    Dreadmire? Swamp Sourcebook

    This looks interesting. I have zero interest in any flamewars or gripes this book has provoked but I am interested in reading a detailed and impartial review. I like swamp settings and have used them in my own adventures (published and unpublished) so it's certainly something I'll check out if...

    TSR Q&A with Gary Gygax

    Heh, I was more generous and allowed just such a "barbarian prince" unordered Avatar some years back in one of our early campaigns. His name was Clannarg Tyg and he packed a punch in combat with a combination of Savagery, Physique and Chivalry. IIRC his background set him up as the son of a...

    Hall of Many Panes

    Okay, with the caveat that I think the adventure is best run as it is, here are some thoughts on how to pull it apart and run each pane separately from the whole: A lot of the adventures can be run with very few changes to their set up. Have the party hired to perform a certain task, change...

    Hall of Many Panes

    Just to clarify things, the adventures are very varied, some test the wits of the players, some the mechanics of the PCs, but most do both :eek: Jon

    Hall of Many Panes

    Hi S'mon :) As noted in the pane's introduction the Krolykki and Auwat warriors are modelled on those led by Tamerlane (Timur a’ling) and are intended to be a tough and frightening bunch. Well, the equipment is much like that one would expect such warriors to have. If you want to equip...

    Hall of Many Panes

    Hi Thundershot :) There are some panes where the party are transformed into different things (animals, acorns, breezes, veshoges etc) but they represent only a handful of adventures out of a very large bunch of scenarios. Personally, they are amongst my favourites but of course everyone's...

    Hall of Many Panes

    Thanks S'Mon :D C&C was but a twinkle in a troll's eye back then ;) We decided on 8th level to best capture the scope of the material, there are some tough challenges!! By "stat block problem" do you mean the relative lack of magical gear? I don't see that as a problem myself but ymmv...

    Hall of Many Panes

    Hi S'Mon :) I did think of changing some of the CRs but in the end decided it might cause confusion and settled on the general advice to lower them by 1 where the DM felt it appropriate. Cheers! :D Jon

    Hall of Many Panes

    Hi gang! :) As the chap who prepared the d20 material for HOMP, with the highly beneficial assistance of John Troy and Craig Peters, I thought I ought to chime in on this thread. Firstly, to anyone having queries in regard to any aspect of the d20 material, please feel free to email me at...

    How many soldiers could a kingdom realistically muster?

    In his Lejendary Earth sourcebook NOBLE KINGS & DARK LANDS Gary Gygax gives figures for the armed forces of each kingdom. The first % is the total number of armed individuals in the land who, in theory at least, could be called upon to provide military service. This figure ranges from 5-8% for...

    Christians and DnD

    Chick represents an extremist form of Christianity :\ . Most Christians are reasonable folk with reasonable opinions but it is the crackpots who get all the attention :confused: . Becuase of folk like Chick non-Christians can get the impression that Christianity itself is at fault :( ...
