    Free Free Trader / Grendel: starship deckplan poster

    Since the first one was so successful, I am running a second Kickstarter campaign to turn another of my favorite Future Armada ships into a 24x36, double sided poster featuring miniature-scale deckplans and detailed renderings. Details (and video) are here: Kickstarter: 'Free Trader /...

    Thank you! I have high hopes for this - just need to figure out how to let people know about it without becoming that which I hate (that is, a spammer). For other people who might have the same question, I have found a couple other places: Giant in the Playground has a Kickstarter thread...

    I just launched my first ever Kickstarter campaign to produce a starship deckplan poster. It's designed for any sci-fi RPG. Specifically I thought it would be perfect for the Serenity RPG setting but when I went looking for the old Cortex forums, I found that they were gone. Ditto for some of...

    My new DIY portable digital tabletop roleplaying map!

    The periscope mount uses 3 parts for sale at mountdirect.com: 1 NPL Series Projector Ceiling Mount ($45) 1 NPL Long Adjustable Column Extension Pipe (range of extension 35"-42") ($50) 1 NPL Extension Elbow ($20) Those parts all just screw together. The only custom bit is the 25 lb weight I...

    My new DIY portable digital tabletop roleplaying map!

    I usually put a hand towel beneath the weight - though felt is a good idea too. I did notice a lot of vibration from table bumps. The single pole seems to magnify that, though the towel did a good job reducing the jitter. If the jitter was too severe at the game table, I was thinking of adding...

    My new DIY portable digital tabletop roleplaying map!

    Inspired by this thread, I've constructed my own tabletop projection rig. I'm using the same BenQ projector (and I really appreciate the info on it) but with a "Periscope" stand that better suits my lack of tools and mechanical knowhow. Here's an image of the setup...

    My new DIY portable digital tabletop roleplaying map!

    The projector you use has a Zoom Ration of zero. Does that mean that you cannot change the size of the projection area except by moving the projector up and down? EDIT: I did some more research and I'm pretty sure that's what it means. Of course, with your set up it's not an issue because the...

    My new DIY portable digital tabletop roleplaying map!

    Thank you for the answers - I might actually look into trying this out as I could also use the projector for work (no, really) and movies at home. I also really appreciate that you did the research to find a good projector - that's usually where I get bogged down.

    My new DIY portable digital tabletop roleplaying map!

    It would connect to your computer (most likely a laptop for convenience) and then it displays whatever your monitor displays (though I think many projectors have a "freeze" option where they'll lock the image projected while you mess around with your computer using the normal screen. I've only...

    My new DIY portable digital tabletop roleplaying map!

    I have a lot of digital maps that are "poster sized" (24x36), or a little bigger. To increase the size of the image projected onto the table, would you just have to build a bigger rig (to raise the projector up a bit higher and move the legs out), or are there other limitations? I don't really...

    Broken Ranger with Barbarian MC

    I'm new to this, but I don't understand how, even at paragon, you can use a multi-class at-will power at will (other than being a half elf with that feat). Could someone explain that part to me?

    How do you explain overnight Healing in your game?

    "This is just a game." "We're only playing to have fun and realism is not fun." and "Feel free to house rule it." are all just different ways of saying "I don't have a good answer for your critisism. This game has some serious flaws but I refuse to see them."

    Ritual Ranges

    I'm wondering if, for a ritual that lists no range, there is a default value that should be used. Last night, for example, I wanted to use a Knock spell and was curious as to whether I needed to be up touching the door. I then wanted to create a hallucinatory item and needed to know if I could...

    How we Speed up our Encounters -- what about you?

    If we do something so that encounters take about half as many rounds as normal, should we also turn all "Encounter" powers into "Milestone" powers? Is there a significant power increase if PCs have encounter powers available for most rounds of a fight, instead of just a few?
