<r>Dwarven Forge's products, while beautiful, are...well, they're out of my reach financially.<br/> <br/> For rock formations in WH40k, I used to use polystyrene, a hot wire cutter, and some other bits. Would a similar technique work for rock walls?<br/> _________________<br/> Ben Overmyer<br/> Arti...

Using wargaming hobby techniques for RPGs

<r>Is it viable to build terrain blocks and pieces, such as those used by aficionados of Games Workshop's games, for usage in tabletop RPGs? I've often wondered why I never see anyone use a flocked table and a host of plastic trees for a forest encounter. Is there something I'm missing?<br/> <br/> S...

Legality of homebrew digitally "published" campaig

<r>Many, many years ago, I created a D&D knockoff RPG that I posted on the Net. The rules were horribly similar to OD&D's. The setting itself was kind of novel, with dinosaurs running around with dragons, raptor-riding tribal warriors, and other fun things.<br/> <br/> Having recently become ...

<r>I think the visuals are nice. While I hate Angelina "Lips From Hell" Jolie, the other casting choices are good ones in my opinion.<br/> <br/> Whether the movie will be good or not....that remains to be seen. I reserve judgment until I've seen it.<br/> _________________<br/> Ben Overmyer<br/> Arti...

I dropped Peter an email about it. Here's hoping I get an opportunity to work with the Trolls!

Is Crusader #1 gone forever?

I want to get ahold of a copy of the first issue of the Crusader, but the site says it's out of stock. Is it no longer possible to get this issue?

Art for the Crusader?

I'm a freelance artist, and I'm interested in doing artwork for the Crusader (and maybe C&C modules/supplements!). I can't seem to find any artist submission guidelines on the site.

Who do I talk to?

Hello, hello. Hail and well met and all that.

I just recently discovered Castles & Crusades, and will be running an adventure using the QuickStart rules this weekend. I look forward to enjoying the game thoroughly.

2nd Printing vs 3rd Printing PHB?

What are the differences, besides the glossy pages? Should I get the new one, or the leatherette "old" one?

So, I read through the C&C Quickstart rules, and...

<t>I'm thoroughly intrigued.<br/> <br/> I'm also dead certain that one of my regular players will totally despise it. He's the type that rifles through any official material he can find to manipulate the rules into making him nigh unkillable, or at least so min-maxed that it's difficult to write adv...

You could always corrupt...ah, I mean, convert some NEW players.
