Malicious code was found on the site, which has been removed, but would have been able to access files and the database, revealing email addresses, posts, and encoded passwords (which would need to be decoded). However, there is no direct evidence that any such activity occurred. REGARDLESS, BE SURE TO CHANGE YOUR PASSWORDS. And as is good practice, remember to never use the same password on more than one site. While performing housekeeping, we also decided to upgrade the forums.
This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Quote from: cnath.rmSounds really cool, makes me wish that licensing the Highlander IP wouldn't cost 5-6 arms and half a dozen legs.  How is True20 as far as the detailed sword fights with all the flurishes the movies/tv show have?

It's does the job really nice. There are many combat options for characters, some of them deadly. For example, you can Take Aim for one round, and use Finesse in the next one, for a really nasty blow (Finesse in True 20 means bypassing the other guy's armour if you hit).


QuoteDid any of you read the fan made Highlander: The Gathering pdf's putting immortals in the world of darkness?

Sounds great, I might actually have to check it out. :)

If you feel like checking it out, there are some nicely done bits, they adapted
the materiel to the WoD without killing the highlander flavor, imho at least.
Not perfect by any means, I didn't like that they kept the movies "immortals
don't drown) bit as I much prefered the series take on this.

Take care Nothingland. You were always one of the most ridiculously good-looking sites on the internets, and the web too. I\'ll miss you.  -"Derek Zoolander MD" at a site long gone.

In our game, immortals do drown. One of my characters spent a few years under the Mediterranean, until the tides left his body in Sicily's coast.

I much prefer it that way, the SS officer in the tv series who was tossed in the river wrapped in chains comes to mind. (and if I was the DM, I would be asking for Will saves to avoid/get over a fear of water after that kind of thing. :D Depending on the situation, but I'd consider it at least.)
