    D&D Minitures from GenCon

    There were three promo miniatures given out at Gen Con. One was an elf ranger (Gencon1), one a lizardfolk (Gencon2), and the last an orc archer (Gencon3). The other notation (Any 5) is the lizardfolk's point cost. While I do think the fact that these are promo minis affect their...

    I answered you, man. Give me at least a few minutes. There are many questions, and only one of me. :cool:

    About Living Campaigns and Living Dragonlance

    We have already made steps to incorporate D&D Miniatures into our events. Each Legacy of the Green Regent adventure has a list of miniatures from future lines we suggest for play. We are going to use the miniatures extensively in our delve-style events, and we are looking into introducing a...

    About Living Campaigns and Living Dragonlance

    Well, I for one definitely want to see you run something for an ENWorld gameday. While this is not my typical role in the RPGA to check up on this sort of thing, feel free to contact me at srm@wizards.com, and I will see what I can do. I look forward to it, Piratecat!

    About Living Campaigns and Living Dragonlance

    Re: Re: About Living Campaigns and Living Dragonlance This statement actually explains a lot, and presents a good opportunity for me to get upon a soapbox and explain some of the RPGA inner workings. For those of you who don't know, the RPGA is an organized play organization supporting D&D...

    About Living Campaigns and Living Dragonlance

    I am not angry about it. I was just a little shocked. Being the person who does the content budget here at Wizards of the Coast for the RPGA, I wanted to make sure that everyone knew that there were no plans for it. Because no budget = no plans. I was concerned because such news would cause...

    About Living Campaigns and Living Dragonlance

    On the front page I noticed this on the Sunday news items attributed to Jamie Chambers from the Mortality Radio interview. To be frank, I was very shocked to see this, as right now the RPGA has no plans to do either campaign. I am not sure where Jamie is getting this information, but it is...

    Worst DM Quotes at Gencon

    Hiya back there, Piratecat. And that Cat's got the right attitude here. Playing and GMing at Cons only strengthens the craft of playing and playing well. And while I have never had the pleasure of playing with Piratecat at an RPGA event, I have only heard fantastic things about his play style...

    Worst DM Quotes at Gencon

    While I am not the architect of the GMs program (that would be Ian Richards the RPGA Program Manager) I am involved with the new GM program and its design. We used to have a rate the GM section to session scoring, which gave feedback from the players. The feedback was tied to the old scoring...

    Worst DM Quotes at Gencon

    The cards, DUNGEONS & DRAGONS Campaign Cards, are available through the DUNGEONS & DRAGONS PLAYER REWARDS program, a kind of free add-on to the RPGA membership (see www.wizards.com/rpga for details). Basically the more you play and report RPGA games and events, the more cards you can earn. There...

    Worst DM Quotes at Gencon

    We haven't had a scoring system in Living campaigns for a while now…treasure doesn't just vanish (unless the author makes a math mistake, which happens); it's divided at the end of the adventure (either by the adventure or by the players). No offense Storm Raven, I appreciate your attempt to...

    Worst DM Quotes at Gencon

    Different than what you are used to? Yes. Stupid? No. On first glean this is commonly the reaction, but Living Greyhawk and other Living campaigns are not home games. You don’t always play with the same group of people. So when you defeat an enemy and take there stuff, you usually have few...

    Worst DM Quotes at Gencon

    Don't let this thread stop you. Find a DM you know you like and have him or her run it as a home game. RPGA games aren't just for conventions.

    Worst DM Quotes at Gencon

    :::shakes head::: Sorry. The only saving grace is that you benefited from DM error rather than died from it. Still, I am sorry to hear that an RPGA DM didn’t know about armor check penalties and the taking off armor rules. Thanks for the feedback, though. Stuff to take with me when we start...

    WotC before Hasbro. The way we were.

    Agreed, Darrin, agreed.

    penalty for cheating

    This is someone you game with, a buddy, a friend, someone who shares the same fun thing you do. While there is a part of me that says get rid of the bastard ;-) it seems to me that what you want to give him is a warning that such behavior is not cool. That warning should carry a message "this is...

    What does the go D20 ruling mean for the living campaigns?

    The business logic is simple, and a mainstay for every company with a business plan—know your market, support that market, and trim the fat where you can in lean years. We know what people are playing through our reporting. Less than 1% of the membership is playing non-d20 System games. As for...

    What does the go D20 ruling mean for the living campaigns?

    I highly disagree with this statement. One of the chief reasons contributing to the decision to drop non-d20 System games was the fact that fewer and fewer RPGA members were playing these adventures. In this way we have adopted the focus that our member’s play pattern has already made a virtual...

    D&D Player Rewards via the RPGA

    Re: What about Judges & Coordinators? There are plans under way for a GM reward program as part of the general RPGA GM Program. I can’t talk about them openly yet, because the program is not complete. But it will be pretty cool. With that said, GM/organizer burnout is a problem that can’t be...
