OGL

Short for the Open Gaming License, a competently written open license (compare to the GPL, an incompetently written license). The most famous game that has been released under the OGL includes d20 (the system that runs the Dungeons & Dragons, Star Wars, and Call of Cthulhu role-playing games), although there are a few other minor games also released under this license.

If it says OGL on the cover, it means it was written for d20 but they can't say that, wink wink, nudge nudge.

crater

In the game Shattered Galaxy, crater describes territory 44 -- the territory in the exact middle of the map. It has only one POC, is easily defended, AND repairs can be made there without returning to the capital, making it an ideal forwards-base -- as well as a hotly-contested zone for battles.

Attacks against Crater are tough, man. Get 10 people to go with you or don't go at all.

sin

The act one engages in when one is just finally beginning to have fun.

When finally the hard-working Mennonite had enough money to feed his family, he paused; knowing gluttony to be a sin.
