    I read that as, "armed with butt blades". I am a sad person. #ddsurface

    Meh. Doesn't make the gameplay any more compelling.

    This, [arstechnica.com] interested me far more. #ddsurface

    Is there any way to make a Dungeons & Dragons gazebo? #ddsurface

    @OMG! Ponies!: I attack the gazebo.

    _ Sorry, running joke with my D&D group. It went something like

    DM: k...There are a lot of nice places to sit under lots of nice trees around the marketplace. There's a pretty garden and everything. With a gazebo!
    Player 1: neat!
    Player 2: I want to attack the gazebo. #ddsurface

    @Ajh: It's an old joke that's been around for decades. "The attack-happy guy who doesn't know what a gazebo is."

    "There is a clearing. In the clearing stands a gazebo"

    "I shoot an arrow at the gazebo."

    "The arrow hits the gazebo. The gazebo is still standing."

    "Is it hurt?"

    "No. The gazebo takes no damage."

    "I shoot another arrow at the gazebo."

    "The arrow hits. The gazebo takes no damage."

    "What is it doing?"

    "It's just standing there in the clearing."

    "What kind of armor is the gazebo wearing? Is it wearing armor?"

    "No. The gazebo is not wearing armor. It has no weapons. The gazebo is just standing there - with two arrows sticking into it."

    "I cast Magic Missile at the gazebo."

    "Magic missile hits the gazebo. It takes no damage." #ddsurface

    Where's the lightsabers? This is going to be a pretty one-sided training session...

    The last thing I want to have to do on a space station is make a saving throw:


    You try to close the airlock. Make a saving throw against your agility:


    1 Botched Throw: Your bag of chips explodes and, while you float around, munching, you crash into the ant farm. You destroy years of research into ants' ability to sort tiny screws in a weightless environment.


    Failed Throw: James Taylor forces you to listen to his easy listening adult contemporary music, including all of his hits from the Seventies


    Successful Throw: You close the airlock door, saving the supply of Tang from being sucked into the cold pitiless vacuum of space.


    19-20 Critical Hit: You find an inanimate carbon rod and wedge it in the door handle. When you get back to Earth, they throw a parade in honor of a true American hero -


    The Inanimate Carbon Rod

    How exactly do they move around? Doesn't seem like they're big enough to hold allot of fuel.
