    I Need Advice From D&D Folks...

    The 'pointy stick' plan is the funniest thing I've read in ages. I suppose you just have to decide whether to please everyone, or to keep making a comic of D&D-humour. I hope you decide on the latter. Also, remember that the Internet is full of immature people of all ages who enjoy venting...

    What 2nd ed AD&D Adventures are the Best? List them here! (Darksun, Dragonlance, etc)

    Dragonlance? I absolutely hate adventures that are too closely tied to a series of gamefiction. I don't need Riverwind and Goldmoon to turn up in all my DL adventures, thank you very much. There is one I remember as one of the best modules ever though: DLS2 - Tree Lords A bit unusual in that...

    Complete books - too much feat- and PrC material?

    That's how it works here as well. That's where I'm a bit more restrictive, precisely because I see PrCs as a tool to help build the setting. Things just become weird if every character has some sort of PrC without good reason. Most knightly orders in my campaign consist of fighters, clerics...

    Complete books - too much feat- and PrC material?

    True, not really expecting the same sort of material as in books that are meant for the DMs either. I try to encourage player-participation in creating the world as well. This is actually a quite good idea for one way that would work. :) What I meant was that I'm not one of those DMs who will...

    Complete books - too much feat- and PrC material?

    I'm not among those who have unlimited funds for RPG stuff, especially if I want a life besides games and my studies, so have to consider seriously the use I expect to get out of every purchase. I never play D&D as a player, but am always the DM. Specifically I'd like to get some input from...
