The GZG ECC XIII Quote Board ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ FRIDAY EVENING ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Great strategist, lousy dice roller. A: "The Millenium Falcon cockpit wasn't that small - they fit a wookie in it!" B: "He had the seat all the way back!" GM: "Do you want to be greedy and ruthless, or British?" Carl: "There's a difference?" Lerchey: "Crap, I forgot my tape measure." Mark: "Where's the space for differently-abled pirates?" Don L to Zombie Player: "Have you no heart?.... Oh." Whenever I think I'm French, I feel like I have to run away. GM: "Would you like to bayonet him?" Don L: "As opposed to standing there and being stabbed? Yes!" John L: "We're losing by less in each passing turn!" Greg: 19 KIAs, 3 Enemy Dead Jerry Han: "You can fire a torpedo up my butt!" John Lerchey: "That's an offer I don't get everyday..." Doug Schavo: "You're just not in the right part of town." Would the shark eat the zombie in the water, or is that just empty calories? I figure two more turns of firing, and I'll be out of ships. A: "Do you have shields?" B: "Yes, I haven't thresholded yet." A: "P-Torps - 4 points" B: "Okay, now I have thresholds." GM: "Do NOT roll a 1" Martin: "And you know how good I am at that..." Stuart: "Is it CineMAtic, or cinematic?" (People are flying Klingon ships...) Stuart: "He's plotting a turn ahead!" Jon D: "You have ridges on your forehead." Stuart: "I'm the jolly Klingon" (Doug is playing in Jon D.'s scenario...) Brian Phillips: "Where did you get the minis?" Doug Schavo: "I, ah, found them on the table." Steve Belosi (after rolling 7 points of damage on 3 dice): "That was an uncommon event for me." Jerry Han: "I'm not in charge!" John Lerchey: "Yes you are." Jerry Han: "NOOOOOOOO!" John Lerchey: "Every day is a good day to die if you're a Federation ship!" Jerry Han: "We're doing 10 to the Groin!" Jerry Han: "I don't think we can win by points" John Lerchey: "We can't even SURVIVE." Indy: "You take 5 points of damage." John L: "I take 2 and give 3 back." John L: "Yerin, you're a hot rock." ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ SATURDAY MORNING ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Jon-Mark: "She's a Mac, He's a Commodore 64." (Refering to the awake status of Yerin and John L. this morning) John L. to Aaron N.: "Send me an email, and I'll make you a brain. Do you want brain stem and nerves hanging down?" Aaron N: "I have exceptionally motivated sucky guys." Carl S. (showing die around): "Can someone confirm on here that there's something bigger than a 2?" Steve Barosi: "So you suggest I move around and plink him in the butt?" Carl: "I'm using NSL ships, entering an asteroid field, using vector movement. I STARTED INSANE." Yerin: "I need longer arms." John L. "Or, you could move to the other side of the table." Yerin (playing with a starship miniature): "Niiiiyearrrow! Niiiiyearrow!" Mark: "You're making airplane noises." Jon D: "Conservation of momentum + vector mathematics says he's stationary." (Commenting on a car blown into a million pieces by a gas tank explosion) Jon Davis, being asked about a favourable ruling for Greg Davis, who is curerntly on a team called "The Jerks": "If I do this now, he's only a jerk for the morning. If I don't, he's a jerk all day." You got to shoot. It was a good turn for you. (Team named "The French" moves a car backwards) Opponent: "Ah ha! Moving backwards! How very French!" Brian P: "Naw, Jeff, you were right to shoot at me that 1st turn. I'm up to no good." Tomb: "It's my engine. It gets me off here" He's a flaming Frenchman! (Rocket fired at car owned by team "The French") A: "Who did it miss?" B: "The French" A: "Who misses the French?" ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ SATURDAY AFTERNOON ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ JL WWII Zombie Game: "I'm just looking for the options, not the smart options." Jon Davis (discussing being the mayor of Zombie Town): "I'm bloated with government waste" Tom (during Bank Robbery): "455 Webley - Most powerful handgun in the world!" Later on: "Hold it sister! You, too, Frenchie!" (Americans have zombies to one side and an interdimensional demon on the other.) Brit: "You've got a problem with zombies." American: "I don't think you need to give me any advice about zombies!" Brit: "I'm in bad shape. I'm in the cemetary in a zombie game." Tomb: "If you steal my car, I WILL cut you down." Conserve unit strength. Don't fight Cthulhu. Jon Mark Davis to Jon Davis: "So, you were the village people?" Tomb: "Give me your boss, and you can go!" Rich: "We had a fighter out last turn, and they had none." Mike: "Ahh, the good old days." D: "If they wanted prostitues on a starship..." M: "Well, why wouldn't they?" STEVE BAROSI!!

