I would love to be a part of that campaign, especially if that was the only unusual part.

"Hmm, let me check my inventory...ah, yes, the Stinger missile launcher!"

"Wait, what?"

You could very easily do something like that with HERO System or FUDGE.

Last time I played HERO System our party included both a literal fallen angel and a small walking tank driven by an AI among the player characters.

Or do some kind of Apocalypse World/Dungeon World hybrid.

I'll have to try it. Any suggestions?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 week ago

Play with friends. Don't get attached to any of your pals. They're chattel and should be treated as such. Good game.

The world (looking at the huge variety of guns with thousands of models that were made before the US even was a thing): Yes, American magic...

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Yes we all know when someone makes s joke about the excess use of guns we all know that are really taking about the Chinese and their rabid gun use.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 week ago

Gun rabies is no joke. Make sure to have your firearm vaccinated!

I'll have you know guns are as American as apple pie!

Edit: Accidentally wrote "Apple pie" rather than "apple pie." Don't want to give them any ideas. I don't need food that only works with Apple appliances.

Sounds very American to just take over a whole concept and make their own 🤦

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (2 children)

Yes, America invented co-opting things.

Side note: I found this alongside similar images that seemed less intentionally ironic.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Looks like an image that could go on to the hood of a pickup truck that surely also is an American thing 😂🤯

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I would be entirely unsurprised if I saw this on an F150 tailgate on the highway.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

That's close, but it really belongs painted on the side of a '70s panel van instead of a wizard with a unicorn, with shag carpet, a crushed velvet bed with the frame made of ammo boxes, and bead curtains made of bullets, and living in that van is a slightly more stoned Nicholas Cage from Lord of War who smells like pachouli and expended gun powder.

these are so fucking stupid and I love them

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

Me too. At a certain point, they become so absurd that they're funny rather than irritating.

According to my phone typing thingy half of all words belong to a corporation.

And the apples are pine-apple fragmentation grenades. Just like grandma used to make

Yeah, grandma was something else:

I mean, I guess if you want substandard crappy guns like Beretta, Heckler & Koch, Benelli, Browning Arms Company (yes, Browning), SIG Sauer, Springfield Armory, Chiappa, FN Herstal and more. And don't forget our Filipino friends at Rock Island Armory!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Springfield Armory, Browning Arms Company

Aren't they from the US?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

Browning is now owned by FN Herstal, though the Browning business unit is still headquartered in the US.

Springfield is privately owned by an American family.

Is that really a thing in Terraria?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Everything is a thing in Terraria now! It’s insane.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I'll have to revisit it. It's been a few years. What do I need to know?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

If you get stuck on a boss the wiki can help. Otherwise have fun. And don't kill the cultist unless you're prepared

I just saw that you can now cast dragons breath in 9mm.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Whoa. I thought that was shells only. That's almost a reversal of the comic. You ran out of bullets and started firing spells from the gun.

Holy hand grenade of Antioch.

Indeed, just make sure you know how long the fuse delay is tho

SECOND BROTHER: And the Lord spake, saying, "First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin. Then, shalt thou count to three. No more. No less. Three shalt be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shalt be three. Four shalt thou not count, nor either count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in My sight, shall snuff it."

MAYNARD: Amen.

KNIGHTS: Amen.

ARTHUR: Right! One... two... five!

GALAHAD: Three, sir!

ARTHUR: Three!

What if they put a nuclear reaction to shoot the bullet. Is that how we get star wars guns?

derp intensifies

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

I'm no nucular signtist, but I'd be a little reluctant to trigger a reaction of that kind anywhere near my hand.
