    Map of Air Force Base (does anyone know where I can find one?)

    Dungeon Magazine #96 has a swell map, to go with the swell Delta Green intro adventure contained on the Polyhedron side.

    Rifts D20, what would you use?

    I would second the recommendation made by Micheal Tree (evidently a scholar and a gentleman, as well as an MnM fan) to use Mutants and Masterminds. You can get the whole range of Rifts character zaniness, with the relatively unknown (in Rifts) feature of character balance. It comes all in one...

    Good lord, so many books...

    I hear your pain, man. Perhaps we should form a support group. "Splatbooks Anonymous" No, the initials are all wrong, and already taken. I guess we have to face up to it - we like to read RPG books, even those we don't ever intend to use. I bought all five of the WotC splatbooks, even...

    Whats so good about a Cleric Archer?

    Tautage, I think it's mostly fixed in 3.5ed. I think the core of it was (in 3.0ed) the spell Greater Magic Weapon, which has been toned down, and the rule that enhancement bonuses stacked with the enhancement bonuses on missile ammunition. Thus, in 3.0 edition, at 9th level, a cleric could...

    Running dungeons with high level PCs (my players don't read - and yes, I'll know!)

    I don't know Rappan Athuk, but I did finish running a group through RttToEE, and found myself with some of the problems you've mentioned. Teleporting in and out was something of a problem, but I cut down on it a bit by looking up the weight limits on the teleport spell, and had the players add...

    OA - Black Leopard Cult - Info?

    I think the adventure OA3 Ochimo the Spirit Warrior had the most info on the fraternal order of the black cat. Feel free to prove me wrong.

    I got a copy of CROOKS for M&M...

    Not that this has anything at all to do with Crooks! but I'm guessing your Edmonton plans have been scotched. Were you put off by the Edmonton vs Calgary thread you unwittingly spawned? Or did you just find a tombstone-sized belt buckle in Vancouver and realize that was all you wanted from...

    B5: The Long, Dark Night Of Achilles

    This is totally awesome. I really look forward to more of this super thread. You, sir, are an inspiration and my own personal short-duration personal savior.

    The best published adventures

    I would also recommend the Vault of Larin Karr, and also the Banewarrens. Note I have not yet run either. But both of them have very nice transitions between dungeon and town encounters, something I value especially since I just completed DMing Return to the Temple of Elemental Evil. Darn...

    what to do with a box of heads?(now with pic!)

    I like the idea of painting them to resemble EN personalities. Or you could use them as clay pigeons for skeet shooting. Or you could do both... Perhaps they are the missing material components for your stalled clay golem project. They could be your teeny-tiny unholy ceramic army of the...

    Anyone run campaigns with "less than good" characters?

    Somebody really hit it earlier on. Revenge. I had a party of mostly good aligned characters held up by bandits, who swiped some of their stuff. They went CRAZY. They would have stopped at nothing to get at the bandit leader who made them look bad, and stole their precious possessions. If...

    T20 Traveller - The Kursis Charter (complete Aug 8th 2005)

    This is excellent! I've heard about Traveller for decades now, and even got around to getting a copy of T20. (second hand, at a bargain, and still in good shape - maybe in better shape than your old A2!) It sure is nice to hear a few of someone else's runs before I jump in myself. As a bonus...

    Gameisms...

    "Tricorder duty" Originally from V:tM, referring to the character that max'ed Auspex, and played twenty questions regarding every person, thing, or scene they came across. Later came to apply to detect spells, and elves and dwarves who wanted their free search rolls. Other players, who wanted...

    Anyone here from Edmonton, Alberta?

    I'm from Edmonton, and in a pretty regular weekly game. Couldn't promise you a spot until all involved had met you, but we're mostly all Darkest of the Hillside Thickets fans too, so you might fit in. Although, your sanity must be questioned for moving FROM Vancouver TO Edmonton, which is...

    Hero points

    I myself am fond of the AU system, at least so far as "spend a point - convert a death result into a disfiguring injury". A little classier than the current "get killed, get raised, not a scratch on you". I think a good disfiguring injury would be a neat roleplaying experience, or at least a...
