    Loooong Campaigns...How Do You Do It?

    I did the second thing, which, without doing the first thing, actually made the problem WORSE. My compatriots don't seem to grasp the value of quest-completion XP...

    What has been your geekiest moment?

    Okay, here's another supergeek moment: In my senior year of high school, I was in Advanced Placement Latin. That SHOULD be enough, but it gets better. For our final project, we were to film our interpretation of a poem. We chose one by Catullus, in which Catullus (played by my friend Liza)...

    The most disturbing thing youve seen/experienced

    It's all about the Internets. The most disturbing thing I've ever seen was a video of a motorcycle crash in which a man lost his legs, and another one was stuck so hard in the torso that he DIED. Yeah. That and gore-porn in general. Man I hate 4chan.

    The 10-foot pole, antithesis of what adventuring should be?

    As far as I can remember, the 10' pole was officially introduced as an aid to the Balance skill. Something like a +2 bonus? Now, obviously it was introduced with the possible jokes in mind; it would kind of have to be. But, why steer clear of them? The item has a logical, ordinaryish...

    Memorable Dragons

    Oh, wow. Now that I think of it, I have another story to share, one kind of reminiscint of Moon-Lancer's. In a game in which I am the player, we (the PCs) recently visited a village that was watched over by an ancient Amethyst dragon named Warren. He is not the significant one. The...

    Memorable Dragons

    That is a dirty, filthy lie, and you have sullied our reality by introducing it.

    What creatures would you like to see next in the Icons Miniatures line?

    I want the Tarrasque. That is my only demand. I want the Tarrasque to come over the mountain.

    How do you slay a red dragon?

    A Wish spell. ...what? That's how I'd do it. Seriously, though, if there's 1 thing I learned from the writings of R. A. Salvatore, it's that a dragon should NEVER sleep right under a GIGANTIC STALACTITE. This is a patently bad idea.

    How Many 3.X Books In Your Collection?

    Okay, then. I have about 14. 15 if you count Iron Heroes. [EDIT]: Nevermind, didn't see WotC. That also eliminates the WLD, and two campaign settings. Make that 11.

    Hammer Kick ... ?

    I should think a standard action would be appropriate, and a Jump check would be required, perhaps DC 10 or 15, providing bonuses to damage in relation to the degree to which you beat the DC. Beat it by 10 or more, and you achieve a knockdown. [EDIT]: Also, this must be said: UH OH! UH OH UH...

    Do you mean 3.0, 3.5, or both?

    Loooong Campaigns...How Do You Do It?

    That's odd... Maybe I'm to free with XP? By the end of my campaign (which lasted about 10 months), the party was about level 18... Of course, we met every week for about 6-8 hours, so that might have sped things along. If that isn't long-running, then I have no answer to your question.

    New Elven Favoured Class?

    Swashbuckler, all the way. Elves are jaunty and dexterous, swashbucklers are jaunty and dexterous. Nuff said.

    How do you go about making your own world?

    I think there are two ways to go about it, and I can share my experiences with each. The first way is to design a setting around a campaign. This is a great way to make sure that everything is perfect for that campaign. In general, it starts around one point, one key location; ironically, for...

    Albany Gameday VI - Sept. 9th - Thanks for coming

    Bumped out of necessity. Also to shamelessly increase my post count. Also, guedo, you can PM me if you want, since I am now a community supporter.

    So, uh, how does one organise a gameday?

    I feel the same way, buddy. I'm organizing the next Albany Gameday, and I'm only 19. But, hey, anything to maintain the glory of the ALBANY GAMEDAY!! Muhuha, muhuha...

    Favorite non-book game aide.

    That reminds me: does anyone know where I could find good Area-of-Effect template for a Hex grid? I can't seem to find any that are worthwhile.
