    Wrath of Ashardalon Review

    I play this game with my 6 year old. We have tweaked the rules a little to make it fit better with his age. We do less encounters (only on a black triangle tile when first stepping onto it) and less treasure (we pre-agree a few places for treasure cards to be found). Half the time I set up...

    Last Few RPG Products you purchased?

    I found an old Freeport adventure (Crisis) for a couple of quid in a sales section at a games store. I love Freeport, so that was a definite find! Gamesmastery Guide (Pathfinder) - good, but not quite what I was hoping for. And then in truth the rest has been magazines (Kobold Quarterly) and...

    Looking for artists

    I suggest that if you are serious and are willing to pay, you should take a look at DeviantArt and contact a couple of your favourite artists on that site.

    Why no low?

    I have GMed with some lowish stat characters, but generally the wisdom and charisma dump stats. The first ever game I played in I had a Gnome that was rolled the old fashioned way, and a 14 was considered a very good stat. I am half-way to agreeing with Morrus, except that in my games I don't...

    Kosmoceratops

    Probably a stupid question, but looking at the bones made me want to ask: is it possible that the horns were compressed during the same process that caused ossification? I mean, it looks to my untrained eye like they could have stood upright, but with some soft tissue underneath that has...

    What do you want to see in a campaign setting book?

    90+% fluff (ala Freeport, which is 100% fluff). Great characters, but only a tiny amount of high powered people. Fantastic writing. Original ideas, or at least not just another Europe. Strong central idea, or if you go kitchen sink have tons and TONS of good ideas for the DM to feed off of...

    Which D&D Campaign World did you enjoy most?

    I never got to play in it, but Freeport was the campaign setting I could not put down. Beautiful writing - way beyond the level you see on most RPG material. Perhaps one day I will get to play or DM in this world. For nostalgia reasons, and also because the grey box was awesome to a starting...

    Subscription levels dropping

    I cancelled my subscription for 2 reasons: 1) I was hosting a game here, but the game has finished and I visit and post here much less often. When I was hosting the game I wanted to contribute for the effort you put into the site 2) I am a Pathfinder player with no interest in 4e. This site, to...

    What could a publisher sell you RIGHT NOW/

    Yeah, this, but I would hope that they would take the opportunity to do the following: Fix the Nicolas Logue adventure continuity. It sucked! He over-wrote, and large sections had to be cut, and the adventure suffered massively as a result. It just felt terribly disjointed Tie later adventures...

    Minor Good Gods

    Moving away from the comic options for a moment, why not take a bit of flavour from Shinto, but reskin it for your campaign. You could have a God of beauty in nature - when a tree branch curls in upon itself like a twisting limb, or when a large stone has been wind-carved into a spiral - that...

    [Pathfinder] Hewligan's Rise of the Runelords: The Hook Mountain Massacre

    I just hope your girlfriend is recovering well. This was just a game, and there are much more important things in life! I am not blaming anyone and I don't feel any frustration. I never thought when I started this that it would continue for so long, and in many ways we have all been lucky that...

    [Pathfinder] Hewligan's Rise of the Runelords: The Hook Mountain Massacre

    GAME OVER It has been 7 days since Fenris last posted, and 9 days for Friadoc. Half the party has gone AWOL. I cannot roleplay for half a party + 2 NPC members + the opposition. I may as well just read a book. I do appreciate all the incredibly creative posts you have all invested into this...

    Important: Please Read! Changes Are Coming!

    Am I correct that so far this announcement amounts to: "Going forward, if you want a sig you have to pay $3 a month"??? If so - fine by me. I turn the blasted things off anyway as I find them a waste of screen real-estate.
