The HERO system has a neat little maneuver called Dive For Cover that allows sudden movement. IIRC you make a Dex roll to determine how many hexes you move. For most characters one or two hexes was about the best you could do. In my experience the most common usage for Dive For Cover was to...

My plan is use in media res for every session of my next campaign. Every session will begin with a fight or occasionally a chase or some other action sequence. "Roll for initiative" will be the first thing I say every time we start play. I plan on using some of the opening fights like violent...

Thought of another: Complete PHB, the PHB with all the Complete Books integrated and all the DMG prestige classes.

I'd consider paying $100 for a 3.5 rework of T1-4, A1-4, and GDQ 1-9 bound together as a single volume.

I voted "I am male and am uncomfortable with cross gender characters " but I'm trying to get over it. I decided to make my Living Greyhawk character a female as part of an effort to get over this hang-up.

I don't have a scan but I redid the map using Bruce Gulke's Wilderness Mapper program. I'll try to dig up the file and post it. EDIT: You can go here to get my redraw of the Outdoor Survival map.

I won't buy a monster book for a $100. I still haven't purchased Penumbra's Fantasy Bestiary, which looks awesome but is a tad bit pricey for me for a monster book. And that product is under fifty bucks, IIRC. Hah! You rock!

What is the correct math when applying a template worth +X challenge rating to a creature worth less than a whole CR?

Because the company isn't monolithic, we should take Mr. Ryan's word as gospel? That doesn't make sense to me. I take his pronouncement with a grain of salt precisely because large corporations aren't monolithic. If the Hasbro board of director's wants a 4E by Christmas '05, then what could...

Thanks for all the replies. I've been looking over the Necromancer Games stuff and the review posted here. Are Tomb of Abysthor or Rappan-Athuk amenable to multiple dungeon forays, possibly with side adventures in between trips into the dungeon?

Actually my simple point is that businesses change course all the time, but thanks for misreading so much into my post. :) 3.5 was pushed ahead of schedule, was it not? These things can change.

Unless Charles Ryan is the majority stockholder at Hasbro, there is no reason to think that his words are writ upon stone.

I'm starting a new campaign soon that will focus on time-honored activities such as going into holes in the ground, killing orcs, and stealing their gold. Goodman Games produces the kind of modules that I like. I plan on using their products, but I'd like some other sources if they are out...

What's up with some of these product names? Champions of Ruin and Weapons of Legacy almost put me to sleep they're so boring.

Thanks a lot!

I'm glad to hear you could work something out. :)

I didn't know anyone still paid any attention to Ryan Dancey nowadays. I like the 3.5 warrior guide from Goodman, but I'm not enough of a rules maven to know where it's flawed. Can you clue me in?

d20 Thundarr would rock my world. Also, I'd like to see d20 Star Wars done by the folks who were responsible for Mutants & Masterminds and Blue Rose.

I'm not evil. I'm lawful neutral and trying to enforce a contract! But seriously, if you haven't tried talking to your creditor yet do so before they take your car or home. It may not help, but after they take it they will have the advantage in any negotiations. Also, a normal non-jerk type...

I don't think I would pick. I would play an elf ranger.
