We still play 1st ed rules; we've been playing since the box sets, and see no reason to change. And Gamma world, for the Tech stuff. (White Plume Mountain was first, iirc)
We have modified some things over the years as too powerful.:)
Our last gig had our Gang on my world's version of a space shuttle, when Vecna found them.
Someone made an incredible roll; and they instead of being; oh whatever Vecna would do to you for totally killing all his enemies, and destroying his skull citadel, with said peeps inside, they ended up in the Deity Witness Relocation Program, as Drow Elves, chained to a wall upside down. Naked.
They're in Strad's basement, just now.:)
At our age, we only play a game every few years, but they're good.:D
The real problem with Pu-238 is its source; the recovery of Pu-239 for weapons, from a Uranium fueled reactor.
You Can breed it in a high-neutron type reactor, but those are purpose built for research, and most research places won't let you breed something that has warhead-grade material as a side product.:)
I don't think there's anywhere in the EU that would admit to having those capabilities, let alone furnish material that proved it.:)
The US isn't making new material anymore, neither is Russia.
The Japanese was recycling Plutonium on some scale, before fukushima; maybe they could help.
There will have to be a Government Program to fund RTG generator research for Space; no-one else could do it.
Slashdot Mirror
It is running on a k6BV3+ mobo, with a k6-III-450 processor and 128MB of edo dram.
It has a Tennelec PCA3 ISA card in it, that is currently taking data. :)
I only use the shotgun for engine block breakage, r to pop a gas tank.
That takes slugs.
The other rounds are 00, to keep the riff raff in the car.
The HEI incendiary tracers light it up for effect. :)
But that's a completely different weapon.
... And apparently true.
No lolz on that one...
... that they never made any sequels to the Matrix.
Now that would have been weird.

Well said!
Wu doesn't even have that; She's a Man, baby!
wtf has /. become?
Neon Condoms, Neon fleshlights, Neon Dildos... all will be very popular, I'm sure. :)
If we pave the streets with it, how much power can we get?
Nuff said. :)
I'm just happy they never made sequels to The Matrix; I mean, how weird would that have been, right? :)
This is the real truth, and apparently Siemens is helping them do it.
Sad, really.
238, not 239. :)

I agree we had few choices there; but Obama's blackness wasn't why I voted for him. :)
Sarah Palin's votes were proportional to boob size, not intellect.
I have to admit: I Really thought he would be different.
WTF was I thinking, lol.
They're only in office because enough of us bought their BS.
Think we'll do better next time? :)
It seems we already are; with no reach-around...
He ran on the proviso that all the illegal BS we were doing would be shut down. (as well as the billion-dollar-a-day wars we were fighting...)
Instead, it's way beyond what was left to him by Bush.
Now he's Asking a Secret Court to allow the Government to Break a Lawful Ruling that basically Affirmed that the Program was Unconstitutional.
WTF?
Frank and Open laughter works for me, pretty much against those people.
Just be careful of them in groups; you might get burned at the stake.
Let me Tell YOU ABOUT MY MOTHER!!!!!!
(Sweeps the table clear, and ...) :)
So, is the NSA making it easier for Brandon to pay off his student loans?
Paid shill is pretty cheap these days...
At least Cold Ford got paid salary.
This Trial was in no way fair; Secret evidence, discovery denied for obvious things...
Referring to a series of Uncharged crimes during trial and sentencing is nowhere near Constitutional.
Although, this actually IS one of the things the NSA did with all that Intel; one person will get prison time.
And they proved Tor is not secure; arguments to the contrary are just not convincing anymore.
It's to keep Vampires like Rumsfeld and Cheney out of there, Duh! :)
FWIH, There are several analogs in Ft. Leavenworth that would do just as well.
In your own mind, lol.
This is the start; a simple mutation that allows it to spread unnoticed throughout the population...
"I totally got this eye infection, but it made my eyes this really rad color of green! Uh...Do you Smell Brains?!!" :)
Tits exist in at least Four Dimensions.
I've found that over time, they extend their vertical dimension in a much larger proportion than the loss to the original horizontal dimension...
Entropy causes Sagging, film at 11.
Base Camp on Mount Everest; not a bad place to kick off, all thing considered...
Hopefully there was a pitcher of Mai-Tais and some native girls. :)
