i never liked this show. But i caught the new episodes because some Farscape actors are in it now. I like it. It's nice to see an actor act angry. Too much...
... Ben Browder saved that show; although I notice the writing has picked up as well - notice Daniel's parts in the first handful of episodes. For gaming,...
I like Ben Browder here. Especially in his first episode where he goes off on the black alien guy. "Bullets bounce!" I don't get the reference to Daniel's...
... I don't think you can write a dull, boring scene for Ben Browder. It just doesn't work that way, the pen won't cooperate :-) ... Well, if it's got cultural...
Agreed on Browder. I'll have to pay more attention to Daniel's character, i really like good writing. The character still seems too smart for so many...

Greetings: "Check these out and tell me they wouldn't make kick-ass minis for a 3D version of Triplanetary..." Yep, I agree. I think that there are several in...

Greetings: Following up on my own post, bad form! Hmmm...an alternative to the FASA ST simulator might be a ST variant for Full Thrust. I've been looking at FT...
i hate the cascade die rolls. I hate the cascade damage results. I'm sure there's more. Best thing about full thrust is the GZGpedia of nations. Extremely...
Greetings: "i hate the cascade die rolls. I hate the cascade damage results." IIRC, Ad Astra's "Attack Vector: Tactical" has this feature. I thought it was a...

... I like Full Thrust a lot, too. Strong points (for my money) include 1) The "guess-and-go" written orders and simultaneous movement. The orders are short ...
