystery, excitement, and remoteness from everyday life," definition.
ReplyDeleteThough now, so help me, I'm thinking I might like to see murderhobo romance in the modern sense.

ReplyDeleteYour characters don't get that tingle after a particularly easy treasure find, or a solid one-sided slaughter? I figured it was called XP...
Is this the real world account that Blood Meridian was based on?
ReplyDeleteI'm gonna say no, Gregor.
ReplyDeleteGregor Vuga Captain Reid wasn't a captain and wrote mostly adventure fiction.
ReplyDeleteThe events you're looking for are the Glanton party. The book, Samuel Chamberlain's My Confession.
