Well, D&D Experience is past and a lot of information has some out. At this point, my group and I are still uncommitted to going to 4e or remaining with 3.5. I have mixed feelings about the new edition. Some stuff appears to be good, alot appears to be so-so in my eyes and some stuff is down...

Arrghh. Ahoy, me fellow Jacks and lasses. Where be the rest of me mateys on this fine Talk like a Pirate Day? Scrubbing the bilges? Swilling yer grog like ol' one eye Jack? Countin' your swag? Answer the roll, ya lubbers, or it will the the plank and Davey Jones' cold embrace for ya.

A question - Will someone who takes the Commander class for this adventure path get opportunities to fully strut his stuff, like commanding small or large military units at some point? Seems like a good class to try out if there is going to be military style battles to be fought and troops to...

This thread is inspired somewhat by Upper Krust's Future Format of 4th Edition D&D thread as well as the host of many threads discussing whether D&D is too rules heavy and the quest by some for a good D&D-Lite ruleset. The question: Is generational factors warring for the heart and soul of...

Inspired by the thread discussing the RttToH and the player who 'freaked' out, I thought a poll would capture how other ENWorlder would feel in a similar circumstance. Here is the setup: Your DM pulls out RttToH and shows your group it and states that this is the next adventure in your ongoing...

This was posted to the Realms-L list by Eric Boyd and I am reposting it here as it is of general interest to ENWorld members. The linked trilogy is probably the Dungeon of the Crypt adventures hinted at in Dungeon magazine. For your edification....

I have notice over the years than the source of many a TPK has it origins in the plan or lack of a plan. I have noticed with a number of players that I have played with over the years that they plan a initial course of action but never have a backup plan. As a DM, I have watched my players...

Our group will be starting a new campaign as the old one finished up recently. Our group discussed Eberron and the consensus is to go for it. Then one of the players stated that he would make a warforged and would name him 'C3PO'. Another player picked up on this and said he would also have a...

Ed Greenwood's Castlemorn campaign setting is supposed to be released by Fast Forward Entertainment in Jan '94. It is now Feb and not a word. No fanfare or advertising campaign leading up to release. Nothing on FFE site of a recent nature concerning the setting and the last news about it is...

I'm DMed for some 26+ years and probably for the last half of those years, all my players have been younger than me. In fact, quite a bit younger than me. To me, age doesn't matter. RPGs is about telling a story and enjoying one's self. I don't care how young someone as long as he can...

Are we now a house divided? The vision of 3E in part was to introduce clear, coherent and enjoyable rules for D&D. In short, to fix some of the problems of past editions. And 2E had the reputation of being fuzzy in a lot of areas that a number of people had 'house rules' 3E was supposed to...

The Council of Magisters and Monte (when he can) will be making frequent stops on the messageboards. To make it easier to catch our eye (and Monte's eye) - if you want to initiate any AU discussion that you don't mind the Council making comments or answering questions on, prefix the thread...

What gives with the Going Down the Road to Hell adventures by Shark? Part 1 is two months overdue, Part 2 is one month overdue. Any idea as to when these will be available?

Most of you are already heard of Arcana Unearthed, the alternate PHB to be released by Malhavoc Press. And you may have heard about The Diamond Throne, a settings book for Arcana Unearthed. The poll is self explanatory - namely, do you have an interest or would you support a Living Diamond...
