Juggling I find DMing can prove tricky enough, what with all the balls you need to keep up in the air at the same time (each player has their own demands on your attention, and each encounter likely has an entirely new set of conditions and facets as well). With adventures you create yourself...

More / More. More everything. I'd just like to see larger books from WotC in general. They don't need to be 400+ pages, but 160/180 is just too small. I was glad to see the extra crunch added in to FR Hc's last year, but then they greatly reduced the fluff quality/quantity to do so...

Missed it by that much... Voted d8 (thinking it was "just a little off normal") but got d6. Anyone get d8 results? I was wondering what the pollsters translated that to "actually" mean... .

Tastey Like Chocolate and Peanutbuttersaurus -- two great tastes that taste great together. But I definitely wouldn't want it every time I look for something to eat! :D

Monstrosity I too was hoping for something quite different. I didn't buy the first Folio because they were doubled maps from the website. (This one was originally going to be the same but somewhere along the way they heard enough complaints they shifted the design philosophy.)...

Why not... Well, sincerely, I'd like one of each, please. (Don't care about what you call 'em.) They each have their place, and their player.

A WotC whelp I'm someone pretty suckered into accepting anything "official" without much thought. Then I look at outside sources as they are useful.

Random Acts of Madness I'm definitely all up for good, unrandomized (pre-painted) minis, on par with later WotC releases. (Heck, a good un-painted one will grab me too, although I'm waaaay behind in my painting.) Other than the Star Wars minis (which I buy initially for the...

Hoisted on Another's Poll Ditto. I don't understand why people don't think out their choices better. How many times have I been unable to find a choice that fits me! They so often seem to express the poster's opinion, not a true, unbiased poll. Personally, I definitely like the setting...

Random Madness I can't bring myself to buy those damnable randomized packs of plastics. I'll only buy mine from those stores good/smart enough to open up scads of packs and sell the figures individually (and trade people for the rares). I think it may be slightly more per figure on paper, but...

Suit Monkeys If I recall correctly, the whole idea was that of "safety". That is, "you or your little brother" (as they put it) could step on the figures and not get hurt, or break the mini. However, I agree, the plastic is awful. You have to pick through 10 to 15 loose figures to find one...

Mini-answer: Both I have a veritable tonne of metal minis primed and still waiting to be painted, and a much smaller weight that have been finished off since I started back to minis again a year or two ago. It's easy to get interrupted, taking such time and concentration to get back at the...

2 buy or Not 2 Buy Arcana Unearthed is certainly hot, and for good reason. However, at this point, you should definitely wait for the upgrade: Arcana Evolved coming out early next year. It's all the same with extras and expansions, plus colour. And it combines several books in one. That's...

An orc by any other name would still smell. Actually, I can't tell what they look like now -- their faces are always obscured by all that pie! ;) But seriously, I like to use the multi-racial/multi-strains from "Races of Faerun" to differentiate them the most. If pressed though, I've gotten...

Has the quality of the Artwork been improved any...?

Water-Shallow...? I agree. There's hesitation here as well. I am hoping for as complete a FR campaign-setting-in-a-city as we can get. Besides very thorough acountings of politics/laws, businesses, and NPCs of note, I'm really wanting this to include the closest surrounding lands, the...

History of a Gaming Life To aid the theorizing here I go: We started playing when I was about 8, first finding the game in The States and then bringing it back up to Canada quite early. There was only one place we could find in Toronto (2 hours drive) to get anything new, and there wasn't...

Titles I think we have some confusion about AU or UA... . Plus, you can't really mean AD&D do you? Is anyone still playing that. Okay, maybe I'm being picky. :D

Basic Sets Yes, here too for the "first" basic set! [as pictured first.] The DMG was just out by then, but it took a year or two until we could find the HC's in Canada. (We'd found the basic set in a cool, huge, funky toy store in the US on a family trip.) ~ALX~

Shining South HC Does anyone know exactly what lands/countries will be detailed in 'The Shining South' hardcover? So far, there isn't anything resembling detail in the official Product Description.
