On Magnum P.I. it popped up a few times that Higgins was a big war gaming buff. I always thought it would be cool to have the kind of space and resources he did to devote to it :)
Registered, posted and tinkered around over there already, TRDG. It looks to have a lot of potential. Can we try to get together via FB chat to discuss details of the game, i.e. your view on gunpowder, what classes, races, abilities are open or off the table?
I'm interested in joining you. Can you send me a PM with more information please? I'm another old time gamer that is looking for a new start after a long time away.
I'm of the opinion that a gaming group is a type of team, with everyone able to play a role; whether it's as a star or a supporting character - everyone is part of the story. If someone is so self-absorbed that they don't care about the story you're all telling collectively, then they don't...
Hi there! How are you today? Thanks for taking the time to pop in here and read what I have to say. I'm a 42 yr old gamer that was a HUGE player in my teens but drifted away as I got older and TSR continued to pump out settings. I continued to read fantasy novels and started playing video rpgs...
I think a perfect example of how this should be dealt with can be found in almost all of Glen Cook's fantasy settings. The characters may be badasses but it's a big, ancient world and they don't have a monopoly on the secrets of success. We RPGers tend to think of our feats and dmg output as the...
I look at it as a case of something being stated (golem spell immunity) prior to the creation/invention of the exception which then makes it obsolete or untrue, rather than the author missing something that big. Personally, I like including the spells because, as an old-timer, I've grown tired...
It's a Ring of Communication (Beholder) that allows the wearer to understand the alien imagery of a beholder's thoughts. The rings were originally developed by mages seeking knowledge of outsider and abomination society.
Hi there! I'm a 42 yr old long time player/GM looking to either join a current group or form a new one with some interested, mature gamers. I'm interested in D&D 1st-3.5 Editions, Pathfinder, Conan, and The Black Company. My schedule is very flexible and I'm open to live or online sessions. I...
Dwarves mounted on ponies. I'm sure lots of posters here would add gnomes and halflings to that list, but it's driven me nuts for years to only find dwarves riding bears or rams :(
I prefer to see undead as having two types; one which has been created by infusing a dead body with a single-minded otherwordly entity - which is best expressed by skeletons and zombies; and two, an undead creature that has resulted from the original creature's spirit either being unable, or...
It would depend on the size of the adventurers. If they're tall, husky warriors or smaller than an average sized dwarf, then they're going to have to make a trip to the local smithy to make some alterations, but if they're average sized individuals odds are good they can slap on any pieces they...
