Has anyone seen an official answer to this question? (I have a PC running a Minotaur and am curious if this has been clarified).

Great resource thread - just got Shadows of Yog-Sothoth last week and am thinking about taking a chunk of it for an intro CofC d20 adventure for my group, and the links/suggestions on this thread are fantastic! :)

Our gaming group has an open seat for the right player in our ongoing D&D 3.5 campaign (we also run one-shot adventures and shorter campaigns). We play Saturday evenings in Brighton, Michigan generally from 5pm to midnight (we have a group dinner at 5pm to chat and catch up with the gaming...

Mark, Fantastic story hour - I really hope to see more posted and get the full details on how the campaign is going. Great job with the maps as well!

I had a BBEG use a Wish spell to bring back the party to the audience chamber they were attempting to flee from. Only one PC made his save and kept going; the rest were suddenly teleported back into the room (and a vicious fight). Same campaign, another instance: the party was trapped in a...

I agree with GoodKingJayIII and add that you mentioned that the GM is a novice: you and the rest of the group are both encouraging and enabling her to continue running you through her trashy vampire novel by showing up every week. Since she's getting positive reinforcement by your presence...

They look like standard 72 dpi web images (jpegs), so you'd have to scale them up to print them (not sure at what ratio or even if it would be consistent from one image to the next - I think you'd have to do a little trial and error). I just noticed that they look like DM maps as well with...

They've got them on WotC's website now.

I would also like to hear more of your actual play experience (picked up Expedition and am considering running it at some point and would like to see what worked / didn't work for your campaign).

...or have another group of adventurers arrive with means of getting into the tower. The adventurers could be another set of bad guys for the party to take on and pick up what they need to get out of the tower (Knock spell, a key, etc.).

Has anyone picked it up yet and taken a look at the content? Curious to see how useful it is before shelling out the cash.

I'm not sure if this answers the question, but I include themes in some adventures/campaigns that parallel or draw upon real world issues. These occasionally kick off philosophical debates between the player characters although the debates themselves aren't a part of the adventure: not "OK...

Checking out NBC's website and found this on "Hiro's Blog" (http://blog.nbc.com/hiro_blog/) which made me chuckle: Hiro (Future) STR: 14 (I'm going to have to work out more to get this) DEX: 18 (with +4 modifier) (ditto as above) CON: 12 INT: 18 (I can use magic) WIS: 17 (I survive till the...

Interesting - I thought the same thing, although: Hugh's character could have made some better choices, but if he was wise enough to avoid the two pitfalls you mentioned, well...I wonder if he would have gone down the path he did to begin with. Anyway, just my two cents...I hope it's a movie...

Sadly I'm too far away (Brighton) or I'd jump in line to sign up... :( Good luck with the campaign! :)

Old story, early 2nd edition, eons ago… The party is traveling across a large island. There are known, easily recognizable pirates operating near the island but certainly not inland. That’s important in two paragraphs. They encounter a group of young knights and camp with them. Talking...

I picked up the PDF and agree with Thomas Percy's review. The adventure felt very "traditional" in that it would be a good adventure to introduce new players to D&D with: not too complex, lots of different opportunities to investigate/role-play/kill stuff, and a lot of the action is player...

I've integrated magic into the physics of the world ("The 6 Elements"). For example: As the elements are all natural forces of the world, magic is viewed as another way in which a person can change his or her environment: while a blacksmith could expend time and sweat into creating a sword, a...

Just my two cents... We've been using the Unearthed Arcana armor as DR rules (which basically means half the AC rating is converted to DR, so characters have lower AC's and just about everyone has at least a point or two of DR). We've played just shy of a year (26 adventures) from 1st to...

I completely agree. I don't care for the SR mechanic: it feels like a legacy mechanic that could be handled much better through SDR (spell damage reduction) or something similiar. For spells that don't do damage but have an on-going effect, give those creatures the ability to make additional...
