    [brag] When the FLGS is confused or lazy, I score.

    Thanks, gang. I knew my puffed-out chest would be validated here. :) The 'swag bag' for the con had a 10% off coupon for the store, which isn't really that far away. I'll visit before too long; the guy at the table said "yeah, we got a ton of old used D&D stuff in decent shape, you should...

    [brag] When the FLGS is confused or lazy, I score.

    I went to a smallish, local gaming convention this weekend, and in the dealer room a local gaming store (not local to me) had a bunch of clearance stuff they were trying to get rid of. 20% off old board games, 40% off old Games Workshop models, that kind of thing. Then I asked about the "boxes...

    Tell me about these older edition D&D products [list updated: Nov 20/10]

    I'd recommend 'City System' if it's a decent price. It's tagged as a Realms product, but in reality it's a) general city-building advice and tips on running urban adventures, b) a handful of short fill-in urban scenarios, and c) papercraft buildings. If the copy they've got used has the paper...

    The "If I Owned D&D" Dream Again [rambling]

    No doubt it was a combination of day-residue from having discussed the PDF debacle combined with some dubious microwavable food before bedtime, but the other night I had that dream again. You know, the one in which I win the MegaMillions lottery and end up (somehow) buying D&D away from WotC...

    Dungeon tiles. yay or nay?

    I like WotC's Dungeon Tiles well enough, but I like the plethora of free printable tiles scattered around the net much more. Because they're free. It helps, though, that I don't draw on markable tiles. We have counters and tokens for stuff like that. I also use foldup paper scenery and room...

    Local gaming con in Baltimore area Apr 17-18

    It's called GameCon, and it's on the small side, but should be fun: Game Con 2009 - Home Tabletop stuff, lots of LARP, a 40K tournament, etc. I'm running a couple offerings of "Abraham Lincoln and the Time-Travel All-Stars Versus the Brain-Eating Nazis from Dimension X", an over-the-top...

    GameCon in Baltimore April 17-18

    Details here: Game Con 2009 - Home Lots of tabletop and LARP games, and "Cthulhu Saturday". I won't be doing anything D&D-oriented myself, but I'll be running several offerings of "Abraham Lincoln and the Time-Travel All-Stars Versus the Brain-Eating Nazis of Dimension X", a two-fisted...

    Tell me about these older edition products [old list]

    I confess I have a soft spot in my heart for the Book of Marvelous Magic, as it was the first D&D book I bought with my own money (remember those days?). It's pretty decent, especially when you consider its age. Looking at it now, there's plenty of stuff in there that's no surprise, but there...

    League of Extraordinary Gentlemen

    We did a similar riff not long ago, but with original PCs. THe 'literary' and 'TV' characters were NPCs, including: * A bitter, methodone-addled Shaggy (wherein Scooby Doo was the product of government experiments, and had gone feral and murderous) * Barbie was a cold-war era spy, eternally...

    How much money do plan on purchasing 4E/GSL products this year?

    Zero dollars, as not only are we not playing 4e, but I'm not following it.

    How much money do plan on purchasing 3E/OGL products this year?

    Less that $100, for sure. Unless I get the bug to pick up pre-Pathfinder Pathfinder stuff. Right now the only OGL/3e stuff I'm buying is used stuff I didn't pick up the first time (a penny plus shipping for Magic of Incarnum? Sure, why not). At this point I have nearly everything anyway, and...

    Your Second Love

    The Marvel Superheroes (FASERIP) game. Still one of the best intros to roleplaying, super-easy to improvise. Love, love, love the game.
