I am shocked that you did no know about this Les...so many “been there seen that” moments in that comic.

Long Live Leg-o-lass! ;P

Sorry I never mentioned it.  Great comic, too bad it’s over now.  I heard about it on the podcast Fear the Boot, which I highly recommend to all my geek rpg playing brethren out there also.

That was the funniest thing I’ve ever seen.

Laughed my ass off and couldn’t stop reading.  Thanks.

g’day,

just thought I’d say hello coz my name is Les too

Love the name of your blog LOL

Bugger, I’ve been pope less than a year and already schism.  One of you is going to have to move to Amiens, because it’s traditional.

Order of the Stick is Awesome.  Goblins is another great one:  http://goblinscomic.com/

Thanks Les, I havnt laughed that hard in a very long time, glad I work alone in remote locations, reading that while in a cube farm would have lead to unemployment I’m sure.

Almost ruptured myself trying to suppress my laughter so as not to wake everyone in the house.

Games like this- especially the arguments over the rules (in the strip and in the comments) are the reason I moved away from D and D- I didn’t realise how complicated it had got. If I do it I use 1st edition (with the nice late 80s covers).  However if I ignore a rule set the set I prefer to ignore is FUDGE- available free on the net. I only use rules as a guide- and am quite happy for players to make up characters to fit a background- in my RQ campaign I allowed one player some ridiculously high ride stat because he was an exiled steppe nomad prince.

Shamus has a new comic up now called Chainmail Bikini by the way.  It’s only got two episodes so far, and it’s a more traditional comic (actually drawn!), but it looks to be of a similar vein and DM of the Rings.
