<t>My FLGS more or less sucks. It did let me put up a flyer advertising for players, so I guess it doesn't totally suck. How lame is its collection? It didn't even have the 4E books when 4E was released. Just a lot of 3.X crap at full price. And a bunch of junk I don't want in banker's boxes on the ...

In my campaign, a paladin could execute an evil humanoid prisoner without any alignment consequences. Lawful good does not equal lawful stupid. In my campaign world (and I suspect most others), the death penalty is something ordinary.

I took a gander at the spell last night. My inclination is to rule that each stone loses its magical properties after it is fired at a target. The druid can make as many as she wants.

Great concept for a movie/series, but the script sucked. Very poorly executed movie. I'm glad I waited to rent it on video. I would have been moderately pissed if I had paid full admission price at a theater.

It's been over 4 months. I'm getting very concerned that you became angry at your children and confined them to some Dickensian hell-hole. Let the children play!

Welcome to the Crusade!

<t>I think only putting 1 HD monsters in the first level of a dungeon is a little too rigid. A party of 6 1st level characters should be able to tackle one or two 3 hit dice monsters. There's no need to make them go down two flights of stairs before springing the 3 HD baddies on them. The trick is t...

My understanding is that there will not be an official rule concerning multiclassing. The rumors about the CKG suggest most likely more than one method will be included (but those are old rumors!).

If someone plans to actually use the book rather than just collect it, the current bid of $11 for the lot is very reasonable. I think I paid around $45 for my mint copy of the Rules Cyclopedia last year on eBay.

<t>I used the zombies as written in the module (1/2 damage from weapons) and didn't have any problems.<br/> <br/> On the other hand, I personally found the module a little dry. There's not much to it beyond kick in the door and kill whatever you see. We got some nice role-playing out of the party in...

How the heck did she get to 139 hit points?! I guess it's mathematically possible, but damn! That's some good dice-rolling.

<t>I'm working on a one-shot for Mutant Future. I've got the bare bones of it in place so that I can actually run it, but I think I'll type it up in Word format so I can send it to others if they are interested. I'm afraid it is too challenging for first level characters, so I definitely need to get...

<t>My advice concerns application of the SIEGE engine. In case you haven't gotten to it yet, the SIEGE engine is a rule mechanic that helps you determine whether characters are successful when they attempt something challenging with a significant chance of failure. When using the SIEGE engine, the C...

I liked Dragons of Airhde: Miasmal Wyrms. It let me throw some dragon-like creatures at a first level party without the guarantee of a TPK. I went with unk wyrms, nasty little critters who vomited on the party and use illusions.

I placed my order Monday and my goodies arrived today. I love the Trolls.

Anyway thought it would be a cool thing to share.

No, a cool thing to share would be a PM to me with the name and location of the store so I can swing through any buy the good stuff before and of these other jackals can get there.

JG, I'm pulling for you. I've had my brush with scary medical death possiblity, but I got lucky and it all turned out okay. I hope you're back in the saddle ASAP.

Dude, just call the Trolls directly. Long distance is stupid cheap these days and the Trolls are awesome with phone orders.

Nothing explicit bothers me, but I see no reason to engage in it, either.

I'm fine with the explicit if it's done better than Laurell K. Hamilton's prose. If I want erotica, I want good erotica.

Just placed my order. Ah, shopping kicks ass! I just want to lay back and groan like Cartman when he was home-schooled.

AWESOME SALE! I tried to place a phone order, but no one appears to be working Sunday night. Go figure. I'm all over this in the morning. Hell yeah!

One way to solve this problem would be to force the player to decide at first level whether the PC is going ...

I'm so happy I became a troll with that post.

Whats also known is that the wife had been Jordan's co author for about 75% of the series, and his editor.

Wow. I had heard she was heavily involved in the editing process, but I didn't realize she was involved enough in the writing to be considered a coauthor.
