Pulp And Its Varied Identities GREAT CAESAR'S GHOST! I am stunned and rather pleasured by the debate this posting has caused! :cool: First, I would like to use a term that has been overlooked in this discussion. Formula. Lester Dent ages ago created a simple yet powerful literary formula for...

METAPLOTS ARE THE "MR. HELPER" OF GAMING GREETINGS! Boy what a feisty topic this has become! I personally don't care for the metaplot. It causes a distraction for the players and gives them a means to disrupt the workings of "your" game. Metaplots can lend themselves to the background of the...

GREETINGS! This whole article and resulting conversation is rather interesting. Perhaps even stunning. There was a time when I would roll into my local gaming outlet, peruse the shelves, and then buy something. As such I wound up with so many books I don't even use anymore. I wasted a great...

Boy! What a rhubarb we've got going! Heck, my cat looked over my shoulder, read a few posts, and promptly spat out a hairball! D&D 3.5 is about the wonders that magic giveth to the players and their imaginations. The power to shape worlds and make the magnificent happen. A low magic setting...

Hmmmm, I like the idea of "unfortunate". It bodes many great things to attach to the reason of why. Glass Hill might be the secret to solve. I could see Glass Hill being the remnants of a great magical mountain that was torn asunder during an incredible pitched battle of arcane energies that...

Pulp Noir And What It Needs GREETINGS! It seems to me that Pulp Noir as an environment concept should be much more popular than it is. Sin City might really light a fire in some of the people out there when they see the dynamics of it on the big screen. What I have observed in the darker games...

Boy Talk About Messing Things Up GREETINGS! I must say that I find all of your efforts traditonal to say the least. Even more amusing have been all of the suggestions as to what to do with Mr. Robot. First of all, any physical or energy attacks will probably have initiated enhanced...

Balancing The Bard And Cleric, Seriously Folks GREETINGS! The Complete Book of Eldritch Might does offer a much better collection of spells and powers to enhance the Bard. Keep in mind that Bards have a great deal on the access to skill checks. Role playing a Bard can be one of the most...

Balancing A Bard And A Cleric GREETINGS! I see the simplest solution as a length of plank centered on a saw horse. The teeter totter effect can be balanced by loading the pockets of the less pudgy one with stones in the event one of the two charcters is more pudgy than the other. Heh heh...

The Frankness Of It All GREETINGS! What a can of worms eh!? Nudity is meant to be enjoyed by those who can deal with it. If you can't handle it, then don't look. Now on to the meat and potatoes. I'm not so sure that images involving nudity, accuarate or not, are necessary. Were talking about...

Atlantis, Babylon, Egypt And You GREETINGS! What an intriguing topic. I tend to watch a great deal about the mysterious cultures of the past. Lets look at it this way, if it weren't for a Rosetta Stone allowing us to read ancient Egyptian, we would know very little about ancient Egypt. In...

Devious Is As Devious Does GREETINGS! I think you are missing a great opportunity to have some fun with them at the expense of them metagaming. Players when they metagame have out of game knowledge and use it in relation to what their characters do within the confines of the gaming...

Ninja Class And You GREETINGS! First and foremost ninja's had many gimmicky items. Preparedness and planning for the situation was of major significance. A good example is that scabbard of a ninja sword. It functioned not only as a scabbard, but as a place for climbing cord and a breathing...