I can confirm there is movement... could be a squirrel. Jon D: "I've crawled up into some cover and am putting [the Jaffa] on overwatch." Dan: "Are we gonna kill them or what?" GM: "Something came down the shaft." JP: "Is it naked?" Don: "Well, it's de-fleshed..." Ron: "You go forward, I will protect the rear." Tomb: "It doesn't matter how many sides are on the die, if you roll 1's..." (Mark proceeds to roll 3 ones in four rolls.) Jon D (having an emotional breakdown in character, including Russian accent, as he encounters a Gou'ld force shield for the first time): "What the F**K was that?!? Russian bullet KILL on TWELVE! BLOW HEAD OFF!". Tomb, as Jaffa is shot by DHD: "Wait, it's cinematic - on a high roll, he falls onto the device... 4! He's on the device!" Doug: "Hey, I've been using vector!" Tomb: "... that wasn't in the plan for today..." Tomb: "What'd you get?" Jon D: "7 and 4" Tomb: "What about the other one?" Jon D: "...1" Tomb: "Oh, good." ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ SUNDAY MORNING ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ John L: "Mechanical death machines with bad dice rolls just aren't worth building." I guess they're converted dishwashers. I always wanted to melee converted dishwashers. Imperial Player, looking miserable: "Shut UP, rebel scum!!" Rebel Player: "Let me guess, we got the Imperial Coffee shipment last episode..." Indy: "Good morning. Find a chair." John L: "Do I need a chair?" Aaron N: "It's Sunday morning, most of us do." Aaron N. (Captaining a WW2 Battleship): "Why does this not fly like a Starfury?" (Jon Mark Davis and Greg Davis are crusing in squadron formation) John L: "I'll bet you can sink one of Greg's ships" Jon Mark: "You bet, eh?" John L: "If you do, I'll give you one of mine!" (WW2 Battleship combat in the Indian Ocean) Jerry H.: "How fast are you going?" Bryan: "9" John L: "His rowers are going to get tired soon." Aaron N. (refering to Jerry H): "No, unless he does something stupid, I'm not attacking him." Jerry H: "Uhhh..." Aaron: "Oh, wait." Indy: "Scott, they love you down there." Scott: "I, I am well loved." Aaron: "He's pretty much the Jerry Han of that corner of the table." (After Scott's first battleship is sunk) Scott: "Here, you can have this back. I am done playing with it." Bryan: "Are you going to shoot at the Jean Bart, or the..." Aaron: "I'm going to shoot at the one less on fire." Bryan: "Can I re-roll my 6's in damage control?" John L: "Oh sweet! Cascading damage control!" Jerry Han: "SINK! SINK, DAMN YOU, SINK!!" Aaron: "And the recipient of the next broadside is... STEVE BAROSI!" The French are out of range. I'll shoot the Americans. It's not personal, it's just playtesting. Imperial Player to Teammates: "Can't you do ANYTHING? I roll 4 dice, and I kill a Mon Cal Cruiser!" (Mon Cal was down to 2 hull points) GM: "The Italians are getting ready to jump the Americans." American Player: "You do that." Bryan (playing French Fleet): "I'm trying to piss everybody else off." John L.: "You've embraced what it is to be French." The French are sunk! Everybody wins! You took Indy's advice? What type of brain damage caused that?
