Troll Lord Games

<t>I had one year of Business Law in college, so I decided to pop on over to WotC and read the GSL for 4e. <br/> If I read the agreement correctly, all the following statements are true:<br/> <br/> 1) Section 18 gives WotC the right to produce an exact duplicate of your Intellectual Property.<br/> <...

His adventures for basic and expert D&D were some of my favorites.<br/> <br/> refer: <URL url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Moldvay">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Moldvay</URL><br/> ______...

Lego Star Wars, Lego Indiana Jones...why not a Lego RPG?

<t>As an aside to the posts on this topic, you CAN get a preview of 4th edition. Go over to EN World and read their excellent FAQ on 4th edition. It contains everything that has been said about 4th edtion to date.<br/> <br/> The part about 4th edition that kills me is, they are planning on the rate ...

I am assuming the "Prysmal Eye" doesn't qualify as a conversion, Then?

Don't say that, because Axl recently turned that album over to his record label and announced it was finished.

<t>I am planning a Greyhawk campaign which is going to start in Verbonc. Several adventures down the road, however, they are going to end up in Keoland and Sterich. The people there don't speak the common tongue but have their own language.<br/> <br/> It just occurred to me that because this system ...

I have been organizing the same kind of campaign lately, set in the World of Greyhawk:<br/> <br/> 1) Temple of Elemental Evil (T1-4)<br/> <br/> 2) Scourge of the Slave Lords (A1-4)<br/> <br/> 3) Queen of Spiders (GDQ1-7)<br/> <br/> 4) the Boxed set of "...

No, I will not play this game.

I would not play it while aflame.

I would not play it if doomsday came.
I will not play it, because it's lame.

I could not play it due to shame.

Just because I'm a grumpy, bitter, sad little man, I really want to see 4th Edtion crash and burn in a pyrotechnic blaze of glory.

Interestingly enough, Astronomers have discovered that on this date, our solar system will be in exact alignment with the center of our galaxy.<br/> <br/> No word on whether or not the Mayans knew this or if it was...

I should have known better than to ask this question on April 1st.

What's up with the Castle Keeper's Guide? I don't see a thread for it in the Upcoming Releases forum.

You should check out the 0one games website. Their April Fools' gag was priceless: A press release announcing 0one's hostile takeover of WotC and the impending release of D&D 5th edition.

<t>Cheeplives' solution seems to make the most sense: half EV for every item in the backpack. I like it! <br/> <br/> I tend to use Encumberance when creating characters and then ignore it. As GM, I usually say "Gee, that much treasure is going to require a bag of holding or a handy haversack".<br/> ...

<t>I have a problem with the Encumbrance Value rules for Castles and Crusades. The average human has an EV of 10. A backpack containing a 1 gallon waterskin and seven days worth of food has an EV of 8. That leaves no room for rope, torches, loot, weapons, armor, etc.....<br/> <br/> Did I miss someth...

<t>I prefer to think of "Good" as helping others and "evil" as being selfish and greedy. Notice I used a lower-case e for the world evil. "Capital E" evil is reserved for cannibals. demon worshippers, serial killers, murderers, rapists, etc....<br/> <br/> As for the benefits of being evil:<br/> <br/...

Interesting. They are listed as possible encounters in the random dungeon tables in the back of the 1e DMG. Oh well, I'll just replace the encounter. Thanks!

Looking for monsters to convert to C & C, and I ran across a little mystery. I have seen references to Mezzodaemons and Nycadaemons, but I am unable to locate them. Suggestions?

To the OP: "New version of the rules" is not a phrase I am very fond of right now.
