    Torrent's Fate

    FWIW, I think there is a throwaway line at the end of Shelter that says Eril goes on his mission, and Torrent is sent to negotiate with the Shalahesti. IF you told your party that, you may have to back track.

    Dungeon Master's Mat Set now on sale from Gale Force Nine

    Peter, I like the concept. Since I am in the market for another smaller mat or two, I've a couple questions about this product: 1) Will wet erase show up well on these mats? With the dark gray and darkish green mats, I am concerned that even black (let alone any other color) will not be...

    Reasons why going down the Essentials line of thinking is a mistake !!!

    Both at my table, from the most fiddly Runepriest to the most basic (Knight). What I prefer as DM is of little consequence in this matter. Since mixing neither ruins nor complicates the game, I am glad to DM what the players prefer, as long as it matches the context of the campaign arc itself.

    XP - Somewhat Positive

    It says and always has said Copper Subscriber under my name. I don't recall ever specifying that it should say that, but perhaps there is a profile setting for it.

    Movies/books/tv that've inspired your D&D/RPG games?

    I was wondering if this would be mentioned. After much of the typical fantasy stuff, it was what I thought of. Balanced party if I ever saw it.

    Where is Legends and Lore?

    Doesn't bother me, I always read the full compiled PDF versions of Dungeon and Dragon at the end of the month with all the articles in one spot for me. Hey ... waitaminutethere! :p

    Help - New Blinding look?

    Strangely, on my laptop, my background is still the same black it has always been, and I have never knowingly altered any settings for it. However, on my iPad, the forum did go white a few days ago, and still is. So I have been reading both ways for the last couple days. Still prefer the...

    Gold / Bazaar Questions

    Not that it matters, but I still get the monthly notices of subscription gold but I do not think my balance changes. :erm:

    XP - Somewhat Positive

    Interesting - I never knew this. Are you saying that as you get more XP on one post, that it becomes more valuable to your XP total? We know that @Morrus gives out super XP, but 420 to 450 seems like a large jump.

    GMing help

    There are mor than a few areas that I could improve my own DMing skills, but by far the biggest is to do a much better job of incorporating the "yes, but..." response. I can empathize with where the OP is coming from, but would suggest they focus their time and energy on improving the ability...

    Pathfinder 1E Pathfinder sales

    Interesting. In my area, 4E is on the rise, and nobody has ever even heard of pathfinder, let alone played it! Ever! Never mind what the terms "on the rise" and "my area" mean. Isn't this fun?

    Moster Manual priority

    I believe it.

    Moster Manual priority

    Full quote for truth. This is exactly what I would suggest and prioritize (excepting that I have no context for Dark Sun and would therefore remove it from my own list.)

    Difference between Monster Vault and Threats of Nentir vale?

    If you are prioritizing a purchase, IMO you should definitely get the original MV first. It is much more extensive, much more broadly applicable to all tiers, and has some extra goodies (map/short adventure.) I think I am the exception, but I was under whelmd by MV:Threats to NV. Although...

    Pathfinder 1E Pathfinder sales

    There is a lot of that going around I suppose.

    D&D Rubbish? Hmmm...

    There will be exceptions, but in contrast to the 70s and 80s, I think many current young RPG gamers are actually introduced by their parents. We can argue it all we want, but the 'default' fantasy game for a curious 11 year old today is going to have content delivered from a screen and by a...

    AD&D Publication Timeline -- weird

    Now wait a minute: Nobody here is suggesting that people actually enjoyed a game with some disjointed rules, poor release roadmaps, inconsistent communication, and unclear product delineation, are they?

    D&D Rubbish? Hmmm...

    No doubt. and the Model T was garbage when released. Why didn't they use carbon fibre?! And where was the starter motor? So much wrong! (Not picking on you at all, MitFH. I just find it interesting that we so easily pick apart the efforts of pioneers)

    D&D Rubbish? Hmmm...

    I actually stopped watching about two minutes in. I may go back and catch the rest, but it appears he was trying to play the role of "the snearing objectivist", and I think failing a bit. By way of example: He mentioned how Orcs sound "Gruff & Ungrammatical" and Knights use "flowery...

    D&D 5E cancelled 5e announcement at Gencon??? Anyone know anything about this?

    I have bought a bunch of 4e material, play 4e, and there is no reason that I'll have to stop! Ha!!!
