Batman

We saw Batman v Superman today.  I really enjoyed it as did my boys.  The references and similarities to The Dark Knight Returns made me enjoy it even more.  Oh, and spoiler, I really enjoyed seeing Batman kick Superman's ass.

Expendables

I had to chuckle.  I've been reading the Five Year Mission supplement for White Star.  This book allows the GM to modify their campaign to emulate Star Trek.  One of the new classes included is Expendables.  Oh, those poor, poor red shirts.  The thing that made me laugh is that one of the class abilities is Noble Sacrifice.  If the expendable is within full  movement distance from a character they can throw themselves in front of that character and absorb any damage dealt.  But the Expendable takes double damage.  Fortunately, the player controls multiple Expendables and has a large supply in reserve.

Long Live the Expendable!  Oops.  Long Live the Next Expendable!
