Everyone remember the countdown on WotC website for the big 4e announcement? I hope that their website doesn't crash for a few hours or days or whatever.

Krull suppose only forty bunnies and Burritos?

Wow... I would think that if this were just an announcement for their next AP it wouldn't be a big deal, so maybe this is it. I'm feeling kinda excited to find out, but I have that nagging "empty stomach" feeling I get when something I've waited for finally arrives. It's like the waiting is the...

To do what? Hand them over to the local human populace, paraded through a human town that they've probably been robbing already, just to be killed by the jailor? And what about their equipment (treasure)? Isn't it petty assault and robbery to take their things and throw them in jail? Or take...

A cameo in Spiderman would be cool... they tend to happen all the time in the comic books. I liked the one where Spiderman took down Firelord single-handedly (who came to New York to get a pizza like at 8 a.m.), then at the end the X-Men (or was it the Fantastic Four?) showed up to help, too...

I'm designing some encounters that are all based on the Major Image spell, and I'm curious how much can be done with the spell. The effect of the spell is based on Silent Image, which states: Effect: Visual figment that cannot extend beyond four 10-ft. cubes + one 10-ft. cube/level (S) "This...

I would love to see a magazine that filled the void of adventures based on other d20 publishers. Dungeon will often include an adventure that incorporates rules from new books (Frostburn, Libris Mortis, Draconomicon), and many of the downloadable adventures from Wizards.com do the same thing...

I like City Works, myself. If you plan on making your own city, I'd say you should get it. I've used it quite a bit during my Dungeon Magazine Adventure Path campaign. I also like Theives' Quarter, which gives you a city to use, although only the Old Quarter is fully detailed as of yet.

Game Day in Korea I ran the Eberron table in Seoul, Korea. I ran two groups through, one with seven players, and the next with five, and they both took about four hours to go through the adventure. We only had about 20 people sign in, but there were plenty of others that kept looking over...

I'm planning two scenarios for the lightning rail. Scenario #1 Based on the scenario with Indiana Jones on the blimp. The party has something that someone wants. Some authorities search the train for them, asking for identification cards. A simple scenario that should avoid combat. I'm...

Two words: The. Tick.

1. The lack of disguise for Alicia Silverstone's Batgirl. She didn't look like Batgirl. She looked like Alicia Silverstone with trendy sunglasses. 2. Bane, in Batman Forever. How can you turn the man who broke Batman's back into a pathetic henchman? 3. The comic-book panel style of The...

As a DM, I try to give out the money as per the character wealth chart. Every few levels above 6th I'll ask to see a character sheet from any of the players and see what they have in items and money. If they seem really low, I give them a "bump up" on their next outing, or they get rewarded...

I accidently hit "other" but I meant "third party." I have all of the Path books by FFG, and among them Path of Shadow is the most used. I've run a Delver and another player ran a Jack of Knives. I don't think that they are very difficult to update them to 3.5, either. I've done it for each...

Has Realm's Lore been in every issue? I'm not a big fan of those aritcles, so I don't really notice if it's not included. Also... Paizo has relaunched their website, and they have their own message boards. The editorial staff answer questions quite regularly. I'm sure if you started a thread...
