    A interesting issue with the boards

    I am/was having the same problem, and I've went through the steps outlined by the Hand. This is a quick reply, btw. Another test, forthcoming. - Rep.

    Price of Books too high?

    Personally, my RPG hobby has been the cheapest of all the ones I am and have been involved in... taking such things as Magic: The Gathering Online, various Comic addictions, and a strange compulsion to actually buy my music, tabletop RPG products are somewhere near the bottom in terms of leisure...

    Reviving Greyhawk: A letter-writing campaign.

    Having purchased the D&D Gazetteer and read the Living Greyhawk book, I'm reasonably interested in a more fleshed-out iteration of the setting in terms of a FRCS-type hardcover, but I have to wonder about whether or not it's likely in terms of getting professionals motivated to actually write...

    ant attack! (ot) (now with gun story)

    Will someone *please* think of the ants?! On a related note, what would the Search DC be on something like that? Certainly above 15, maybe 20? Maybe just a Summon Swarm magical trap? Or something more... nefarious? Off to make a new, third-level, swarm spell with a cone area of effect... -...

    Warrant Officers Great info so far guys, but I have one question: "Can someone explain to me what the duties and responsibilities of Warrant Officers are, please?" Thanks, - Rep.

    'Balancing' rolled characters

    I'm likin' this Stat Matrix! The stat matrix sounds quite interesting, if my group ever plays D&D again, I'll make sure that I mention it! After reading the thread, I have to ask: Has anyone ever had a good experience when the DM just let the players choose their statistics? Would there be...

    Gaming in College

    Courses taken have an extreme effect on free time. I'm fourth year, working on a degree in Global Studies (a combination of Political Science and Economics focusing on international aspects), and I've found that I tend to have more free time than a lot of other students. Of course, I've settled...

    Kingdoms of Kalamar

    Kenzer Forums Here's a LINK to the Kenzer & Co. Kingdoms of Kalamar forums. They're a real help -- especially the Story Hours if you're looking for a place to get a feel for the setting.

    Dwarf Military Maxims, Expressions, and Exclamations

    Hmm, I'm not exactly sure that the dwarves would do all they could to avoid battle on an open field if it suited them. I've alikened the dwarves to an infantry heavy army much like that of Imperial Rome. Heavy shields and armour coupled with great weapon skills and excellent training should...

    Poll: Who did play in a group where the master had a "pet NPC"?

    Wow, Wormwood, you're bitterness is reapearsaurian in proportions! Of course, it seems that it's most acceptable due to the truly terrible experience the DM(PC) must have inflicted on the game. I've never had experience with DMPCs, but of course, I'm usually the DM... To my knowledge, I don't...

    WARNING - "Dreamcatcher" is extremely awful !

    I think The Stand came out as a mini-series before The Shawshank Redemption, so when I say "since (this movie)," I sort of mean it, hehe. But I'm not sure that I'd categorize The Stand as a theatrical movie -- different medium means a different set of expectations and biases.

    WARNING - "Dreamcatcher" is extremely awful !

    I'm gonna chime in here and say that I just saw the movie, and it was by far the best King movie I've seen since The Shawshank Redemption. This is not to say that your points are invalid, but it's to say that mine are just as valid. When it comes to movies, it comes down to personal tastes...

    Choose Your Favorite Weapon

    Polearm ~ Halberd? My favourite weapon has got to be the Halberd. I've really no reason for the choice other than the fact that I think they're neat. Come to think of it, my choice must be a throwback from my Warhammer Fantasy Battles days... All hail Emperor Karl Franz! :D - Rep.

    The best way for published campaigns to come out.

    Personally, I prefer a distinct top-down approach because the makeup of my campaigns are situated around NPCs and the interrelationships between themselves and the PCs that drive the engine of the story. If I don't have any relevant information pertaining to the nature of those NPCs'...

    Do you exclusively play a single race?

    Of course, it's not like these same players choose their races out of a need for diversity... It seems that stat-minded people will choose a race to head off a weakness inherent in the stats, or exploit what is already a strength. "Why play a high elven wizard with an intelligence of seventeen...

    Do you exclusively play a single race?

    I find it interesting that I only play humans, while Dragongirl never plays them, for approximately the same reason. The only difference is the fact that I approach non-humans as crutches for roleplaying. Essentially, I think my playing an elf or a dwarf would take half the fun out of playing a...
