The ending is massively disappointing. Martek ex Machina. Heck, MOST of the 3rd book (I'm using the old modules) is rather shite, compared to the rather fascinating, well-set, well-plotted first 2 modules. The giant crystal 'here's where you go guys!' structures repeated to a truly silly...

The series is atmospheric, interesting, has some fantastic npcs that can be durable characters in the dm's world, but: man, I completely hated the 4th-wall breaking tone shifts when they apparently got bored in writing and decided stupid jokes would be "fun" the ending is IMO a complete...

Thanks for the memories, Rob. Great read. As a 52 year old, I too have seen that difference in society. I remember my parents cheerfully helping me load the car for me to go off to Gen Con with a friend from school and his mom they knew NOTHING about when I was maybe 13? (1980). Or running...

I don't disagree with you about encumberance, but I'd say that pretty nearly 100% of the games that came out up to, well, today, have encumberance rules that people mostly disregard anyway. That's pretty standard genre fare. I'm curious about your comment about "sorcery was borked"- it's a...

OS/2 was a better operating system than Windows in EVERY way. We're all running Windows machines and OS/2 is an historical footnote. (shrug) I would take issue about your sale-to-AH comment, in regards to the timeline. RQ was already stumbling hard (was that Chaosium's business issues?) by the...

Yeah, crazy! It's almost like he derived the RPG rules from, I dunno, tabletop gaming with miniatures? How bizarre is that?

Thanks!

Love using tent cards on your DM screen to manage combat, but sick and tired of filling them out after the 14th goblin in a row? Well, here's your answer. Tab 1 - enter the basic data, each card is one line. Was going to have it autocalc passive perception/insight, but instead left them raw...

Good point, I'm posting my Excel2007 tent card utility right now. :)

I get 404: link not found on all of those links. Is there a new version somewhere? (note, you might want to go back and edit post 1 with the freshest version each time, fyi) THANKS

The trick is to rounddown((stat)/2) and THEN subtract 5. I know, necro thread but people are building these for 5e now and it might be useful.

Original Paladin had Protection from Evil 15' radius, so yeah. Plus, nothing evil could physically touch anyone in that circle....which was either stupid-OP or (if not) nearly worthless. There were so many kludges in AD&D that this one was hardly ever even argued.
