    Stardust

    Neil Gaiman is a favorite author of mine. If you liked the movie, then read the book. It is a great classic faerie tale written by a modern author. ...and if you haven't done so yet, read the his novel, American Gods.

    Where's the Bard?

    Those examples seem much closer thematically to the Warlord class (IMO).

    Houserule: Non Adventuring Skills

    For those familiar with it, how would porting the skills and skill contest rules from Burning Wheel work out for covering non-combat skills? Would a separate skill system be that bad an idea? One could even come up with lifepaths for characters to pick that have no bearing on ones...

    Swallow Whole?

    It depends on the anatomy of the swallower and the route that the swallowee takes on his way out. In regards to humans, being disemboweled is rarely anywhere close to an instant death. Cutting your way out through the belly of a T-Rex may invariably kill it, but it very well could have...

    worlds and monsters is in my hands

    I am pretty sure that bronze is an alloy of tin and copper (not brass). Brass is an alloy of copper and zinc.

    Dragonborn: Boobs or No Boobs?

    Dragonborn should be one large, ambulatory mammary gland, which is constantly lactating. End of discussion.

    ROME - HBO series..our favorite series

    I agree. It is, without a doubt, my favorite show. The wife and I have been giving away the DVD sets as gifts to our friends and family.

    From R&C: Fighters & Armor

    Though D&D (or any rpg) would really be better with the addition of chainswords!!! ;)

    Effects lasting until the end of the encounter, w00t!

    I don't think that it will be a big deal, as long as one can equate "encounters" with "scenes".

    Speed Racer live-action movie trailer!

    Freakin' awesome!!! I wasn't really interested in this one until now. I hope the film can deliver on the promises of that trailer.

    House

    As much as I have enjoyed the previous seasons of House, I have to admit that I am pretty disappointed in the current season. I am starting to think that last seasons finally should have been the end of the show.

    Disc World

    Small Gods gets my vote as well. It was my first diskworld novel, and completely sold me on Pratchett as an author.

    Real powered armor

    Watching the video, all I could think about was the smart guns from Aliens. With enough additional strength and mass, a soldier could accuratly weild a machine gun from a standing position. Do you remember all of those crazy 80's movies like Rambo or Predator? I am all for anything that makes...
