    The DDXP are you seeing the elephant or just the tail?

    I really hope you're right, Miar. I was not able to attend, but three of my players went. These are guys that have been playing in my weekly campaigns for more than twenty years and I value their opinions. All three were pro-4e. All three are also pro-MMO so the complaints that 4e leans in that...

    Why _DON'T_ You Buy Dragon Magazine?

    Ditto... for the most part I agree with a lot of points made here, but many of the things people wish for are more DM material which now belongs in Dungeon - and the reason almost everyone is saying "...but I do buy Dungeon!" I still do buy Dragon but like many of the other posts I read (I...

    The Realm of Quindia

    I created the Forgotten Realms style maps using CorelDraw and a lot of effort. Most of the other maps were done by hand. I've made a living as a freelance illustrator for about ten years and have always put a lot of effort into the maps for my games. Check back once in a while. I have a ton of...

    The Realm of Quindia

    www.quindia.com The Realm of Quindia has been the basis for my fantasy role playing campaigns since 1980. During that time, it has grown from a sketchy map to a richly detailed world that has taken on a life of it's own. Inside this site you will find full color maps, detailed descriptions of...

    Help a super-hero newbie

    Paragon is a very good free PDF available here: http://www.rpghoard.com/cgi-bin/arcdb.cgi?cat=15&sec=9 There is a 90+ page ruleset, a preview setting, and a MSH conversion guide.

    D20 Marvel

    That was West End Games, not Games Workshop, unless WEG was part of GW? Also, I get the impression it is the creator of Paranoia, not the publisher (i.e. the Gary Gygax or Monte Cook of Paranoia, not the TSR or WOtC).

    D20 Marvel

    As far as I know, it was never Wizards. There was a third party company trying to obtain the rights - I think they got close, but alas it's not to be - to make a d20 Marvel game, but that appears to have fallen through. Marvel's newest RPG incarnation will be from the folks who wrote the...

    D20 Marvel

    Well, this looks disappointing... http://x-mencomics.com/xfan/showarticle.php?threadid=8670&postid=194070. Looks there will not be an official d20 MSH game as they intend to follow the path of their SAGA system and return to a diceless system. Too bad. You can still check out Paragon's MSH...

    D20 Marvel

    Although I've done A LOT of combat encounters and fiddling with characters, I'm kicking off my first full camapign with my whole group this Tuesday. I'll let you know how it goes and post any problems we run into.

    D20 Marvel

    I've just discovered a great upside to Paragon... maybe Cwylric, in all his wisdom, planned this - but I'll pretend I figured it out just the same... Three of the classes in Paragon (the Martial Artist, the Rogue, and the Sorcerer) come straight from the PHB. Mighty efforts were made to ensure...

    Cwylric's posted the d20 Paragon/Marvel Super Heroes conversion notes as promised and you can get them here: http://www.rpghoard.com/cgi-bin/arcdb.cgi?cat=15&sec=9

    Sulimo, you can get a lot of the old MSH stuff in PDF form from here: http://www.rabunda.com/~super/dir.php?loc=resources/rules/index.php

    D20 Marvel

    The first answer is some armor provides both AC bonus and damage resistance against some kinds of attack. The second answer to the armor question is the same as a lot to questions of this type... it's not in the Players' Handbook. Cwylric wants Paragon to only require one book. The...

    D20 Marvel

    Hmmm... can you be a little more specific about the problem with the save progression? I suspect any unusual jumps were set along the lines of existing classes in D&D and work to bring balance to the classes. There has been a lot of thought put into these rules and most of what's in the final...

    I have the Fantastic Four made up somewhere - I'll post them if I can find them - The game was really designed for our sourcebook... Vancouver:2020 (you can get the primer the same place you got the rules and might have a chance to participate in it if you hurry - it's been mentioned before in...

    D20 Marvel

    OK, on the energy points problem... first of all are sure you used all of the rules correctly? I've been working with the game for a long time and still find I'm forgetting things. A character starts with 12ep plus his Con and Wis bonuses. If the character is a mutant, he gets 4 bonus points...

    D20 Marvel

    I disagree that super heroes in the comics do not typically increase in power or gain new abilities. First of all, a first level hero is the equivilant of his or her counterpart in D&D... a neophyte adventurer. Just looking at one Marvel series, all of the original X-Men were clumsy with their...
