Logistic and priorities. There may be more than that. I don't sit in those meetings. I only work on D&Di when an assignment or a deadline pops up. I have heard some discussion on the subject, but probably no more than 1% of the total discussion there has been on the subject. I am by no means an...

This is not a consideration at all. Dungeon Tiles just about sell themselves, even with maps on the market or for download.

I agree, especially one that supports the set of Dungeon Tiles I just designed. We can get Bulmahn's set in there too.

I'm not sure. But holy crap I didn't realize the secondary market was selling these tiles for that much of a markup (I am looking at the vendors at Amazon). ::Blink, blink:: I think I might go talk to the Rouse on Monday, though I am sure he's already on top of it (he usually is by the time I...

Well, we do sell adventures with maps. The number of maps that are in Dungeon Delve would have easily doubled or tripled the price of the product. Dungeon Tiles on the other hand are versatile and almost infinitely reusable. While I am not knowledgeable about the exact numbers, I am pretty...

Hi Daniel, I know it was a goal in the development of Dungeon Delve to simplify all the delves so they required only one set of tiles. While that could not be achieved with some of the larger area (see "Shadowfell Schism" page 162 as one example) those areas that require more than one set are...

Hi Mark, and thanks for posting. I received your book for Christmas, devoured it, and have now passed it on to some of my coworkers. Page after page of The Elfish Gene reminded me of my own childhood here in the States. The emotion and the sense of wonder you describe when you discover the...

Rouse, you owe me a small part of your soul, since your little act of "sharing" destroyed a small part of mine. Just drop it off by my cube. Thanks! B-)

Close, but not quite. I imagine it’s inspired by it, though. Ed's quote from issue 75 (or at least the last section of that quote) is: ..."You have joined an endless battle, my lord. Bit if you weary of fighting it here, amid that which you hold dear, then come with me—I ride on the hells...

Fun! If you are a total design and development geek when it comes to games, or you are like me and absolutely love Pandemic, or you are really like me and fall into both of these categories, this is a must watch. Matt Leacock talks about Pandemic It's long, but it's well worth it.

I played it for the first time this week during lunch, and found myself instantly hooked. Picked it up Friday, and I have already played three games of it with my wife. I am looking forward to playing it again today. Smart, smart, smart, and fun game. I love how simple, fast, and challenging...

Ah. I know the feeling. B-)

Why?

WoW...and I mean wow. This past Friday I picked up a starter and a booster for the WoW minis game. I had heard some good things about it, but found myself pleasantly surprised to be strolling back into my FLGS the very next morning to pick up 4 more boosters. There are some surprisingly...

I am also running in Greyhawk. We recently converted my Age of Worms campaign to 4e. We did a pretty loose conversion when it came to the PCs. For instance, the human cleric of St. Cuthbert became a dragonborn paladin of St. Cuthbert. The character has the same personality, the same...

In the recent past I've picked up the following board or boardish game. Wings of War BattleLore Cold War: CIA vs. KGB Citadels Monsterpocalypse Hey! That's My Fish Of these games, I'd already played a good amount of BattleLore, so I knew I would like that game. I just wanted to pick up the...

Great Kids' Game...Great Game Period! A friend of mine from Catalina turned me on to a game, currently published by Mayfair, that's just brilliant. "Hey! That's My Fish!" (sometimes just called "the Penguin Game", or "Pingvinas" in Lithuania, were it was designed and first released) is a...

Exactly. While we suggested that you might want to start a new campaign, but many of us are playing in campaigns that started with 3.5. I play in a 4e Pathfinder (Rise of the Runelords) that started in 3e. I just recently converted my online Age of Worms campaign to 4e.

I never said (or even implied) world building couldn't create fun. I absolutely said that world building shouldn't trump fun. I've seen a lot of games where the DM let world-building trump fun...and games where terribly un-fun circumstance were justified by making the world more...

Over my many years of dealing with the D&D fan base, the one thing I'm certain of is their ability to forge their own opinions. :lol:
