    Player's Guide to Fighters and Barbarians

    I picked it up at Gen Con. I hadn't heard about it at all, but when I saw it, the only thing I could think was, 'It couldn't be worse than Masters of the Wild ...' Finally, a book for barbarians that doesn't stink! Actually ... make that ... 'Finally, a book for barbarians!' Ethan Parker

    Yeah, as of 1:57 PM Central time Monday, the site is still down and I desperately want the file. I tried downloading it earlier, and got it in some shape, but Adobe PDF reader claimed it was damaged and could not be repaired. Anyone? Ethan Parker

    Jabberwocky

    From what I've been told, the Jabberwocky was an actual monster in 2nd edition. I was wondering in what book did it appear and whether or not it has been adapted to 2nd edition. Ethan Parker

    ELH from buy.com

    Here's the complete history of my ordeal: July 23rd, placed order for 2 ELH for a grand total of $27.64. On July 27th, I got the "Still Looking" e-mail. On August 1st, I e-mailed Buy.com because I had not heard anything from them, and I had been sent to warehouse since I ordered. That e-mail...

    Templates and Character Level

    I have a bit of a question: If a character, say, makes a half-dragon character that is a fifth level fighter, would that mean his effective character level is 7 or 8 (I don't have my PHB or DMG or MM with me right now so I can't remember what te CR increase is) or is that character still...

    Did you know about D&D's reputation before buying?

    The story of my downfall into D&D is an odd one. I have been gaming for 10 years and I hadn't touched D&D at all in those years (except once, at a local convention). My brother got me into gaming, and he only gave me one piece of advice: Don't play Rifts. You see, the first games I got into was...

    "Love to Hate" versus "Hate to Hate"

    Unless my grizzled eyes fail me, no one has suggested Orcs at the Gates or Maul of America from Jolly Roger Games. Both are a lot of fun with any number of people. The unfortunate thing is that one person has to be the Zombie Controller or the Orc Master, which cuts down on the player factor...
