Kilted Gaming

[wildrover]

I always wanted to do the hand-painted miniatures. Maybe I should drop in to a gaming store...it'd be pretty cool to have a hand-painted chess set of those things.

There's a scene in the film "Ronin"...ok, one of many scenes I really liked, where De Niro's character is taken to an old friend's chateau to fix a wound...the scene opens to show his friend (played by Michael Lonsdale) painting a miniature of a samurai warrior. The full scene is played out a few minutes later...

It begins @4:45...

I agree with Chris, wearing a kilt oughtta be good for a bonus .

Yeah, we're different. But it's cool.

Indeed! While I MMORG, I have heard of DnD. However, everything I know comes from listening to a DM at work talk about the game and reading OOTS and Erfworld. Which reminds me, I better go get caught up.

We're playing Hero System as well. It wasn't until we were leaving after the game that the kilt was even acknowledged. One of the players said "It isn't often you see a guy in a kilt." I replied that I like the way it looks and it's really comfortable. Several of the guys thought that the comfort aspect made a lot of sense. All in all, it went well.

I was wearing my Matt Newsome box pleat kilt in Elliot Ancient with a redish-orange t-shirt (matched the red stripe in the kilt) and oatmeal hose (no flashes. I think I'll most likely end up wearing my other kilt for the next gaming session.
