That's so funny. My monitor was in danger of being sprayed with coffee. I'm almost tempted to add it to my sig line.

I would, but I haven't got enough hours in the day, right now...

Wee Jas, the Goddess of peaceful death and magic. Her neutral clerics rebuke Undead, rather than Turning them, but Wee Jas is LN, so there is no problem building an LG Cleric who would then Turn Undead.

Necromancer Games' Shades of Grey (released through Kenzer) takes a party from first level to about 12th level. There are a range of adventures, not just dungeon crawls - though they certainly do figure. A PDF is available from your usual electronic vendor, and if the DM Day sale is still on...

War of the Burning Seattle I didn't dream when I started this thread that we'd be planning an assault on Renton in retaliation.

Here's the default Necromancer Games AP, with suggested additions listed in italics The Wizard's Amulet (free PDF d/l) The Crucible of Freya The Tomb of Abysthor The Grey Citadel (use as a base for exploring Abysthor) Hall of the Rainbow Mage Rappan Athuk (Reloaded) The 'Slumbering Tsar'...

Not me: I've just got Part 2 of War of the Burning Sky, so I'm as happy as Larry. :lol: :]

According to Mr Jacobs in the same thread, Paizo can't release the PDF of a Dragon magazine until the back issues sell out. It's part of :heh: the licensing agreement with Wizards :\ . So it will be a while before all the Dragons are available as a PDF. I guess that the costs in compiling an...

And that was co-written by {ta-dah!} James Jacobs from Paizo! The Prosecution rests, Your Honour ;) :p

Downloaded. Wow, it's big. Skim-read. Wow. Note to self: print out, take home, bind, read. ;)

In this thread on the Paizo boards, James Jacobs notes that a hardcover compilation of The Age of Worms AP is looking less and less likely. This is a real shame, as it would be a great resource (especially if some of the Dragon articles made it in there as well). Seems like WotC won't give...

'Nuff said. And a certain OS has a lot to answer for, as well...

Best of Necromancer: The Lost City of Barakus - yes, bits of the city are sketchy, but a good DM can adapt them nicely. The Dungeon is a great piece of work. I'm reading it now, preparatory to running it, and it is sheer joy. Tomb of Abysthor - probably the best old-school dungeon around...

Their webmaster went MIA about a year ago, and finding a new one has been difficult. It's not like they don't want to update it, it's just that they haven't got someone to do so full time.

Darn it Bill, you know I'm into PDF's - why do you have to tempt me like this ;)

From what I've seen of it so far (the guides and Episode 1), I'm impressed. The plotting and writing is high-quality and the artwork exceptional. I bought the subscription when it came out, with some caveats in the back of my head as to what I was getting - they all vanished when the first...

Sounds to me that anyone running this should consider handing out 50% XP (as per Lost City of Barakus from Necromancer Games) to prevent levels being gained too quickly - PC's would come out around mid 2nd Level, which would be about right for an introductory adventure in my book.

I can easily answer one of your questions: Also, can anyone expand a little on Torrent's background? What is her deity again? Her deity is not given - it is left for the DM to customise for his world. Use of the deities from the SRD is one oprion, but other pantheons might be more appropriate...

I have a feeling that my wife and I were back at the gaming table in fairly short order after #2 son was born - we had him sleep in the crib in the room where we game and made sure that the rowdy element didn't make too much noise. I'm fairly sure that there were times I was feeding him and...

FWIW, I quite enjoyed using the Earthdawn systemwhen we played it a few years ago. The magic system takes some getting used to (but works quite effectively), and the martial types can get fairly tough as they get higher in level. A battle against a Horror generally becomes a pants-wetting...
