    Player Complaints About Pre-Gens

    Ummmm right about the time that OD&D (1974) was published? I think that was when it happened. Yup right about then. So yes - you've been out of touch for quite a while.

    What should a Worldwide D&D Gameday adventure have?

    Well since WotC didn't send my FLGS a retailer kit for this years D&D day (despite siad retailer asking over a month ahead of time) I made up some intro characters and adventures to run for that day. I used 8th level characters (and had all spells selected before hand so I could weed out the...

    Which Adventure Should I Run Next?

    I'll say Racing the Snake (just because it is very different and I thought really well written) or make up something new for the Isle of Dread. Don't get me wrong I really love the IoD but the adventure in 114 was a little flat to me. I used the Isle as the launching point of my Age of Worms...

    Iconic Monster Use - The Aboleth

    Considering how often Aboleth was mentioned as one of the 'must haves' for the D&D miniatures line I am surprised at the poll results. Pleased (since I have never used one and probably never will and really didn't want to see a huge Aboleth miniature) but surprised.

    Poll: Minis, battlemats and interpretation thereof

    I've always used minis in RPGs and they are always literal representatrions of where the characters are. I really don't see how it can be any other way.

    I think I might be seeing the end of the RPG shop concept in this area?

    Is this really surprising that brick and mortar stores are getting out of RPGs. A lot of people are ordering their RPGs from online sources now so most b&m stores see little business in RPGs. Keep saving that 30%!

    Savage Tide AP not intriguing me

    I'm excited about Savage Tides. Of course it will probably been finished in Dungeon by the time I get my one group through Age of Worms and my othewr group through my Rage of Dragons campaign.

    Are you buying Dragon Magic?

    Dragon Magic is one I was a bit leary of when I first heard about it. One look through at my FLGS and I bought it on the spot. The spells, invocations, stuff for the Dragon Shaman all fit into my Rage of Dragons campaign. It's too bad some people can't look past a title of all things. :\

    Dragon Magic

    I don't have Races of the Dragon but found Dragon Magic nearly 100% useable without it. I really like this book especially the new invocations for the Warlock and a possible invocation for the Dragon Shaman from PHB 2 (he can replace a 5th level Aura with one Least Invocation). The spells have...

    Tell me what to buy!

    Complete Adventurer is the best of the crop and one of best books WotC ever put out imo. The other three are OK I got them at a deep discount from some folks here on ENWorld. If the OP is limited to just 2 or 3 books (and a DM to boot) I would recommend Draconomicron, PHB 2 and DMG 2...

    Need a Ruined Castle and Quickly!

    Hey all! I was hoping the ENWorld community could help me find a ruined castle map somewhere out there in internet land. I am currently combing my Dungeon mag collection but nothing yet. Basically I want a map of a castle that looks like it has suffered extreme damage. Ruined walls, towers...

    Shackeled City - what are my chances and when do you give XP?

    Talked to my DM tonight and he is going to be giving us the XP we've earned so far (easily enough to level us up to 2nd)and seemed very open to the idea of giving XP as we go in the future. I am really glad he's going to ease up on the XP thing (even though I do mostly the same thing in my...

    Shackeled City - what are my chances and when do you give XP?

    :eek: Oh boy. I never knew that. Hopefully I can use some of the info you guys have given me to convince him we need a bit of a break in the XP department. I really want to thank everyone who has posted - I feel better informed about what the expectations are in the SCAP.

    If DMing was a job, how much should you get paid?

    Dude - he's talking about the exchange rate for Jebus's sake. Uh oh! Now I broke the no religion rule! :confused:

    If DMing was a job, how much should you get paid?

    You are not getting paid enough. DMing for children would be like Hell being mixed with Disco ;)

    What To Do with Player?

    I was going to comment on that myself. That was the thing that tells me this guy is bad news. Get him out of your group and your life as quickly as possible. He sounds like a poisonous individual from what you have posted here.

    Shackeled City - what are my chances and when do you give XP?

    Wew - that's a heavy endorsement for allowing levelling during an adventure if I ever saw one! I absolutely agree with the DM being allowed to award XP when he sees fit - I do the same thing in my own games. However the DM told us during out last session that he was actually upping the number...

    Shackeled City - what are my chances and when do you give XP?

    I really don't want to dump the SCAP as my DM bought it specially for us and I am having fun. But I keep thinking about how lucky we have been up to now and the fact that one hit can now fell even our toughest fighter. I emailed my DM so hopefully he will come around.
