    Would you leave your life behind?

    Nope. Love my wife and kids. DnD gives me all the joy and pain of fantasy worlds without the scars and gore.

    Banishing "Sacred Cows"

    And I think you need 'em! It could easily be scaled back a die: d8, d6, d4 instead. Playtesting, playtesting, playtesting!!!! That's the only way to know for sure.

    Banishing "Sacred Cows"

    I'd like to see HP advancement tied to race as well as class. if dwarves are supposed to be tough, they should be getting more hp per level as an elf does for equal classes. I don't think con bonuses do it justice. Here is what i am thinking: dwarves/half-orcs: d10 per level humans: d8 per...

    Does anyone have

    I own everything TSR ever produced for Lankhmar setting, but I'm not willing to sell any of it. However, many of the supplements pop up on ebay for $3-$5 plus shiping. If you have a question let me know, and I'll try to answer. Warning: many of the supplements suck. They did not do a good...

    D&D 3.1E: What to change?

    Vaxalon, Femerus, Neowolf, and Kenjib: Thanks for the pointers, I really do appreciate it.

    D&D 3.1E: What to change?

    You might be right. I haven't *ever* given psionics much thought, even back in the 1E days. Thanks for pointing that out. I'll give it some consideration. What I'm really looking for is core kinds of magic that a spellcaster can augment with more power. Say for example, you learn basic fire...

    What D&D sites do you visit?

    I'm pretty much with Henry here. Ken Hood's site is nice. I like the Bushfighter. I hit many manufacturer sites, but usually because they are linked from here.

    D&D 3.1E: What to change?

    I'd like a good spell-point magic system. I'm going to give the everquest rpg a good long look and see what I can pull from there, as long as my players are up for it. Of course re-working magic is probably to much for a .1 rev. More like a new version. I dunno. I'm not unhappy with the...

    Your college exp

    Yes, I went to college. No I did not play in college at all, even though Purdue has a pretty strong RPG tradition (Jeff Grubb, the MotP author, is a Purdue Civil Engineering alum, for example). I had quit the game around '87 for a number of reasons(none of which had anything to do with...

    Up, up, and away? Or just away?

    nope. not me. not at all. and not because I think it is a bad idea, I just have limited time and resources. I prefer swords and sorcery, followed by post apocalyptic games. Part of this is because I prefer lower magic, grittier games. Super hero games have always appeared to be too over...

    Ideas for games with younger people

    Try to pick up some of the old DnD choose-your-path adventure paperback books. You could read them to her and let her make the choice. They can be had for about $2 each on ebay, or often in lots of 3-5, and at used bookstores. Other than that, I really don't know. I seem to remeber seeing...

    (ot)in search of 80's inspirado

    Don't forget the German band, Accept. The had this cool song called "Balls to the Wall". It rocked. Oh, and Tygers of PanTang I graduated in 1987. I dressed then like I do now, and have since middle school: 1) T-shirt with a pocket, t-shirt with a radio station logo (still have a WMET...

    How many people use these boards?

    2 points: 1) The large number of visitors is testament to your hard work, and Eric's before. Thank you very much. 2) Until recently, I lurked since Eric Noah's days. Often, I would find that just digging through the threads would answer my questions directly, or spin me off on a tangent...

    ...the REST of our gaming groups

    I play in one group and DM in another. In the group I play in, I am the youngest at 33. There are 2 separate games being run in that group. One is a mutant 1E mega-world (ridiculously high stats and magic, etc..) and the other is a straight up 1E. Nobody in that group, with the exception of...

    Converted Campaign settings I'd like to see...

    I'd like to see Lankhmar done right. A lot of the 2nd ed supplements were terrible. Apart from bad editing, bad content, and missing material (as in material referred to in the same supplement that didn't exist), one author in particular just ignored some of the more important elements of the...

    [OT] Board Game suggestions?

    RoboRally, Settlers of Cataan, and HeroQuest would be my recommendations. Also, we play Cosmic Encounter quite a bit, but the old one with all the expansions. I have not played the new Haze Bros. edition. You also might want to give cards a try. 3 handed Pinochle can be fun. There is a game...

    "Editorials?"

    I vote no. You/we already have a forum to babble away in, the messageboards. Anything morrus says will be taken as editorial anyway, cause you run the site! Not that I am not interested in what you have to say, I just don't think we need a dedicated venue for it.
