Hey Eosin! I'm really impressed with everything you're doing. That's basically my dream too: to have my own setting published. I've sort of vaguely worked at it for years, but I have a really hard time organizing it in a manner someone else can follow. I would kill to get the template for...

I find that a modern setting just fails to appeal to me. At all. Not that I didn't like things like the movies you suggested, but I have never seen someone successfully transform a modern movie into a modern campaign. I like playing in campaigns where everything can be customized. Playing in...

XPH is the Expanded Psionics Handbook. ie. the 3.5 version.

Dang it. Well, imagine that there's a guy with a big sword saying so! Oh, and my name comes from an electronic component. With nerd/geek/dork skills like that, I obviously need an RPG book!

Other than the fact that the guy with the big sword said so? Because I love collecting obscure items, and then drawing bits of them into my campaigns. I don't think I've ever run a game where I didn't somehow manage to mix systems, and more material gives me more stuff to mix! Oh, and I'm...

Bullcrap. The case of someone downloading a PDF and having their IP discovered is much more akin to this: A lot of gas stations have outside security cameras aligned to film the bumpers of cars that go through. Let's suppose that someone drives through, fills up, and drives off without...

Actually, those would be invasions of privacy too except for one important note: the End User License Agreement. You remember all that legal mumbo-jumbo that most people just click OK to when installing a program? Well, part of that agreement gives Microsoft/Norton/whomever the permission...

The distinction people are really looking for is "larceny" vs. "copyright infringement." Stealing a book from a bookstore is a case of larceny, because the thief has deprived the bookstore of possession of the book. Copying a book in a bookstore with a portable copier is NOT a case of larceny...

A lot of people seem to be blowing those who are peeved off by saying "Well, you don't have to buy it." That's not exactly true. Most of my gaming I do online as I don't have a reliable group to play with in person. I will probably have to at least get the new PHB, since any changes to the...
