This thread could become very expensive for me :D I just ordered Beyond Countless Doorways and I'm thinking about getting Dawnforge, Book of Artifacts, and the Spell Compendium...lol. Thanks for all the "tips" on great books.

The Dragon is dead! Long live the Pathfinder!

That picture is by Arnie Swekel...his paintings are much better than his line work in the core books IMHO. Matt

The Astral metal band...Damn Githyankees

Thanks very much. Based upon the replies, I went out and picked up a copy of Eberron...a very interesting read so far. Another question springs to mind...What sort of DMing style does Eberron require? I mean this in the sense of how to run it "properly," especially in keeping with the style of...

Briefly ran a game in Ptolus' world, where many of the Dwarves come from the Hotash mountains. One of my players "kindly" renamed them the Slapa-Hotash Mountains...just can't go back from that. Matt

Hello All, I was flipping through Secrets of Sarlona yesterday, liked what I saw, and started wondering...Is Eberron worth picking-up and trying? I have been very stand-offish towards Eberron until now, mostly because I was immersed in the demise of my campaign, but also because of all the...

It was 1981. I had just moved to the States from England and my friend told me how he had cut an orc in half with a battle axe. I have never looked back! Matt

Love Drizzt. Always have and always will. The novels were fun and brought the D&D flavor into mainstream fantasy IMHO. They are by no means great literature but highly entertaining, and Drizzt is damn cool. As for the clones, well I've had a few players try to play them and they fall woefully...

You, sir, are drinking bad beer! ;) Seriously though, I partake in a bevy every once in awhile...warm mead being the current favorite. Matt

I just wanted to thank Quasqueton for making this post. It expresses many of the same feelings that I have faced recently with my gaming group (to the point of stepping aside from the DM's chair for awhile). I also want to thank everyone for their replies...they have helped me (sitting here at...

Many thanks for the ideas and suggestions. Perhaps my intent was not very clear, but I DO want to use the core classes in my campaign, as well as some others from outside sources. I want to expand the classes available to my players but I also want to make sure I don't unbalance things, hence...

First, thanks for the feedback. Nifft: I meant that I wanted to supplement the core classes with other ones from other d20 sources...sorry for the confusion Nightfall: Is the Holy Warrior the class from Book of the Righteous?

As I cobble together my ideas for a homebrew world, I wanted to know if anyone had used non-WOTC player classes in their campaigns. To clarify, I have been thinking of replacing the Paladin with the Champion from Arcana Evolved, and perhaps might add some others from different d20 sources...

Good people, interesting and eclectic discussion, and a great game to talk about. That, and the ale and whores! :) Matt

Looking for a system. I will check out Dawning Star and Traveler D20, and I am also intrigued by the new Star Wars. Thanks for the help so far everyone. Matt

Hi, I am looking to possibly run something different than my usual fantasy game, and wanted to know if there are any decent Sci-fi/Space Opera type games out there. I am quite unfamiliar with this genre of gaming (the last time I played a futuristic setting game was RIFTS, and Star Frontiers...

I have most of the books to draw on, so that's not a problem. I was mostly wondering if the Wild Shapes were useful, once I was able to take them :) Improved Initiative is my standby, and I had not even thought about Scribe Scroll...thanks for that! Matt

Happy New Year everyone, With the new year comes a new campaign, and I actually get to play in it. It is a Norse setting so I've decided to try out a Druid (usually play the Fighter-type). We get to start our characters at 2nd level, and I have put the character together except his feats (he...

Happy Christmas everyone!
