Book out. I'm sure you guys all know this by now but Margaret sent this via the mailing list today: Dear friends, We finally have the new website up and running! We are selling only one book as of now, but we'll be adding more soon. If you would like an autographed copy of the DLCS, you can...

At the risk of hijacking the thread (sorry 'bout that!), it is a two-edged sword. Our group had what I consider an awesome DM. But if you have whiney players who believe that the game is not so much collaborative fiction between a DM and group of players but is there for their enjoyment and ONLY...

I actually like the books detailing the 'tiny regions' and find them extremely useful: I can read a lot about an area and create a PC with a well-developed persona. I like tossing in vague references to published history and my DM typically responds favorably to this sort of thing.. However, I...

I know that pain.. My wife and I also met on a MUSH but I was from a different HEMISPHERE - let alone state... And the real irony is that she is most definately NOT a gamer. She had never MUSH'ed before and has never MUSH'ed since. Perhaps I soured her on the whole gaming experience! Play once...

Actually, I have a flight to Tuscon from Omaha at the crack of dawn tomorrow morning so I was saving it up to devour on the flight... it's awful of me but I am sure others here will also have theirs and be able to post. I DID, however, fiddle about with the 'Pick Your Path' DVD they included...

Kipper/Sean, Just a quick note to say I've always liked your take on Kender mages. It seemed to me to be rational and logical. I will be particularly interested to see what Chris has done with them - being another one who thinks they are just great in any campaign. Bela

Yes. Mine arrived in the mail today.

I tend to agree. In the dark days following the Cataclysm, steel blades would be far more valuable than golden trinkets - and that would have translated into a reversal of the typical understandings of wealth. This would have become the norm and lead to the situation you describe where a...

I like the whole saying of "He ate his pay" meaning that he took a sword in the gut. I like the steel currency. It's no big deal, I suppose, one way or the other but it's the little things that give DL its own unique flavor and add to versimilitude... glad to hear that these 'Krynnisms' are with...

Wow, we're at 48,800 odd posts just in this part of the board and will probably hit 50000 this weekend. That boggles my mind. Thanks, Morrus, for providing such an excellent forum for ideas and conversation. I appreciate all your hard work here to make this THE place to hang out on the Net...

We are David of Borg. Your biological distinctiveness will be added to our own. Resistance is futile! Beladavid

Good deal, in my book.. Love him or hate him, his books did help define the realms and it is certainly better than having some corporate schill writing! Hopefully, he will be open to new talent and fresh ideas and it won't become the R.A. Salvatore storyhour. Here's hoping we have an awesome...
