    Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad goes to Greyhawk

    I am reminded of a quest in the Pool of Radiance video game where the party, which is new to the town is tasked with clearing out a section of the town (the slums) that is overrun with goblins. As a linear game, you pretty much had no choice but to do so in order to advance. BUT.... Consider...

    Dragon fight

    when our party slew a red dragon, we ended up making more money from the carcass than from the treasure. Skinning the beast yielded a full set of banded dragon armour (the armourer provided the armour in exchange for the rest of the hide) Teeth and claws were used as armour spikes. We built a...

    Something funny happened in church yesterday . . .

    When I was a kid I played my share of video games (Atari, Coleco, Commodore 64), but the one thing that I never got bored with was Lego. I had a 5 gallon bucket full of it. And I'm talking about the old generic stuff not this newfangled prefab crap. THAT was a toy worth playing with.

    What is your favorite beer?

    MMMmmm Beer. I would have to say my current favourites include: St. Ambroise Oatmeal Stout. Thick, dark, basically liquid bread. Maudite (Unibroue Breweries in Quebec) fermented in the bottle so it will actually age like wine. Alcohol content is high (8-10%). very good. Granville Island...

    So my computer caught fire.....

    or more specifically, the video card in the computer. It all started when I turned on the computer hoping to check my email. In addition to the healthy blue glow that my computer emits when it is running, I happened to notice a startlingly UNhealthy orange glow emanating from the vicinity of my...

    D&D 4E Poll: How do you feel about 4E

    I am going to reserve final judgment until the product is released. I think that the time is right to introduce a new edition, 3.5 seeming to me to be more of a "patch" for 3 ed. There are some aspects, specifically, the online content, that worries me, however. WOTC states that this content is...

    What do you think is the hardest AD&D or D&D video game fight?

    as I stated in another thread the Mulmaster Beholder Corps in Curse of the Azure Bonds. it was a side quest that was nigh impossible. basically it was your 6 PCs versus about 20 of each of Beholders, Dark Elf Lords (self hasting and mostly immune to magic), High Priests (lots of Save or Die and...
