    Greyhawk's doomgrinder

    From memory, I think you got that exactly right. The Doomgrinder internals were made up of a set of geomorphs, put together randomly, with a Control Room at the end of them. That put me right off. But my group never went near the place - they completed Star Cairns but refused point blank to...

    [Feb] What are you reading?

    Presently reading The DaVinci Code and wondering why it's been such a success. The short, choppy chapters don't suit my reading style and the writing isn't always brilliant. Of course, it helps that I read The Holy Blood and the Holy Grail twenty years ago ;) :p

    Mapping Tools

    I mean a program which gives you a JPEG or similar output.

    Would the D&D brand manager please stand up.

    Unless, of course, they're bringing the stuff through their Channel Islands loophole operation where VAT doesn't exist as such. ;)

    WotBS WotBS #1: The Scouring of Gate Pass

    I haven't had chance to more than skim through the pdf, but I am impressed by the premise, the artwork and the plot of the adventure. It's certainly more than your average dungeon crawl. The whole package is much more than I expected, and much thought has been put into it. Gate Pass is a...

    Sell me on Burning Sky.

    I did have some ideas as to how the Burning Sky political backstory could be fitted to Greyhawk. You could either use the Great Empire to replace Ragesia (death of Ivid the Undying would be the key point there, it has been described in the LGG, complete with the shattering of the Empire), or the...

    Great maps. They look like they'll be a great assistance playing the game. Anticipation levels increasing!

    [ENP] War of the Burning Sky Campaign Guide

    I've got it. I've read it. It's good. I'm impatiently awaiting my first adventure installment...

    Mapping Tools

    Can anyone recommend any good freeware mapping tools for RPG's? I'm looking for something relatively simple to use for working up sections of countryside in a forthcoming campaign I'm planning right now. Ideally, it needs to be relatively easy to use (for a Klutz like me who kno nuthing) and...

    TORCHWOOD Finale - spoilers

    Right, here's the deal with The Doctor's regenerations: The 12-regeneration (13 body) rule was established in the Ton Baker story The Deadly Assassin, written by the then Script Editor Robert Holmes. He inserted this line to put a limit on a Time Lord's lifespan. Previously, there had been no...

    Pathfinder 1E Who should nourish the others at Paizo?

    I voted for the Sales guy before seeing that they'd all got out. What the heck. What's the shipping cost of a few spare sales ribs to the UK? They'll be frozen already, so they'll keep :]

    So what is your favorite module, ever?

    Best adventure I've ever played in was the Harlequin campaign for Shadowrun. A close runner-up is The Crypt of Saint Bethesda from AEG (it was one of their short adventures in a long, thin booklet). It was run by a Killer DM who nearly handed us our butts on a plate. Best module I've ever...

    War of the Burning Sky - Updated 1/18 with discussion of the Player's Guide

    I was expecting a few hints and tips as part of the forum rather than publishing it in the Campaign Guide. I've hit up against the OGL buffers in the past and appreciate how difficult it can be to include that sort of info in a non WotC product. Message boards, are, however, another matter ;)

    War of the Burning Sky - Updated 1/18 with discussion of the Player's Guide

    Given the pound-to-dollar exchange rate, I'll be picking up a subscription fairly soon, it's a real bargain for me. ;) Any advice on placing the Compaign Saga on the Greyhawk world will be much appreciated as it's my 'default' setting. With something as world-breaking as this, I might have to...

    What module are you running?

    I'm about to run my group through Shadow Tor from the 2E Castle Sites book. I've had to convert the creatures to 3.5E, and ensure that the Vampire and Lich who lair there aren't going to totally take the group apart. After that, I'll be letting them loose on The Tower of Jhedophar, a shortish...

    Commiserations to English cricket fans...

    We got a beating, that's true. We're missing two key players in Vaughan and Simon Jones, we have a wicket-keeper/ batsman who can't bat and Freddie Flintoff just back after ankle trouble. I'd like to think playing Monty Panesaar in the first two games might have made a difference, but it would...

    FreeCountry (Free DnD Mapper)

    I downloaded an earlier version to my PC, but couldn't get it to run properly (but it was late at night and I was tired). I'll definately try to have another go at running this one, it looks as if it might be what I'm after :cool:
