I'm looking for a "good" mapping program that will run on a Mac. Is Dunjini my only option? The samples I've seen of this application look great but I've some worries about it based on the Dunjini forums such as ownership change, lack of tangible updates, and inability to adjust scale and size...

Glorantha the Second Age by Mongoose!! Great book, full deep cultural and religious information with more adventure hooks then you've got players hats! 100% Fluff 0% Crunch. Thats right not one rule, completely system neutral and it details one of the greatest worlds ever- easily as old as...

Humakt If you know your Glorantha you know this is the only answer. 'nuff said!

Boy it is weird what spells people feel would change the game! In my game it would be; Detect Good/Evil Protection from good/Evil Cure Light Wounds Magic Missle Used almost every game.

Glorantha the Second Age by Mongoose System-less Magical Different, but similar -it's like Vanilla with Hot Fudge and Whipcream and nuts and a cherry! The God Learner Empire - an aggressive, expansive empire whose upper echelon/ class members have unlocked the secrets of the gods, capable of...

The Suel are one of the "proto" human races in Greyhawk, their empire was wiped out in the pre-history of the world. The few pure Suel peoples left in Greyhawk (and the Scralet Brotherhood are one) tend to be elietist and raciest in the fantasy sense of the words.

And yet you advertise-is this irony?

Thanks for all the input. I like the idea that we can finish in an hour, since neither my son or I get to roleplay much these days we've been moving toward wargaming for a few years. The problem is even the fastest of the historical rule sets we use take a few hours, during heavy work loads or...

Since I rarely if ever get to role-play anymore! My son and I were passing thru a local comic shop and he spotted a bunch of individual minis for sale under the counter and asked if we could get some. Now I've got a slew of metal minis dating back to the dawn of time, but I'm intrigued by this...

I can't stop pimping Heroquest. It is and has been my favorite RPG since it came out a few yearsback, and I've been doing this for a little while. Admitedly it's not for everyone- seems to be love or hate, and is really dependent on players and DMs being able to shift their D20 gears. But it...

My first reaction is to disagree with MPA, but after thinking it through I think I'd try and come up with a convienient way of removing the 1/2orc for the session. Then have the player run Demitri, it would really trun up the tension and "role"-play, and I think be way more fun. Besides past...

Have you ever thought of writing up a Heroquest (the roleplaying game not the boardgame) conversion document? Since I bought the little gazateer when it first came out I've felt this was a world better served by the Herowars/Heroquest ruleset.

OK I only read the first page of posts so if this has been mentioned please excuse me, and if I come off as a smarmy b@stard -well sometimes I am. But, I’m a smarmy b@stard who spends a lot of cash on gaming stuff, so I do my part to support the industry. While I feel the OGL and 3.X did amazing...

I'm not interested in new core classes, but what about the feats? I'd like to expand beyond the players handbook feats available in my game, yet keep it to a managable number of available and in line with feats in the 1st PH. Thanks, Andy

Thanks for the info. Although a likely enventual purchase due to rave reviews -it's not what I need now. I agree "straight" D&D is whts going to get me players. After the few intereview games I can weed thru them and push my alternative gaming agenda.

I’m looking to start up a new game in a new town; I’ve not played in a looong time so it should be interesting. For the game I’d like to eliminate alignments as well as do something new for me. Does Iron Heroes use alignments? If so, since it’s low magic how tough will it be to remove them? In...

I'm looking for input on a purchase of an online play software. Any input on what people are using and how its working for them would be great. At the moment I'm torn between two- Screenmonkey and Fantasy Grounds. Your help is appreaciated, Andy

This module had the ballon-people or bubble-people that popped if you poked them!

Way back in the olden days the Romans used incendiary pigs! I believe the pigs were covered naphtha, pointed at the enemy line and lit on fire. It must have been effective since they kept doing it. Certainly it would scare me- I mean a big old screaming, flaming pig running at me- yikes! Plus I...

True enough, I just really appreciate what I feel is an already slick well thought system for adjudicating the use of skills. Now all that to the side, I did implement a small house rule for people who needed a skill system in my game, after characters are made pick a secondary skill/ side...
