    [Anti-RPGs] Dwarflord

    Re: Re: [Anti-RPGs] Dwarflord Apparently it's not very difficult. Wave your hands around and say the word "Huzzah". AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, you have to have an evil look on your face. Or just look like you're taking a dump. Kind of like this... :mad:

    What made D&D 'evil'?

    So in other words, Hitler didn't have a high charisma. He may have had a few ranks in leadership and diplomacy and the DC's for fascist influence were very low? I don't know enough about Hitler to make that distinction. People opposing the RPG industry may have exploited the Hitler reference...

    [Anti-RPGs] Dwarflord

    It's interesting that the current Saturday morning Disney/ABC line-up primarily focuses on kids in what's presented as "real world" situations (through their lens of course). This Lizzy show, some show called "Even Steven", Recess, Pepper Ann, Lloyd in Space, Teamo Supremo; they are competing...

    (OT-a bit) CivIII- Has anyone...?

    Timeline Timeline: Fantasy Civilization Combat is our d20 interpretation. Fields of Blood, if I'm not mistaken, is more like Age of Empires than Civilization. For example, our "rounds" are generally a generation a piece. Fields of Blood, IIRC has a morning round and an afternoon round...

    ratio of rules to background, what should or is the right balance?

    One of our company's goals is to convert what many would define as "setting material" into new sets of rules. With Timeline we are taking civilizations and history, normally presented in freeform essays, and converting them into crunchy d20 rules. Dragon had another good example. Instead of...

    Moderators are planned, right? If you wanted to cut back on moderators, perhaps you could include a validation feature. Readers have an option to validate a review. If a review doesn't receive at least 5 (or whatever) validations it is removed after a month (or whenever). d20Forever.com...

    Gaming Frontier's Next Rant Should Be

    We announced our planned products even though most of them probably won't be available until 2003. The reason we put them out there is to let other developers know what we're working on. Sure, there's a big risk that they might try to beat us to the punch, but we feel it's the right thing to...
