    Not a Poll! Who are your favourite D&D villians?

    villains eh? Hmmmmm tough choices in some cases.... Greyhawk, gotta go with Vecna here, nothing beats being an old dusty bag of bones and yet still be live and kicking. Ravenloft, Strahd Von Zarovic. Period. Dragonlance, not my favorite setting per se, but gotta go with Lord Soth here...

    Beyond High Fantasy

    Hmmm... Dark Sun comes to my mind for a Fantasy/Post-Apocalyptic setting.

    Best Sword (Or any weapon type) Fights ever?

    One on One Fight: Hmm... One on one fights are tricky since there are so many good ones out there.... I guess my favorite has to be the lightsaber fight with Luke Skywalker vs. Darth Vader from Return of the Jedi. I dont really like acrobatics in swordfights and the saber figts from the original...

    d20 with Warhammer flavor?

    I've run a couple of d20 Warhammer campaigns and for the most part the genericness of the d20 system worked to our adventage in making the atmosphere and mood become the dominant force in the campaign. Also one other advantage was that the players were all familiar with d20 and so that some...

    Warhammer?

    I ran two d20 Warhammer campaigns so far, but for some reason they all seemed to involve people/things from Far North :p Gonna run another one this summer hopefully... Oh also ran a Warhammer 40,000 adventure using some of the rules from the Inquisitor game, it works well as a full-blown RPG...

    Warhammer FRPG returning...

    Oh man this is great news, hope the boys at Green Ronin do a good job with this... would also have liked to see a WH40K RPG as well, but I guess Using Inquisitor minus the funky combat system will have to do for now

    n-slayer books by William King

    The ones about the minstrel are the Tales of Orfeo trilogy consisting of Zaragos, Plague Daemon, and Storm Warriors. I've read the first two, and to be honest I thought that the writing was choppy and not as good as well. The Konrad novels are about an orphan from the lands of the Empire, and I...

    n-slayer books by William King

    I suggest the Konrad trilogy (Konrad, Warblade, Shadowbreed) for the better insight into the grim darkness of the Old World of Warhammer and the ever present threat of Chaos. Also if you like the Warhammer 40,000 setting as well, try the Eisenhorn trilogy by Dan Abnett (Xenos, Malleus...

    Jedi, Sith, the Force...."Experts Wanted!" apply within;)

    Also when you are a powerful but are teethering on the edge of the dark side, it seems to give you impressive combat abilities... I mean look at Luke, he is a farmer with haphazard training but when Vader made him angry on the Death Star Throne Room, it didn't take too long or too much effort on...

    Best Slay-writing

    I too reccomend the Warhammer Gotrek & Felix novels by Black Library if you want heroes that go through thousands of bad guys.

    Jedi, Sith, the Force...."Experts Wanted!" apply within;)

    I think that both the light side and the dark side are of equal power, but using the light side and getting more in touch with it requires years of patience, contemplation and control. Whereas the dark side allows you to use it to the max with minimal patience and training, so seems more...

    Get dressed already! (does your mage wear robes?)

    My wizards tend to wear orinary clothes most of the time, and since I hardly ever use magical items, asides from scrolls of my own making, they do not have flashy jewelry or anything. Come to think of it, they look very plain and simple most of the time, with only pants and a shirt, and a vest...

    Jedi, Sith, the Force...."Experts Wanted!" apply within;)

    Cutting a heavily armored foe or a machine with a very very sharp sword and putting an explosive in the cut, aka pulling a Skywalker

    Jedi, Sith, the Force...."Experts Wanted!" apply within;)

    The ability to destroy a planet is insignificant... Well both the Jedi and the Sith can do a lot of stuff using the force... Some powers are universal, like sensing your surroundings, telepathy, telekinesis, and regulating the workings of your body... And since the Sith partially come from the...
