Trash talkin' at the table

Do you guys ever talk trash right before you throw down on some dice?

I sometimes have the bad guys talk trash if it's in their character.

The only time I ever smacktalk at the table is when someone playing a druid. Damn I hate druids...100,000 summoned animals just slow down a damn game.

Exactly, I love having some of the bad guys running their mouths at the PCs. It livens up a game.

Those flower sniffing, tree hugging, Ent kissing, bear loving, hippy bastards!

Thank you!

Good friend of mine (known to visit this board from time to time) once simultaneously showed me why druids kicked ass and why they're not fun for anyone but the guy playing the druid.

You know, gaming last night, I found something that ticks off players more then any trash talk ever:
Improved Sunder.
They just explode with madness when it hits them.

True story: my buds in Tucson played XCrawl for quite a while. I was visiting, so they invited me to play. They were high level, so I played a minotaur fighter (Bovus Bellicus) and sunk all my cash into a +2 adamantine heavy mace I dubbed Disaster. I also had all the Sunder feats, as well as the tactical feat that lets you sunder and keep on smashing with one attack.

I hook up with their characters, carefully grown and with all kinds of cool equipment, and at the end we meet up with a vampire that dominates me.

I smashed all their good stuff before they finally killed ol' Bovus. I think maybe they were a little mad.

All praise Sunder!

Here's an exchange we had a few years back:

Wizard: DUDE! Paladins are supposed to run into a fight, not away from one! What's that, the third time tonight?

Paladin: As opposed to hiding behind the rogue like you do? Pretty pitiful having to use a half-pint as cover while you lob magic missles at the darkness.

Rogue: DON'T drag me into this.

Wizard: Shut up, John.

Paladin: Yeah, shut up, John. Backstabbing b!%*$ halfling.
