Recently started an online D&D with Siberius and his brother WoflyGreiss.

Also, my sons have gotten me seemingly addicted to Pokemon.  Been around since it's inception, but not until recently have I taken the plunge. 
Me and Wissenlander had babies!

not together.

finding photographic evidense that Wiss smiles is going to be hard...

The Pokémon addiction can be a series thing.

That's awesome, I hope you guys are having a blast! It's really cool that nowadays, not having people near you to RP with doesn't stop you from doing it anyway over the internet.

I started GM'ing Shadowrun again last year on an "at least once a month" basis, and it's going great so far. Tabeltop roleplaying is one of those hobbies I'll always love, and will always make room for.

Elaborate please..

Pokemon series / movies watching?

Pokemon video games playing?
a. On console?
b. On handheld (gameboy of old for example)
c. On phone (pokemon go)

Pokemon Trading Card game?

Pokemon merchandise collecting?

there are so many options when considering Pokemon :)

You should see the people from Pokeplay, the Belgian Pokemon association. They gather in our local on occasion.

Have one  on Midaski's tab.  :::cheers:::

It's been great so far.  It's been good for me because I don't have a lot of time and being able to jump online gives me a lot more of an opportunity than trying to meet up locally.

Elaborate please..

TCG.

I will be seeing Detective Pickachu when that comes out next month.

The last time I role played it was on line here at W-E.  It was set in an animal world, and I was so disappointed that it abruptly ended.  I could see myself participating again at some point.

I haven't table top role played in years and years, think not since I was in college.  I've got nephews that have taken it up, and are having fun, and I've considered jumping back in with some GMing for them, yet we'll see.

Your pic puts me in mind of the pic I took with my phone on Monday this week of my own two boys ready to sleep in their hotel room beds!
Photobucket has now re-destroyed my pictures, so the first half of my collected works thread is no longer working again. To see my website version of the campaign thread, with fully functioning pictures, please go to https://bigsmallworlds.com/

My wife is taking a well deserved and earned 12 day vacay in Germany/France.  So its just me and my boys (9 and 11) for a VERY masculine living experience while she's away.

To start off the eldest suggested playing Kill Team until late Friday.  The youngest decreed Saturday is "No pants day" all day in the house.

Gonna be a riot.

The other day at my workplace; as there were no women in my work area, the deputy supervisor said something along the lines of 'Ok, lads; there are no girls here today so you can take your pants off if you get too hot"

Scored the following at a charity shop
199x set of citadel colour paints
199x Box of wood elf archers
199x box of High elf spearmen and archers
5th edition starter set.
The only thing missing from the whole lot were a couple of elves and the space marine from the starter set

It is not enough to have no ideas of your own; you must also be incapable of expressing them.

^ According to Ciaphus Cain; sisters of battle are not celibate. They just find it hard to pursue relationships due to their work schedules. That and the fact they are a mob of emperor bothering fanatics probably also makes it difficult to get along with them

GW has come out and said the same. You're more likely to date the nurse/doctor equivalent than a battle sister due to combat casualties. I think they're called hospitallars? Yeah, most people think they are celibate for some reason. I read that Cain passage too, forget which book it was in. I equate it to dating the fundamental christian girls I've met in college and are often spoofed in movies and tv shows.
