    A spammer is spoofing my domain name; advice?

    My poor ickle dwagon!

    Entangled is not equal to helpless. The party should not have been able to execute a coup de grace against the dragon. --G

    Sell me on getting a console.

    Clearly you've never played Xbox Live. I have consistently good performance. I'd say it's on par with playing online with a PC. Furthermore, the Xbox gaming experience is quite different from the PC gaming experience. I'm not sure how you can justify that statement. Sure, the hardware under...

    Cool stuff for a wyvern

    Fine. Have it your way. Just flyby and poison the target. Fly away. Wait for a while. When it drops, it's lunch time. Not as much fun, but reasonable hunting tactics nonetheless . . . think monitor lizard. --G

    Great D&D article in today's Boston Globe!

    Any bets on whether the author failed to properly take notes? I've never played in a crusade, but I've done a number of campaigns. --G

    Cool stuff for a wyvern

    Nah, make it pseudonatural. Then, when it swoops in and snatches a PC, it can use it's true strike ability and poison him/her. Then, it flies off and waits for the PC to get all soft and mushy on the inside. Then it's lunch time. Rinse, repeat. Unless, of course, you want the party to have...

    Sell me on getting a console.

    Ah, but if you're a wargamer and a Simmer, then there's one game you must have. The unstoppable goliath that is Steel Battalion. I love this game. It's the most immersive 'Mech simulator I've ever played. The only downside is the price . . . it retails for $200. But since it includes a 40...

    Conspiracies

    I've got a few conspiracies at the heart of my game, but I'm running a CoC game, so it's to be expected. --G

    On the value of Realism...

    Realism is a stupid concept for Roleplaying games. If I want realism, I'll go to work. Verisimilitude, on the other hand is critical. Without it, your players won't know what to expect. --G

    AMD or Pentium?

    This thread (http://www.enworld.org/forums/showthread.php?t=70831), while mainly discussing the P4/Celeron split, has some useful information on the subject. Ultimately, it depends on how fast you want to go though. Up to about the Athlon XP 2600+, Athlon's a better bang for your buck. Higher...

    [PC] I have an awesome wife too!

    I've been accumulating parts with which to upgrade my computer for about three months now. My target is a P4 3.0 system. I'm really close. My only concern was that my video card is a few generations old right now. Enter the wife. For Christmas, her folks gave her a decent chunk of cash...

    iTunes or Musicmatch for my PC?

    First, I highly recommend the iTrip. It's phenomenal. It allows you to reset the FM frequency your iPod broadcasts on so you can find a station with little to no interference. One note: read the directions. You've got to keep the iPod's volume between 40-80%, otherwise you get some RF...

    Need Advice on "Return of the King" game

    Shamelessly ripped from ign.com's faq on RotK, because I don't own it yet. "The main objective of this level is to kick down all the ladders with the O button, and keep the fortress from being overrun. Look at the meter in the upper-right hand corner. This is crucial. The line thingy is a...
