"Most citizens are too complacent to question how it is that their lifestyle is maintained." This is one of the most cutting bits of satire Siembieda ever wrote. It's a shame that they leaned more into the Coalition viewpoint as "not unreasonable" as time went on. Yeah, they're worse than the Nazis, but can you blame them? Yes, yes I can.
I'm glad that the Savage Worlds version seems to be running with the idea that somebody in that world would eventually wake up and say "okay, for real though: these guys aren't the solution, they're the problem" and actually start working on overthrowing them.
Originally shared by Andrew “Incomitatum” Chason Hit Me with your Horror I am looking for some horror flicks. The newer the better. Good is good too. I liked House of 1000 Corpses and Devil's Rejects . I liked both the new Texas Chainsaw movies. Hills Have Eyes 1 was good (never saw the second . Jeepers Creepers 1 & 2 come to mind as well. A little camp, and/or "back woods" can't hurt. Any of you have any recommendations? Lets try and not go too far back than mid 90's. Aside: How was the new "Freddy" movie? Suggested So Far • Bones (2001) • Drag Me to Hell (2009) • The Grudge (2004) • Don't Be Afraid of the Dark (2010) • Dog Soldiers (2002) • The Decent (2005) • Creature (2011) • The Last Winter (2006)
Mike Ness auto-awesomed What a weird show. Huge mosh pit full of dude-bros and middle aged dudes (and some badass chick with hemp purse that she never lost) stomping around like the freakin' Bushwackers from the WWF. Met a middle-aged english couple who used to be in the music distributor business who had been at a bunch of the same shows as we had over the last few years.

Is the Tomorrow Legion a new thing, or established in some book I haven't read, like those Coalition War books?
ReplyDeleteCasey G. It's a new thing created by Fannon in response to what went down in those Coalition War books (which I've only read a summary of).
