Uhhhh... gaming The Flood...

"Alright, Noah, now roll against unfortunate events... oh, a natural one, that´s bad. Let´s see... the dragons ate the unicorns and died of constipation afterwards. Scratch two species."

That HAS it's uses, however.... convert it to steam and call it a troop transport, for example; or a vessel built to transport obelisks from Egypt to France or Britain; or....

Double ones! That means Noah falls down dead drunk and accidentally flashes his winkie!

Now roll 10D100 to see how long Noah lives.

"Greatest seafaring story of all time?" Hardly. Nowhere near as good as the Bismarck chase. There aren't even any explosions.

you could put satan on a Swordfish firing torpedos at the Ark! but a swordfish attacking the Ark (Royal) doesn't sound too good!

so give him an U-Boat!

and give Moses some depth carges!

Oh dear...

This reminds me of my evangelical christian collegue in the US who was certain there were archeological remains of the Arch of Noah on top of Mnt Ararat. I asked him what his evangelical archeologists friends had thought of sifting through that thick layer of sediment which comes from having a pair of all species there ever was onboard, shitting to their hearts' delight.

...and I guess this post is my ticket to hell. :-)

You got away easily.

There's a church in West Virginia that has, for thirty years now, been trying to "prove" the existence of a Noah's Ark by building one. Its skeletal hulk is visible as you drive out West on I-70.

I could see this being an excellent centerpiece to a pre-WW2 game, with archeologists, Kabbalists, and Gebirgsjaegers all fighting to get inside and investigate its secrets...

And I was trying to remember where the Ark appears in 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea.

It's a nice looking hull though.

I'm always wondering if these relgious weirdos you Americans got, are a blessing or a curse, when i read things like this. :

When you're making small talk with them, most of them are polite and friendly. Despite their bizarre and medieval positions, they usually have no experience with the kinds of things they rail against. They're systematically fleeced by their political and religious leaders into backing positions that are in their own worst interest. They live in areas where opportunities for work and education are limited. Religion is a comforting system that gives their lives some structure. They're just people in the end.

The really malignant extremists are a smaller minority than you'd think.

With the amount of flood water I've just driven through here, perhaps it's not such a bad idea :freak:

Oooh! Another example of you genius with narration. I might end up buying this kit after all, trademark rain bow on the box art or not.

It wouldn't be to hard to replicate with balsa really, unless you really want the interiors.,
