    Byzantium on the Shannon III

    Thank's Gideon. I've been GMing for a long time, and once and a while you have to get on the other side of the screen to get your perspective back. I've got my fingers crossed...

    Byzantium on the Shannon III

    What has Gone Before It would take another 40 posts to encapsulate the twists and turns of the previous story hours. The old party, of which Gudlag was a part, was involved in the machinations of a Necromancer by the name of Volodya. He had started a civil war in a Cimbri kingdom, while...

    Byzantium on the Shannon III

    Hitting The Reset Button Our on-again off-again campaign has been back "on" for a while and since I have a backlog of adventure write-ups now, I thought some of the folks that used to follow the various “Byzantium on the Shannons” might like to know what's up. Between adventures 8 and 9 I...

    Announcing Nicole Drader

    Congrats to you and your wife -- heck, mostly your wife! Good luck with the sleep deprivation and, etc. You know the drill. (It's funny how we only talk about the bad stuff, but anyone who's held their sleeping child will put up with all kinds of crap (yes, literally) once you've done it...)...

    3.5, 3.0 products, and YOUR game....

    Yep. That's the key to happiness, man! I like rules. I like the fact that 3.5 is better than 3.0. Is my game 50% better? No. 25%? Nope. 15%? Maybe. But it _is_ better. My players like thier new Monsters and like I said, some of my 3.0 monsters are a little weaker, and no, I did not...

    3.5, 3.0 products, and YOUR game....

    Sure. I convert some of it, but not all. I used some monsters I wrote up for 3.0, which should have been a bit tougher if I converted them, but I did not bother. Our default method of adoption is to let 3.5 trump 3.0. If there is a problem we discuss, and maybe make up a house rule. So far we...

    Nope, but I thought I had been ported over to RPG.net due to all the flaming bile...

    I like 3E, but I miss...

    I miss... ...being able to play all day and all night long on snowdays in my friend's basement with roaring fire at my back, a cold coke in front of me. ...which is to say that what I miss can be chalked up to nostalgia for being a young gamer geek without so many real-world...

    grognard one-shot

    Okay, I'm going to be running a 3.5 game for some old D&D buddies - some as far back as high school in the 80's. The PCs (bard, sorcerer/barbarian, cleric, and wizard) are around 14th level. Anyhoo, the setup for the game is that one of the PC's parents (the bard's) were framed for a murder and...

    Should the whole idea of class skills be done away with?

    Carnifex, I tell you what, I and another GM who runs a campaign in the same setting, but in another state, have ditched the whole concept of class skills and have seen ZERO negatve impact in the game. It's ALL been positive. I've been running this way for a couple of months. My compatriot's...

    Module Recommendations

    Looks like I will be running a game for some of my old gaming geek buddies in a few weeks. This is going to be a one-shot affair over a weekend. I do not have time to come up with something whole cloth so I was hoping some of you could come up with some ideas for modules that might fit the bill...

    Orcs and 10'x10' Rooms

    Nope. This has come up exactly never.

    So anyone NOT changing to 3.5?

    I like D&D. I can honestly say (just as I did three years ago) that taken as a whole, the current version is an improvement over the earlier versions. We revamped the 3.0 characters last night and everyone walked away much happier. I'm looking forward to running D&D again.

    Things that have bugged you since 1E

    Alignment - d20 modern has a much better and more generic system. Fighters are, by definition, trained to kill things - in fact, with their lousy skill points, it is about the only thing they _are_ trained to do. Why is it then that rogues are the only ones that have bothered to study anatomy...
