Even if I were interested in 4e, Wizards has pretty much told me I'm not interested in the DDI as I'm on a Mac. And the dungeon builder actually had my interest for a moment. Ah well. Take care Don

There's also this implication that if some group out there finds the various fighter options open from 3rd edition weren't used by them, they aren't used by anyone. My groups have always used terrain to affect combat, has always used odd and exciting encounter areas, and always enjoy pulling out...

I run two table-top groups and one online game. Of them, the online group hasn't talked about it as a whole much, but myself and one other player are pretty anti-4e. We're just not liking the overall changes. A few points here and there are cool, but it's not looking like our game. My first...

I have to toss in my two cents' worth as well, and agree with the above. The closest is the second category, but really, 60 to about 120, 130 is where I sit. Roger E. Moore/Mohan (earlier especially). Take care Don

I'm neither here nor there on these preview books. I'm sure they'll be fine, and the audience for them will enjoy them immensely. I just wish the design team would stop inventing words beyond words needed for the game. Concepted has shown up TWICE by two different staff members, and I want to...

In response to the internet access deal, here's where my groups are on it: I have two different gaming groups at the tabletop (not online, a third group). Combined, these two groups give me eight players, plus myself. Of them, all but one has internet access. Some have limited access, and...

I've nothing to add to the list, but in all seriousness, thank you for letting me know I'm not alone in hating the rampant abuse of "killed it and took its stuff". Good lord, I feel like this board isn't a community of roleplayers, but a parrot house. I now feel less alone out here in...

That's my general policy too. Amazon is spot on and great, as long as the item listed reads "ships in 24 hours". I'll often get it sooner than they say I will. If there's any longer shipping time on it, especially a range listed in weeks, i.e. "Ships in 1-3 weeks" or "ships in 4-6 weeks", I'll...

As a note, Name of the Game is no longer in business either. Not for quite some time. The shop was very complete, but the owner was a major issue with the place. Nice guy...but yeah, damned creepy. Three Trolls is quite a solid game store in general, and their RPG selection is small, but...

Stunning, terrible news. I'm truly sorry for you and his family. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. Take care Don

"Aye, let us do our best," Viviene replied. "We need to spread apart, but try and keep each other at the edge of our vision." She started to move off in one direction, moving as quietly as she could, and keeping an eye out for her partner.

"Indeed, we should head out quickly," Viviene replied as she mounted her horse, and then made a quick, last-minute check that her supplies and weapons were secured. "I fear the bandit troubles will not keep Lord Aaron north for very long." She gave a rueful smile as she urged her horse to start out.

Viviene steps out with her pack of equipment, dressed in her traveling clothes and ring mail. "I'm quite ready, thank you for asking," She says with a soft smile. She is nervous, but holds her head up and moves down to the stables, after stopping by her grandda's armory for her weapons. As she...

Viviene finished her cup of wine and quietly moved towards the doors of the chamber, ready to head out and make preparations for her trip, her mind racing with thoughts about what was happening, and going to happen. She took her time though, making sure she wasn't the first, nor necessarily the...

Viviene smiled at the announcement of Ser Allister returning to head the outriders. That made her feel better, despite the momentary anger from Lord Osric. After the lord was done speaking, she turned back to her grandfather with that warm smile and put his hand in hers. "Of course, Grandda...
