Preparation for HeroQuest

I believe it's spelled lamination with an i.

Actually, the term is lamentation, which is the expression, usually audibly, of deep grief, sorrow, regret or mourning.

Oddly enough, the best representation of Hyborian magic which I have seen in game form was the grubby old Conan roleplaying game which TSR published in the mid-1980s. You could get some terrifyingly powerful magic, were you willing to accept various unwholesome flaws. Very Howardian, in my opinion. There were three published adventures, as I recall, before it vanished. At least it was better than Bullwinkle & Rocky...

[CONAN: To crush your enemies, to see them driven before you, and to hear the lamenation of the women!

I believe it's spelled lamination with an i.

LOL, didn't see that. HA! That's funny.

How exactly would you hear someone who had been laminated?

I think he's probably talking about hearing the actual process. You know:
"No, please, don't! Ow, that stings. My feet! They're stuck! No, please! Help! Mmmf! Mmmmmmffff! mmff! mm"

That sort of thing.

to RaconteurX: just kidding

Soda...

Out of my nose...

Again...

Curse you, dunlaing! I will have my revenge!

(Serious mode on)

As RaconteurX notes, the word was intended initially to be "lamentation" not "lamenation" or "lamination". It was a silly and obvious (and obviously silly?) typo. I'm sorry. But it did derail the thread into one of the funnier turns I've seen to date. For that, I'm not sorry. Thanks for the laughs dunlaing. At this point in time, I could use them.

EDIT: Fixed another typo. Scripty's gone 0 for 2 on this thread...
