Troll Lord Games

Did Wotc say what percentage of our cost goes to the Gygax memorial fund? Seems a bit expensive for books with interior all black & white. Wouldn't want to drop the cash and find Wotc only donated a single digit percentage to the fund. Especially since I already own the original books. Awfully ...

As opposed to a gay release?

or did they clean it up a bit?

If it is, I suppose they'd have to.

It is true, and one of the mysteries of the universe. Is there some way I might help? I do locate OOP books of different genres in my sideline. PM me.

For those that have used the Kindle version, how easy is it to navigate through? For example, when you want to just reference a particular subject, how quickly can you jump to that page? I'm just beginning to learn to use mine, so I haven't figured this out yet. It depends if the author or publishe...

This is from the Troll's Tusk newsletter that went out yesterday: "Classic Monsters is completed and at the printer. It should be out in the next few weeks, assuming there is nothing wrong with the text or what have you. The bundles will ship as we get them in and then the whole deal will go o...

It's better medium-well, depending on how it's tenderized.

I have that folder on my desktop.

The next reader I'm going to buy is one with a color eInk display. As long as file support is there. I'm having great success with my Nook tablet. I subscribe to a couple of magazines and they display very well on it. I'm also reading an edition of Edgar Rice Burroughs' first Barsoom trilogy contai...

I'm a Nook man myself. Hey Yo, what you think, is the Nook vs. Kindle simply like a PC vs. Mac thing or do you think it is more along the lines of Beta vs. VHS? The only real differences I can see are: - that the Nook Tablet can take memory expansion, and none of the Kindles can. - the Nook Tablet ...

If not, I might take a stab at it.

Big Purple Machine

Thank you! I feel somewhat extra-stupid, having forgotten RPGnet. It's been years, i think.

Amnesia is a terrible thing to waste!

Purple machine? Guess I don't ge tout enough. I know of the green cesspool, but no purple machine.

They look pretty efficint. But the only reason I'd wan tPeter's version is the chance of art bein' on 'em.

I'm a Nook man myself. But since both the Nook AND Kindle versions suffer from Lack Of Art Syndrome (LOAS) I tend to read PDF versions on the Nook tablet. Looks just like the digest sized books.

During the first ten hours, one loses only Sanity Points, at the rate 2 ponts the first hour, then squared every 90 minutes thereafter. At the end of ten hours, you lose the will to live, an dthus all hit points at once.

So YOU were the person who bought that game!

We just have a Popeye sheet on our mattress, and a Marvel quilt.

You can last 10 HOURS without something fannish. Whether that's RPGs, comics, Old Time Radio, fantasy, or sf -- it's a well-documented fact that no fan can live longer than TEN HOURS without one of these. While you may be able to last ten hours without fandom, you will start to feel the effects of d...

Link -- anybody? Peter? Pleeeeease? (I need a begging smiley.)

Then there's Monte Cooke's 7-zillion page city of -- I forget. Ptooey or something like that.

One of the hazards of Too Many Hobbies Syndrome (TMHS) from which I suffer. Started out as a comics fan in 1956 or 1957 (you can still find me in the occasional issue of Alter-Ego ), got hooked on RPGs in 1977, then church history and geneology in 1990, yoyology in 1995, and finally (I hope!) magic ...

I haven't had the opportunity to do any of the kickstarter's for C&C until now, so I went all out for the $150 package. The idea of getting to include my own swath of land in the setting is way cool, plus I'm stoked about the maps, screen and the customized journal. Really looking forward to th...

These effects begin after 1 full day without food or water. Each day no food 1-4 dam no water 1-6 dam both 1-8 dam No saves involved. ?? So those rules have at ~50% of people dying after 2 days without food & water? In early Traveller, one had about the same chance of dying after two days witho...

Maybe Sir Ironsides' NPC, Barnaby P. Molecramp, could use these rules?

And that is a cool NPC! Yes and approved!

I forgot to mention that he weighs in around 300 lbs.

Who doesn't?

What is the best way to serve up dragon oysters!! First you serve the dragon oysters a salad. Then you follow with an appetizer. Then the main course, and end (of course) with dessert. One problem is that dragon oysters tend to have food allergies, and one should ask about this when the dragon oyst...

To really take a monk out of the stereotype of oriental and/or martial artist, have him played by Tony Shalhoub.

Does this mean that you can add a unique place, item and a NPC? (Pretty much saying it is your choice if you wish to either add a NPC, but you don't have to if you don't want.) Well, from my experience translating trollspeak, it sounds as though you can have either or both. So you can do both if yo...

And I just noticed that someone else remembers Pete Dixon. ("Do you prefer black or colored?" "I prefer 'Pete.'")
