Perpetual d20 motion? That's something. Let's just hope it comes up a 20 eventually. I couldn't even guess at how many I've rolled, but it must be in excess of 20,000. I can't recall how long I've been playing role-play games (i.e. I don't know when I started), but I've been pretty loyal to...

Savage Worlds: Pirates of the Spanish Main and lots of 4th Edition D&D, with splat in liberal quantities.

I don't see that their role has changed in the slightest, aside from a marked increase in usefulness in a fight. I entirely disagree with the suggestion that the Rogue is any less of the skill-monkey it once was and I think if anyone is suggesting that the Rogue has forgotten its thief roots...

I've had a few good experiences with the Book Depository, but recently they've been slipping a bit. I've had two or three cancelled orders (after, I note, I receive an e-mail telling me my order is being packed) with little explanation. Amazon also keeps delaying (I'm also in the UK). I think...

I'm a member of a local University gaming society, and our internet forum reckons that the ratio of males to females registered there is roughly 3:1. Now, a good deal of those are no longer active users and by my (admittedly unscientific) reckoning, that portion of the society is more often...

I agree. And in a half-serious sense, too.

I like the last point especially. I feel that my D&D groups are suddenly going to find themselves being pelted with little arrows from time to time.

I have to say, whilst Sellswords is by no means the worst adventure I've seen, it's not exactly a scintillating example of adventure design. I've read it rather than run it, although I intend to do the latter at some stage. There are some problems (maps far too cramped, treasure placement a...

I've only just started using Dungeon Tiles, having used a drywipe grid mat for a long time. I'm actually quite impressed with the quality (and the quantity) of dungeon tiles. I only bought two packs, but already I have more dungeon scenery than I could ever use. I'm now looking for some...

My hearty support for this thread. I love D&D, in all its forms, and I'm sick to the teeth of edition wars and accusations of there being a "4th Edition crowd" and so on - it's like being in a cheesy high-school drama. In all honesty, I don't really care one way or another what Wizards do with...
