    Fantasy Campaign Setting: What do you want/not want?

    Hey there, So I am debating designing a new fantasy campaign world (for publication, but not only for D&D) but before I put a single drop of ink to paper, I was curious as to what the general desires of the modern gamers are. I know the grognards (myself being one) love sand boxes, while there...

    [Heroes Against Darkness] Anyone playing?

    Hey there all, I have been enjoying Heroes Against Darkness a totally free and rather well done clone of D&D (ranging from original to 4e noless). I have to say that I am rather impressed by the efforts here and was looking to discuss the game with others. Cheers!

    E6: The Game Inside D&D

    I would be very interested in knowing as well. I haven't picked up Pathfinder yet but my desire to do so would be affected by an answer to this question, positive or negative. :) Thanks.

    What flavor of 'Old School' do you like?

    My love for Labyrinth Lord grows and grows. Simply an outstanding product :)

    My Campaign World

    Work continues apace. I have started fleshing out the regions around Elise, adding an area called Boraquel, home to the Boraquels, a sort of Gallic tribes-people. Not quite barbarians, but more like the Scottish clans circa Edward the First. Certainly they are a pain in the side of the Baron...

    My Campaign World

    Another example of something that I am going to lift is going to be Blackmore, as a place over the mountains on the other side of Vothia. I will modify it to fit my world a bit, but I like it over all. This sort of darker, more desolate mirror to the west, with elves and dwarves et al just...

    My Campaign World

    Actually that is one of the main things I liked about Greyhawk and outright lifted it for this world. Cause I like it :) I should mention that I am not trying to make some original world, but a world that can be fun for my players. I actually once thought about cherry picking all fantasy...

    My Campaign World

    Seems I am not getting notification emails here... hmmmm... As for the formatting et al, I will be uploading a new map, made with Hexmapper, that I am quite proud of. Also this will involve a new Gaz, which I will try to make sure is more formated :)

    My Campaign World

    Thanks for the kind words :) The PCs started in the city of Seawall, which is just at the foot of the mountains that run along the Bone Steppes. The city is more towards the Iron Coast. It is a city built, like Gondor, into the side of a mountain face. It also has a massive wall that makes...

    My Campaign World

    The known world (Shown on the map) is in the latter days of a dark age. 500 years ago the Verendi Empire ruled the world from the Iron Coast to the shores of Colwyn. Trade with the elves of the Silverwood forest and the then proud Vothic Empire was brisk and life was good. When Emperor...

    My Campaign World

    Hello everyone. I just started a new 3.5 campaign and thought I would share the world with you all. First up is the map, it is based on the old Warhammer Fantasy one, but was redrawn by a friend of mine and then labeled by me for this world. I may have posted this once before for an aborted...

    D&D 3E/3.5 Novie 3.5 DM needs help - XP related

    Well for the first part, I can give them as much or as little as I choose, but I want them to enjoy and really taste the lower levels in this campaign and to be honest I find 3e gives waaaay too much XP and levels come very very quickly. It isn't about my comfort it is about wanting to take...

    D&D 3E/3.5 Novie 3.5 DM needs help - XP related

    Hey everyone, any and all help is appreciated on this one. I am starting a new 3.5 campaign next week and I want to make sure my players actually log time in the lower levels and not progress too quickly. That said I still want the game to be exciting and dynamic for them and not be a...

    Hexmap making resources?

    Well now I see... Silly computers ;) Well I can't run this program either as it is a PC program. Tried to get virtual PC running on my machine, and that crapped out since the program requires a patch that won't run in Win98 (8 character file names vs 32). Sigh. Thanks anyways guys :)

    Nice page dude! Excellent stuff :) Thanks for the links, they are really appreciated. Sorry for those multiple posts everyone, it was just one of those weird hiccups my computer went through. I was not trying to spam, honest.
