    New Giant D&D Minis and Star Wars Mini Pictures at GamingReport

    Just to chime in here, it would seem John Crichton is right. Places I know they've shipped D&D minis to, besides hobby stores: - Barnes & Noble - Books a Million - Borders - Suncoast Motion Picture (a division of Musicland, so Sam Goody and Media Play could potentially get them as well) I...

    Restored Faith, and Caveat Emptor - a must read for mini-buyers and WotC-doubters

    Today. Today is a good day. A *VERY* good day. I've been rabidly acquiring DnD minis since the release of Harbinger. For my lazy, slothful butt, these have been a dream come true. No painting, straight from the MM to the board. w00t. First, the Caveat Emptor - for those of you out there...

    [OT] Major Power Outages in NE USA and Canada

    A lot of reports said the cell phone network seemed dead. Most likely, when the lights went out, *everyone* tried to call somebody on their cells, and the network is overloaded. It's similar to why they were telling people not to try and call places just before Y2K. It overloads the system...

    [OT] Major Power Outages in NE USA and Canada

    CNN live is now reporting that it appears the Niagra power grid overloaded, knocking out the areas connected to it. It *seems* to be coming back up. Everyone remain perfectly calm, my simian soldiers will be at your door in minutes. WUCHT HAI!:D

    What would YOU do with a +65 Bluff?

    "I am your god. I have assumed this form to test your faith. Believe not in your eyes, but in me." "Kill yourself. I will return you to life for this show of your faith."

    Anyone Interested In NC GAME DAY II: When CAN'T you play in August?

    *mrf....* hmm? ugh, morning folks. Veddy sick righty now, so can't post much. Working August 23rd, if can get off, will be there. Not likely running game, too much going on over next couple of months. Need break. Post more later. *zzzzzzzzzz......*

    How do you kill Asmodeus in a single attack?

    [short rant] My only beef with EPIC...

    Just a quick comment on this, since I don't have my ELH in front of me: +37 permanent AC isn't that outrageous. I know that sounds insane, but if you look at some of the challenges in the ELH, the attack bonuses climb extremely high, even before any enhancements or spell-like abilities start...

    Another First Time DM needs advice

    I'd like to second this vote for Woodwind. I ran it at the NC gameday last Saturday, and it was a blast. The interior is well laid out, with a *lot* of help to the DM in terms of adjusting the adventure, and profiling the NPCs. They have a quick profile system that enables you to get a feel...

    [short rant] My only beef with EPIC...

    I have to say, that while you're absolutely right on the creativity angle, it does help with rapid character development. If you have a high-level character you've been moving along a certain path, it's nice to be able to find feats that are natural extensions of that path by just glancing at...

    [poll] Do your dungeons make logical sense?

    Other Mine make no sense at all. No euclidean sense, that is. Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn!

    Down with magic items!

    Not at all. As a matter of fact, the very existence of those tables as a necessary balancing factor to the entire game is what irks me. Sometimes. Most of the equipment in d20 modern is readily available, be you 1st or 10th level. It doesn't scale across the range that DnD magic does. It...

    Down with magic items!

    But as the others here have said, the equipment is a part of the baseline. If you ramped a fantasy DnD's magic item level up to match the amount of gear and equipment available in most modern campaigns, you'd have magic EVERYWHERE. Higher than the highest-magic of games. It integrates smoothly...
