    Pathfinder 1E Pathfinder East of StLouis

    Looking for players for a laid back PF game in the metro east area (I live in Fairview Heights). My wife and I are mid 20s and educated, and we're looking for similar folk to play with. PM me here if interested and we'll figure out the details. But really I'll take anybody that can count.

    One Ring east of St. Louis

    Exactly what the post says. I've got a house in Fairview Heights (on 64 'bout 20 mins east of downtown STL) but am flexible about where we play. Edit: I really don't give a damn what we play, game-wise. That is just a suggestion.

    Why I'm not worried about Fighter "options"

    I have never understood why folks act like the fighter (and by extension, other martial characters) are boring if they don't have several mechanically distinct combat abilities. Coming up through AD&D, the idea that it was tedious to make attack rolls just never occurred to us. Spells were...

    Expedition to Castle Ravenloft

    I'm thinking of running the 3.5 in my Pathfinder game. Any advice, opinions or random comments. It doesn't seem to deviate much from the original (other than adding stuff; I have both), but any input would be useful. The encounter format seems bizarre, but workable: I'm not really sure, as I...

    Kobold Hall

    Has anyone used the sample dungeon from the DMG? I'm thinking of throwing it into the next game I run as short dungeon excursion. What did you think? Any changes? I am thinking of adding a few rooms, or maybe even altering the shape/ size of the rooms to fit my dungeon tiles.

    Critical hit system

    What critical hit system do you use? Straight up natural 20, double damage? Or 42 charts? I'm more more the latter. I like combat grim and brutal, so I use the system from 2E Combat & Tactics. With the 3E ranges. Yeah, I like dismemberment. Any "threat" is a crit: none of this cockamamey...

    Running a Solo Campaign

    Earlier today I was lurking around, reading a thread and someone asked for advice about running a solo game. I didn't want to threadjack (the discussing was good anyway...), and I think the subject deseves it own thread anyway. I've been running a solo with a good friend of mine for about 2...

    Knoxville Area game

    I'm looking for a group to game with in K-town, since my last band of merry fools has disbanded. I've DMed pretty much exclusively for the last couple years, and would like a change of place. That said, if I had player interest I would gladly run a game. I really don't care which system, genre...

    Non-gamer's reaction to D&D

    At a party, my regular group was discussing random campaign stuff. A guy sitting nearby had been listening, and pipes up "So you're, like badass homeless guys with swords and sacks of gold? F*** Yeah! I'm in..."

    Picking Up Dark Sun, what do I need?

    I want to run a 2e Darksun campaign. What books do I need? I've got all of the stuff to run 2e Player's Option (I've been running 3e for a while now, might be interesting to switch back), but have nothing on Darksun but interest. Thanks.

    Cooperative approach to Refitting Campaign World

    I am co-operativly fitting 4e changes to my exiting campaign world with my most enthusiastic player (I'd include the others but I think he is thepnly that interested). He bought Races&Classes, and has some decent ideas (only have a short conversation to go by though). I've never gotten into the...

    What to do about inconsistant player interest?

    I currently have a player in my game that has been showing very inconsistant interest lately. He shows up for games maybe two out of three sessions(we play weekly), but ranges from hyper interested (calling all day, showing up early, etc.) to flat out blowing it off. Lately he has been getting...
