Well yes, it has been done before.  But how would it work within the magic system for the Dresden files, is what I'm asking.

I can just imagine, at some siege in the 14th century, where a wizard is standing next to a trebuchet and he mucks it up cause his personal concept of whats "new" doesn't include it.

But he's just fine with the older, more reliable catapult.

What I see is that it seems to be based on how the wizard regards technology. I suspect that if a wizard was your typical computer geek, then we'd see them having trouble with basically no electronics.

This brings up an interesting question...what about the concept of "technomages", or wizards whose main medium is technology...or, more specifically, the mass movement of electrons within a electronic device.

Would there be rules for that sort of thing?

Yeah, I was dumbfounded when I found out Jim was doing a Spiderman novel, who also just happens to be my favorite superhero.

Not only that, but it features my favorite Spidey-girl to boot! 

As of now, I'm waiting for my local bookstore to get in some more copies. 


Oh, and if it is a complex, slightly lucid dream, could you like, not wake up?  =P

Well, it wouldn't be too hard to make one, as I dabble in IRC occasionally.

Would there be any problem with me just making an "Official Jim Butcher IRC room" or something to that effect?

Really, I am in the camp of "No timeline", cause, at least in our group, we won't be playing the main characters, or probably even in Chicago.  More than likley, we're going to just play in the universe, which is still a great setting.  The White Council, Denarians, trolls and faeries and vampires and just...yeah.  Kind of like WOD only without the angst.

Site Suggestions & Support / RP Board?
« on: May 26, 2006, 11:58:13 PM »
Given the propensity for Butcher-ites to be roleplayers, I was curious if there were any plans for making an RP board? I was honestly a little surprised there wasn't one already. 

So...is it possible?

How about adding in stuff from other fandoms that are well received amongst the Butcher fans?  I know there alot of Browncoats among us, and just general fans of Joss Whedon.   

We could have a poll or something.

Darkest Hours / Canon?
« on: May 26, 2006, 08:19:44 PM »
Just a quick question about how this book falls into the Spidey canon.

Given the new direction the Friendly Neighborhood Spiderman book has taken the franchise, I was curious as to whether or not the novel will fall into the story's continiuty, and how it would. 

Anyways, it has Felicia, so I'm buying it no matter the case.
