    Fixes for Mage: Sorcerer's Crusade magic?

    It's been a long while since I played any Mage, but it seems like you're on the right track, especially with your first idea. Also, what about some story/world restrictions? What if the other ship has a mage casting protective spells or casting their own spells on the PCs ship? What if using...

    Rocket thrust and ground level

    Nope. You can read here and here for more info than you probably want. ;)

    What Are You Listening To?

    I've been listening to Avantasia's two new albums, Angel of Babylon and The Wicked Symphony. Unfortunately, I'm a bit disappointed. They're both very good, but none of the tracks have really stood out. I love the title track from the previous album, The Scarecrow, but nothing on these two albums...

    [June] What are you reading?

    Now that I have finished The Name of the Wind, I am going to read The Terror by Dan Simmons (well, when I can squeeze time in between reading for school).

    Yet another music thread, but this one's a little different...

    I would try Pandora. You would have to build your own stations, but it might be worth your while. You could build a town station, wilderness station, battle station, and so on.

    New podcast for gaming

    I enjoyed it. I'll continue to listen. I think the only advice I would give is to do something about the dogs. That was distracting. Other than that, it was good stuff. :cool:

    [June] What are you reading?

    I'm not quite a third of the way through it, but I'd still say it is well worth your time. I just wish the next book was out. It gets even better with A Storm of Swords, but does dip a bit in quality with A Feast for Crows. Still, the worst of ASoIaF is far better than most of the fantasy...

    The Hobbit in Limbo: No Mo Del Toro

    Actually, now that I think about it, Alfonso Cuarón (Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, Children of Men) would be a fine fit for The Hobbit.

    Forest Gump Question

    Don't believe the marketing hype from the divine casters. It was clearly a wizard casting an illusion spell.

    [June] What are you reading?

    The Name of the Wind - Patrick Rothfuss. It is excellent so far.

    The Hobbit in Limbo: No Mo Del Toro

    Oh, I agree. I'm just trying to think of which director would be right for the job assuming the legal wrangling gets worked out. Yes, there are some talented directors out there but which one is right for this job?

    What Are You Listening To?

    I agree. I'm going to have to pick up an album or two.

    The Hobbit in Limbo: No Mo Del Toro

    I read this over on AVClub and it sucks. I was really looking forward to his vision of Middle Earth. Any other ideas for good directors on this project? I'm coming up blank at the moment.

    Forest Gump Question

    A wizard did it.

    D&D + CoC

    I just saw this new pdf advertised on the front page that updates the UA incantations to Pathfinder - Incantations in Theory and Practice. I haven't read it myself, but it might be worth checking out for something like this.

    LOST: The Final Season (Spoilers)

    I find myself agreeing with much of what James Poniewozik had to say here on his blog at Time.

    If it's the DM's job to make sure the players have fun...What is the PLAYER'S job?

    To: Clearly communicate which spells they have cast. Know what color their character's eyes are. Know where to find the Mountain Dew. Know where their character is in relation to the other characters. Cast magic missile at the darkness. Creep out any girls in the area (in the game or not). Not...
