    Help me make a Random History Events Table

    Like many of you, I find random tables useful in stimulating the creative process, as your subconscious figures out interesting ways for random results to work together. I'm a big fan of Richard Baker's "World Builder's Guidebook," a fun AD&D 2e worldbuilding book. One of the really cool...

    Best d20 products?

    Hi all, I've been a big fan of 3rd edition since it came out, but I haven't been following the d20 market as closely as I'd have liked to. School, and a lack of money. I haven't gotten many third party products. So I was thinking I'd ask you guys, what have I missed? Here is what I have...
