Chessex Mats serve a simple but useful function: providing a nice surface for your combat visualization. Description / Criteria for Review: I own the smaller of the two mats, which I bought for $12. The mat is thin laminated organic material, a pleasent beige color. On it is a clearly printed...

Shouldn't someone complaining about rude posting work especially hard to avoid making personal attacks regarding the subjects of the complaint?

Post the entire program. Also, in the future, avoid single-letter variables except for use with iterators (1,2,3). Just name the variable according to what it stores, and debugging your code gets a world easier.

And here's an example of his viewpoint, taken from the second paragraph of his review. He's coming strictly from the fanboy camp ("haters"), and isn't a good point of reference for those who disliked the previous two movies.

I love the non-system stuff in the books. It's superb, and really an excellent resource. I ditched the Clancyesque, Spycraft-based system for something way simpler, though. Seems I'm not alone here, either.

I dig on the Ronin Arts and Expeditious Retreat Press. Not to say that I buy everything they do (really, who could, with Ronin Arts), but I've really enjoyed the stuff I've bought.

First, thanks much for the replies. This is exactly the kind of information I'm looking for. You're both right about my Dodge feat question. It's poorly worded. Let me try again: Armor and size-modifiers are easy to remember because it doesn't change over the course of a combat. Hence, a...

My play group moved on from 3.x to other systems because we grew tired of not getting the game right and combat taking too long. Every combat was a balance between fast playtime with errors, and minutes spent looking stuff up or confirming how things work. Our house rule/reminder document grew...

For more non-d20 news: Hero Games is encouraging direct sales from their website over local game stores. They released Hero System 5th edition Revised, if you like the Hero System, have been curious to jump in, want the errata and updates incorporated into your corebook, or simply want the...

Mad love for Katamari Damacy. It both invented a style of gameplay and then dominated it. I haven't enjoyed a console game this much in a long, long time. Flawless victory. -Clint

My group has played it and loved it. It's a great system that takes very little time to learn and is a lot of fun to play. And yes, it'll be great for spec ops versus zombies.

Thanks, all. I'm excited to hear how the reprint ends up! :)

I buy pdfs. I love having corebooks as pdf for quick searching. I also love buying niche supplements and one-off weirdness. I will not buy pdf at full printed retail price. I will never buy DRM content of any kind. I'm very happy with RPGNow, especially since they eliminated minimum checkout...

This is just a guess, but I think that most of the people coming to C&C are coming from 3.x, and make threads saying: "Finally, a lighter version of modern D&D!" Then the fans of 3.x read this and say: "What's wrong with my favorite game? No, your favorite game sucks!" Hilarity ensues.
