Hmmm I'll have to get up into the loft to count stuff in storage, after all it doesn't all fit on the five bookshelves I have assigned for RPG stuff. This could take a while to get an accurate count. I take it modules count as a book, our not just looking for hardbacks. Most of it isn't D&D...

If you look hard enough I'm sure you could find some recent murder or suicide "linked" to D&D or roleplaying in some way. I know there were some in Italy a couple of years ago and I think one in Spain last year. The problem is the link seems to highlight one issue and forgets about the others...

My statement is still valid if not more so. Why do you think the general population think D&D is evil? But that really isn't really your question. Perhaps if you had phrased your question better we wouldn't be in this mess. I don't know why your interested in the stuff from the 80's when it's...

Well your question is in that case flawed. Since I've not seen much evidence that the general population believes D&D to be evil. I didn't see any of the general population protesting out-side my cinema when it showed Dungeons and Dragons the movie (although perhaps there were some roleplayers...

From what I've seen of the Speed table I'm confused as to how it will work in game. So for one rank in speed I can double my combat movement, two ranks is all you really need tactically to be able to cover the whole "battlemat" in your turn. Then its not really worth any other ranks expect 6...

Hmm I'm interested but looking at the content... We have 8 preview or excerpts from different companies, sounds like long adverts to me, I imagine most of this information is not useful to someone not using that companies setting. Three works of fiction, which aren't exactly what you call...

Oh well in that case I usually roll play between the levels of 1 and above, unless I'm in a system without levels. Isn't it time someone started a poll to see if we should bring back the announcement about too many polls?

What is the point in this poll? If you asked me a fortnight ago then it would have been Mid-Level, since the group I was DM'ing for had just got to 8th level. Ask me last week and we were playing Cyberpunk which doesn't even have levels. This weekend I'm playing a 3rd level character. The...

So is everybody happy now? I get DM burn out every now and again but thankfully nearly everyone in our group is up for running a game so we rotate every few months. Also one of our players works shifts so can't always make game nights. Real life is going to muck up your games its something...

A Necromunda gang or Inquisitor type game would be your best option. Inquisitor is almost halfway between an RPG and a Wargame although it lacks decent character generation rules or any balance (Not that balance is required for an RPG).

I'm not too fussed.

My "Other not mentioned" was combining a reach weapon in my case a Glaive, with Combat Reflexes. I find this really handy being a Dwarf as the extra 5ft reach helps offset my reduced movement, and also means I can cover a wide corridor single-handed and stop charging monsters getting to the...

The deal with Arkham is that it was the location of where many of Lovecraft's books were based. Home to the Arkham Asylum and the Misskatonic University. Innsmouth was another classic CoC town, with a large number of the population being the offspring of Deep One/Human interaction. Kingsport...

Does your party scare out the treasure or is it "finders keepers" on that too? Do the wizards and clerics keep all the magic items as they are the only people that can detect them therefore they must be for them.
