Re: Memorable Quotes.
A PC in my SPace game decided the three crew man bridge I described A) had to be railway station sized because the ship itself was big. B) his improvised DR 30 layered armor could stop a 6d x15 (5) battle suit weapon and that his 1d laser could pierce the battlesuit so didn't need to swap out his laser for a force sword that theoretically cut past the armor's DR providing he noved a whole hex and swung at r=1.
Numbers crunched and so did he. A week later he spotted an unspent CP and actually asked if he could spend it and keep his character!

Re: Memorable Quotes.
(the party is being forced to disarm, and we have a cart in which we're putting weapons so one of us can guard them)
"Technically my brain is a lethal weapon, but I'm not putting that in the cart." "Do you know how useless I am without my bow? I can't take a puppy!" "That's OK. I can take all the puppies, ever." (the two female PCs have just given a theatre troupe a story of them to turn into a play) "As we leave, I slip the head guy some money and tell him the actress playing me has to be hotter than the actress playing her." |

Re: Memorable Quotes.
Yesterday, at our Task Force: Nemesis session, we had this little piece of conversation between the team's resident medic (and irish catholic priest) and gunner (and also a latino drug cartel hitman and cleaner):
"Diablo" Mendez: look, Father, since we have to wait for the rest of the team, I'll tell you: I respect you, but you won't stop me from drinking and smoking! Father Shaw: That's OK by me, but only if you swear to not touch mine. Later, attacking the house of a Triad leader, to retrieve the daughter of a CIA operative: "Diablo" Mendez: So you saying if I do not want to go back to jail and my 25-to-life sentence, I have to go into the house, and kill everybody in sight, except for this teen girl? Lieutenent Forbes: Yeah, that's the size of it. You got a problem with that? "Diablo" Mendez: No, lady, I just don't understand why you think you need to pay me for that, but that's OK.

Re: Memorable Quotes.
A collection from last night's game:
The team's ritual path mage cast a difficult healing spell and quirked it pretty bad, giving his patients cancerous scars: Joel: wait... seriously, Nick gave me cancer??? Mark: A mild case of skin cancer on your scars, yes. Joel: oh like sunburn? Kevin: Like the aftereffects of a sunburn that never goes away. Mark: No, like skin cancer that you need outpatient surgery to get rid of. Joel: O.O A bit later (Nick is Kevin's character and the team leader) Mark: Some of you may be newer to the team than others. Nick may be experimenting with who he wants to hire - or fire. Kevin: So far Nick is getting my vote for 'most fireable'. ...Just like management everywhere else. |

PC: "It's just a chihuahua."
GM (me): rolls 1d4. Die rolls, lands on its tip and balances there. I take it as a sign from the gaming gods, reach into dice bag and randomly grab...(rummage)...a d10. Which of course rolls a "10". Damn near takes the PC's foot off. |

Re: Memorable Quotes.
Had that happen to a fellow-player playing D&D. The consensus was "what number would you like?" with "the number the GM feels would be best for the party" as an option; it was a roll about the number of chances the pursuers we were trying to evade got to catch us. We'd read the GM's body language and nominated Andy to roll as he had a knack for extreme rolls.
