    Computerized DM aids

    Vista and eTools I've noticed that Vista doesn't like anything beyond the basic installation of eTools either. I've got the original installed with the patches but when I go to install any of the supplements (FRCS, for example) it won't register the fact that I've installed them :(

    D&D hits Soapland

    You are so right. I forgotten the Australian Soap Act of 198-something which passed with an overwhelming majority through both the House of Commons and the House of Lords. I have so gotta shut up :lol:

    D&D hits Soapland

    Look - it's on when I have my evening meal and the Missus likes it. But - yeah - I'm a bit embarrassed now that you mention it - about watching Neighbours, not the fact that it showed people playing D&D :D At least it wasn't portrayed in a really bad light like some shows have done. I remember...

    D&D hits Soapland

    Folks? I was watching the Australian soap, Neighbours, this evening and D&D was featured. It seems that cheeky wheeler-dealer and former pubowner, Lou Carpenter, is a Dungeon Master for a bunch of kids at Erinsborough High. It was only featured for a couple of minutes (a long time in...

    Kalmari

    Nothing like Admiral Ackbar, I'm afraid. They are amorphous beings with a smokey, mistlike consistency. They appear as an inverted teardrop, with a 3-foot-long prehensile tail. Villains' Lorebook, page 70. I think they're supposed to be related to the nishruu (3rd Ed. Monsters of Faerun) and...

    Kalmari

    I was wondering if anyone has converted the Kalmari from the Villains' Lorebook yet.

    How old were you when you started playing D&D?

    How old... I was about seventeen and was introduced to AD&D 1E, then bought 2E when it came out and began DM'ing with that.

    Giving Fighters Another Class Skill

    Fighter Skills Finding the lack of the Profession skill in the Fighter's class skills a completely strange affair, I've allowed my players to have it for free. :heh:

    How many of your own PCs can you remember?

    Memorable Characters I've been a GM/DM for most of my gaming life, so I actually remember more characters in my games than ones I've played...like the two dwarven brothers in WFRP who were running through the sewers of Bogenhafen carrying a door so that they could cross sewer pipes without...

    Favorite non-human PHB race.

    Favourite Non-Human Race Gotta be half-elves. Ever since I read Dragons of Autumn Twilight and met Tanis, I've been enamoured by the race and try and play one whenever possible :)

    Rate Van Helsing

    Van Helsing Hmmm...I gave it an 8. I don't believe it's as good as Stephen Somers' Mummy films, but it kept me entertained for the duration. But Kate Beckinsale is, as ever, a hotty :o

    [June] What are you reading?

    What You Reading? I've just finished Harry Potter & The Order of the Phoenix. Okay, but could have done with less padding. Is J.K. trying to be the new J.R.R. Tolkien? I'm reading at the "City of" Angel book, but mainly because my group has just started the Angel RPG.
