    Weather Tables

    Not a program, but if you go to my D&D downloads page I created a PDF with all the weather charts from Frostburn (and the effects of all that weather). Frostburn Weather charts

    What do I want? An apology.

    Atavar: WotC does not pay to publish the magazines. They are licensed to paizo, who incur all the costs. WotC _makes_ money from the license agreement. Using your example above, there are 30,000 people who would not pay for a mag, but would pay for DI. Since these people are not, and would not...

    What do I want? An apology.

    Enforcer, the two formats are only competing for players who are _already_ consumers of the magazine. I have already granted that if enough mag consumers want DI instead, then the decision is founded (and economic theory would have ensured the natural demise of the mags). The problem with the...

    What do I want? An apology.

    So it is not lost above, because I think it is an important point, here is is again: The only people who are really affected by the cancellation of the magazines are those who purchased it. Those who _didn't_ are irrelevant to the discussion since the existence, or cancellation of the magazines...

    What do I want? An apology.

    Enforcer, I notice you haven't responded to my rebuttal from above.

    What do I want? An apology.

    Enforcer, as seen in the quote above, I believe your argument is flawed. The only people who are really affected by the cancellation of the magazines are those who purchased it. Those who _didn't_ are irrelevant to the discussion since the existence, or cancellation of the magazines has no...

    What do I want? An apology.

    Perhaps some people have misunderstood. As I pointed out in my original post the magazines aren't coming back, nor should we want them to at this point because it can never now be as it was. There are two issues, it seems, whether an apology is owed by a company to its consumers, and for what...

    Did the interview change your mind?

    In the event that Scott, Bill, or Chris decide to come back and check on the board since the posting of their interview, I would like them to know how I feel in response. (To those of you sick of reading about this, rather than criticizing me for exercising my right to dissent, go read a...

    What do I want? An apology.

    I have stated (as have others) here and elsewhere how angry I am at WotC, and that I will no longer buy their products. I am more than willing to carry through with that (I've done it before with other companies/products) but while stewing about the issue I started thinking about all the posts...

    "Raiders of the Black Ice" and Frostburn

    I recently purchased Frostburn (an excellent book) and started running the adventure "Raiders of the Black Ice" by Wolfgang Baur in Dungeon #115. While doing so I noticed some discrepancies between the "lite" version of the rules in the adventure, and those in FB. I understand that sometimes...

    Dungeon Magazine: New Format, New Subscription Price

    Eric, (et al), I've been subscribed to Dragon for about a year and a half now, (previous to that I mostly collected Halloween issues, and read my friends') and after reading the orginal "open letter" a little while ago started thinking more about Dungeon. As a DM I use my own home brew...

    Need help with Eberron opening to a module...

    Well, Ebberon has news sheets, doesn't it? Why not add an intro scene where the PCs are standing in the twon square reading a posted news sheet (you read aloud) or where a town crier is reading one aloud, or where other people are arguing about a story in the news sheet, thus giving the...

    Need help with Eberron opening to a module...

    Try this: type up a one page summary of the general history of Ebberon, and any regional information they might need to know for charcater creation, then offer a 500 to 1000 XP bonus to anyone who submits to you (with their charcater) a minimum two-thirds of a page chacater background that...

    Journalism in Eberron - craft or profession?

    I would argue a craft involves producing some physical thing from other things, like making horse shoes, or arrows. A profession is perhaps more concerned with ideas and their application. I conside writing (and thus journalism) to be a profession, not a craft. There is much more to being a...

    Underwater campaign: help?

    Hey. I originally posted this is the D20 section, since I am asking about D20 resources, but it didn't seem to be getting much traffic, so I'm reposting it here as a plea for help with my D&D underwater campaign. I'm planning to create a new campaign world for my homebrew, based on sea travel...

    Underwater Adventures: Best Resources?

    Y'all, I'm planning to create a new campaign world for my homebrew, based on sea travel with the majority of adventuring done underwater. I already have The Seafarer's Handbook (Fantasy Flight Games) but I'm hoping you can all help me (and anyone else interested in this sort of campaign) with a...

    Shrunken PCs and CR/EL

    I haven't actually done this to my PCs, but, if they were to shrink, how would you compensate, or recalculate CR/EL? What part of the CR calculation of a monster is its size? How does size affect a party's EL? Let's say you shrink the party to be smaller than a rat?

    Dungeon 112: Map problems

    MerricB, Though I know the people at Paizo occasionally (?) read these boards, have you emailed them directly to, hopefully, get a more timely, and possibly official, reply? I would be interested to see what they have to say, but who knows how long it will be before they (maybe) see this...

    Killer Kangaroos!

    Okay, so apparently those of you living in Australia are having trouble with roving gangs of tough kangaroos. (http://www.cbc.ca/stories/2004/07/07/world/hungry_kangaroos040707 It got me to thinking about making real world animals that we don't usually think of as fearsome _more_ fearsome...
