Believe me, the people playing appreciate the precautions I take. My house is not located in one of the safest neighborhoods in Ithaca, so they doubly appreciate it. I wouldn't be shocked if some of the local criminal element actually are aware of the game, but they also probably know there are WAY easier targets. The firearms aren't a problem, since the players are family, close friends, or people vouched for by them exclusively, plus my brother, who's there every week, is a probation officer licensed to carry firearms, and one of the occasional players in the game is an off-duty NY State Trooper, so my gun is rarely the only one in the room.

And Trajan and Hadrian, despite their size, are really big sweethearts. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] Until I tell them not to be. Or until they see someone threatening my wife or child. God help the moron who does that.
