| | Yeah, I think so. They are sort of like James Bond, only more historically accurate, set in 1812, and in the British Army. He seems to get hurt an awful lot, but always recovers. He usually gets the girl, too, but she is usually working for the other side....   I've enjoyed the books. |

You're not talking about Conan anymore, are you? 
Ok, seriously... I've never watched Sharpe myself, but I hear it's pretty good... Off the top of my head, there's a Sean Bean film called When Saturday Comes which is about football, so I'd guess he doesn't die in that...  Anyway, I guess dying at the end is what you get for playing bad guys all the time
Re. Bond, IMO Pierce Brosnan is a great Bond, best since Connery... it's just a pity that the movies haven't really been up to scratch Gabriel Byrne would have been a good Bond, he has that hard Celtic edge that Connery and Brosnan have.
@McBane Two Arnie sequels for the price of one? Bargain!

| I have visions of this thread reaching 2000 posts with a cult following of 10,000 views.

| I'm not certain I can dignify that comment with a response as I'm not currently aware of any other cult in existence.
You are all the children of Daggoth!
side note HLD: I directed my father to the banshee to read this conan thread. He got a kick out of it, what with all this daggoth nonsense. He was amazed I found something like this and then I had to admit my contributions.

Somehow, i don't think your the only one.
But one question.
IN Conan III , is Arnie going to still have his "old" party with him?
I mean, Malek, Akiro, Zula or something?
What an old bunch.

| Those are just sects of the one true cult of daggoth.

| | | So the Cult of Daggoth is a giant pyramid scheme? I don't know that I want to join a cult if it involves selling something.

| | Every cult is selling something. Amway chooses to sell shoes and desk lamps. some cults sell sexual freedom, others are selling a mainline to your inner self. It's the beauty of the cult of daggoth that no matter what it is your looking for, daggoth has it to offer. You need only look in the right place. If your faith is true, daggoth will show the way. Who do you think Game Banshee is really working for???

| | | I thought GB was a front for fable and Aegis to scout out the Earth for conquest by aliens from the planet Tralfamador.

| | | Funny you should mention that, Vonnegut is a high priest of Daggoth.
btw HLD,
I like your sig. Where did you get it. It remind me of the insignia from Nintendo 64's Rogue Squadron.

| | | It's actually a quote I ripped off from a guy on another message board. When AD&D 2nd Ed came out, I quit playing it because the skill system sucks. So some friends and I started playing the Robotech RPG, then Rifts, Heroes Unlimited and everthing else in the Palladium system. The other players used to tease me because my characters always carried four or five extra plasma cannons around (enough firepower to arm a small South American junta), but when things got ugly, I was usually the one to bail the party out.
My avatar is the Rebellion/New Republic emblem from Star Wars (which would explain your Rogue Squadron association).
