Troll Lord Games

The wife was finally able to join our C&C group, after the first couple games I asked her how she liked the game. She said the game was ok, but she had a problem with our dining room, The walls were in need of a fresh coat of paint. She would be unable to enjoy the game until the room was painted. So this weekend I am in the process of painting the dining room.

I guess I am lucky that my wife wants to play C@C and all I need to do to have her enjoy the game is to paint the dining room.

I wonder what I need to do to have her enjoy ASLSK#1

Looks to me like your wife rolled a "20" on her charisma check.

Play the; Reservoir Dogs soundtrack while painting. Shows your serious. It would also help if you painted the whole room with a serious face and serious brush strokes. (Rollers are for sissy's)

Then when you are finished the painting, before you shower, sit down with your manly smell and splattered smock then demand to watch; The Devil Wears Prada movie. (Also works works on mother-in-laws and Mormons. Mormons will even help you paint.)

Can't go wrong with this manly tactic to get any significant other to want to play C&C. It's like a counter attack, out-flanking your opponent. (Being your wife.)

Works for me every time!

Do you really think you could seduce me into a game of C&C by playing a Glen Close movie? Or was it Meryl Streep? Neither, sez I, and fie upon such a thought!

Lauren Bacall or Loreen Tuttlel however....

As for helping you paint, I confess to being a roller-using sissy. Even when I painted miniatures.


PS: I can use my chair or my walker when painting, yes?

As suggested by Sir Ironsides...A nice little song to get you in that painting mood

Of course I have to ask...what color did you choose to paint the dining room? That way we know what to call you from now on...

In over 20 years of ASL play, I've seen one female player. That was about 1999, at Winter Offensive. I think you'll have better luck convincing her to let you buy a Corvette.

Using my remarkable psychic/deduction powers, I sense green... a manly mint green.

A guy here in Portland (well, across the river in Vancouver, WA) managed to get his wife to play ASL. She's even been to some local tournaments. She makes here money by painting minis for people who find her via the internet. And the Two 1/2 squads podcast interviewed a Dutch woman at a tournament who plays regularly. So that would make at least three women who play ASL!!
