If I won I would give it to my husband how is a avid gamer. Gaming is a passion of his from running campaigns with friends and family to playing more seriously on-line with internet friends. My husband can get really creative but it never hurts to have some help.

d20 Modern would work a little better – same dice and more relevant combat scenarios for their war-planning, but Dave isn’t offering D20 Modern so Wudawudawutwalo and family will take what is available.

They’ll just have to tap deeper into their characters’ roles and learn to associate Magic Missle with an AK-47…. it worked for Bethesda, didn’t it?

Though…. Tonester does have a touching entry as well. However, I’m thinking that Wudawudawutwalo and his siblings would be better served by an RPG like shadowrun or d20 Modern.

On top of that, the school is looking at doing a modified schedule for the five school days right before the juniors do their federally-required testing, leaving the frosh, sophomores, and seniors with a 2-hour block where they have to be at school but in a non-cognitive (read: fun) mini-elective. I’ve got two possibilities in the hopper, and one of them would be called “Games Unplugged.” Although I’ll have some board & card games available, I’d want to run a group through Shadowfell, or as much of it as we could get in that time (hopefully spilling into after-school play for the rest of the year). I actually started to pull together some pregens of my own based on the sketches described in the 4e Player’s Handbook while I was on hall duty yesterday so that I could be ready to go.

In that case, I’d give it to a young boy name Wudawudawutwalo that my wife and I started sponsoring a couple of years ago. His parents were killed by some neighboring tribal warlords when they invaded his village. He is the eldest of 3 other brothers and so it is his responsibility to take care of them to the best of his ability.

The problem is that he was only 11 at the time and lost both of his thumbs in the attack. To complicate matters, one of his siblings has AIDS, another has cancer, and the third was born with a rare medical condition where he can only bend 1 leg and the muscles in his face are uncontrollable. If you haven’t figured it out already, this particular brother tends to walk in circles all day long while drooling on himself and appearing as if he is practicing in the mirror for the most complicated movie role ever… all the other kids make fun of him constantly – its horrible.

I would send this awesome prize to Wudawudawatwalo. They could use it (esepcially the minis) to hone their strategic combat skills and begin the planning for their revenge attack on the evil warlords who attacked their village a couple of years ago. The $20 and bag of rice that my wife and I send each month only goes so far – this gift along with a set of mosquito nets would really put them over the top…. not to mention the fact that the dice could be used as slingshot ammo in the off-chance they are surrounded by rabid goats again with no rocks around (this happened to Wudawuda just last week… it was horrible).

Thanks in advance.
