    Adventures in Antarctica

    Warehouse23, Very cool stuff. I had a friend in the Washington State Air Guard who would go down there in the summer (Antarctic summer) to work on their networks. I was in the Washington Air Guard and well and was a network tech and I must say, very envious of what he did. Thanks for the...

    Inspirational Fantasy Movies

    Hehehe, how could I forget about Ice Pirates? What a classic! I also like Battle Beyond the Stars and Logan's Run if I'm in more of a Sci Fi mood. How about Land of the Lost? Or the Tarzan TV series? Or my favorite Sid and Marty Krofft Bigfoot and Wildboy :lol:! When I was a freshman in...

    Moorcock blasts Tolkien

    I’ve been (and still am) a fan of both Moorcock AND Tolkien ever since I was old enough to be interested in fantasy. Equally, I like C.S. Lewis as well as Robert E. Howard. I think there is plenty of room in the fantasy field for complex issues dealing with shades of grey; protagonists who may...

    Tell me about the 1E AD&D DMG

    Yep, I'm jealous! OTOH, Gary states that he is still perfectly willing to autograph items if you send them to him with a self addressed return envelope. I'm seriously considering this. As to the 1e DMG; having grown up playing 1e, I consider it the best of all the editions (of course YMMV...

    Frukathka, that sounds cool. Post a pic of it I'd love to see it! Here's a couple of more for those who haven't checked out my gallery link in my signature. The first is for those Arcana Unearthed fans out there, it is my litoran greenbond Kehlbin Flameleaf and the second is just a doodle I...

    Would you play D&D if the sacred cows were sacrificed?

    I voted for mostly hate it. Even if it was a great game, it just wouldn't be D&D. But then again, I'm not sure I'd really care all that much because I'd have all of the earlier editions that I already like to play (like 1e).

    Inspirational Fantasy Movies

    Pretty much all of my favorites were covered. I'm glad to see Robin of Sherwood mentioned. I just got the special edition boxed set a few months ago and I'm glad I did. That was perhaps the best take on Robin Hood I've ever seen and really gets me in the mood for a 1e gamefest. I also like...

    I just finished some peices for a couple of 1e modules for the guys at Dragonsfoot. If you are a fan of 1e stuff and haven't checked out that site, I'd highly recommend that you do. They have some great material that is FREE to download. Check them out here: www.dragonsfoot.org. I've been a...

    If you were to play a version of pre-3.0 D&D, which would it be?

    I like them all but my personal preference is for 1e.

    How do you pronounce "dweomer"?

    For whatever reason, I say it like Dew-oh-mer. For some reason, I can't wrap my mind around any other way to say it.

    Was EN World down over the last couple of days?

    I am in Okinawa, Japan and I am having problems accessing the site from home but I can from work. I've tried it on both my desktops (one is a Win XP box and the other is a Linux box) and have had no success. I've even tried on my laptop from home using an entirely different connection and...

    I can't help but wonder--how many AD&D 1e players ARE there out there?

    I currently don't have a group as I have moved overseas and not managed to get another one started. However, not long ago when I actively played, I played 3e but we also played 1e (my game of choice). I still actively buy material for 1e from ebay as well as the new stuff being produced. In...

    What is the best game to capture that old 1E AD&D feel? - Please state why.

    I voted for other. As others have stated, if you want to play 1e, then play 1e. C&C is a great game and I don't want to take anything away from it, but it is not 1e. There is also a lot of new material being put out for 1e now with OSRIC and the works of people at Dragonsfoot, Pied Piper...

    Varianor, Thanks! Hopefully the illustration board I ordered from the States will be here this weekend. I've got a few paintings I want to do. I also want to do some more action shots. I've got an OSRIC project that I'm working on which will have quite a few of my illustrations in it.
