Well, in the two campaigns I have ever helped end (one 6 year campaign as a player wizard and one 5 year campaign as DM), the endings went something like this: First one, we kinda screwed the whole thing up - the story shall be remained untold lest I start whining - and there really was nothing...

I am not a social outcast, but I do have an intelligence above average ... :D I'd say CHA 15, INT 16 Of course, my real life DM (he keeps me in a cave) might object to such meta-gaming speak. regards Toft

Bump both to keep this thread up and to remind me to donate come February :) regards Toft [edit: spelling ... yeah I suck]

I don't know when you need the money by, but I am in the tightest of spots right now ... come Feb I can and will donate if that is still early enough? Wow, I can't believe I haven't done something like this before. There is so much good to be said about this site. He truly deserves it. regards...

Bugger! I was hoping for a convert! We gotta sneak them in the back door :)

I realise this isn't the answer you are looking for and I will try and keep my advocacy to a minimum, but if nothing else solves your problem, you could go to www.mozilla.org and download one of their browsers. If nothing else, you can diagnose whether it is a IE problem or a Windows...

Ha ha, what an odd discussion. Never mind; me being the one who threw in the first sheep in the wolf-pen, I'll take my next bout as duty compels. I can see your point (and you might/might now be proven right when more, pardon my badly chosen word for such fine work, rejects speak up), but...

Great stuff, wizardoftheplains. I fail to see how rejection of three "similar" settings (golden age) can lead anyone to conclude that they are looking for a golden age setting. From a logic standpoint, this is apparently what they are *not* looking for. As we don't know anything about the...

Sucks for Eden Studios (Odyssey). I wonder I they are going to speed things up or abandon the project entirely. As they have already delayed the project (going from Winter 2001, to Summer 2002, to TBA) I suspect cancelation. http://www.edenstudios.net/odyssey/7005.html regards Toft

Yeah, there is something called a "working vacation", where you are allowed up to two years of part-time work or one year of full-time work. It's a Commonwealth thing. AFAIK it is pretty easy going to Canada from the US, but coming from anywhere else you should prepare yourself for a long haul...

Well in that case :) Here is how I started it up: [list=1] Draw the coastlines on a sketch Scan the coastline in Fill in coastline with pencil tool (or whatever equivalent) Draw swamps and other "low" terrain types. Drawing these first will later cover them over with other terrain, which seems...

Hey [Edit]: URL Yeah, sketched at first, then I scan it and redraw on top of it using Paint Shop Pro. PSP is very similar in functionality to Corel Photo Paint, just use loads of layers (one for the roads, one for terrain etc.) and you can be sure to never do anything you cannot "backtrack"...

He he, well, actually it *is* a whole world map. The map covers 2400 x 1750 km (1500 x 1100 miles), which is roughly about the size of Europe. I should say one could have found a lifetime of adventure travelling around Europe in the year 1200, wouldn't you? The dying viking realms to the...

City maps online Hi again. I have put some city maps online at the download page on the website. http://home.worldonline.dk/sunbeam/fourthage/ Unfortunately the locations on the maps are not documented, except on quickly scribbled notes. I'll see about getting that stuff online. Regards Toft

Cheers for the nice words. I have actually drawn a few city maps for the settings, but the notes for it are not on my PC (hand written), so I decided not to put them online. I am writing a campaign for it as we/I speak, but I just feel bad about putting half-a**** stuff on the website. Then...

Great :) I just clicked the link and it worked fine for me. Maybe the server is a bit flakey. Anyways, the full address is: http://home.worldonline.dk/sunbeam/fourthage/ Thanks for the heads up. I'll try and find another server; for now if you could try this address again, cheers! Regards Toft

Hi all After working on it for 3 years, I have finally decided to release my own homebrew setting. Check it out at Fourth Age website I know it is not complete, but there's about 40 pages written on it and a full 4000 x 3000 pixel, handdrawn map (ie. drawn on a computer, but without the aid...

Hong, does that mean I can put you on a boat for two months and call you a wimp too? I'm sure your comment wasn't said out of spite, but it sort of struck me the wrong way. I mean, here's a man who's been alone on a boat for 60 days, surviving probably on what he could find, retching seawater...

Hi I recently wrote a post regarding a birthday present for my girlfriend who lives in Toronto. Personally I live in the UK, so I am thinking for her upcoming birthday to do some kind of treassure hunt for her. Please read this post (it's not very long)...

jasper said Unfortunately she's a student like me, but involving one of her bosses at her part time job might not be a bad idea at all. Lars Frehse said... Wow, the film idea is great. Kinda Amelié'ish, if you've seen it? Only thing is, I need to ship a undeveloped roll of film across the...
