    Gotta go, gotta go, gotta go right now!

    IME, I've always found it to be a warning sign when the players are not taking their turns. 1) Player is sulking. The one in mind was continually disturbed by class imbalance (3.5 game) and mad that his character had nothing to contribute. 2) Player really does have nothing significant to...

    Linking Dungeon Delve adventures...

    Wow, this book has created some crazy demand for Dungeon Tiles DU1 "Hall of the Giant Kings". $80 on eBay. I should have put my money there instead of shorting stocks last summer.

    Forked Thread: Ryan Dancey - D&D in a Death Spiral (Keep it Real)

    That wasn't his point. His point was that some folks is talking a bunch of bullpucky and naming it facts.

    Linking Dungeon Delve adventures...

    I unfortunately don't have my copy of Dungeon Delve in front of me. Just replying to give a thread about games (rather than game companies) some love.

    Anyone else feel indifferent about the PDF thing?

    I'd be curious as to what percentage of posts at ENWorld are about gaming or games any more, and how many are about the business of gaming. As I scan the first page of the General forum. it seems to me that the vast majority of threads are about the latter, either attacking or defending WotC...

    Anyone else feel indifferent about the PDF thing?

    Relax, Black Avenger, it was just an observation.

    Anyone else feel indifferent about the PDF thing?

    Wow, so now to support or not care about this decision is to hate on childhood cancer victims. Well played...

    Par for the course around here these days.

    Was V's act evil? (Probable spoilers!)

    Rich, as a storyteller, has portrayed this as an evil act. V is influenced by evil souls, he is casting evil spells, he looks eeeevil. The dragon, on the other hand, was in his last moments, given some sympathetic qualities - she surrendered, she was horrified. If genocide itself didn't ring...

    4E Eberron: Kalashtar = Deva? I disagree.

    Eberron's use of established core races as a mechanical means to deliver a race that has significantly different fluff is already well precedented. The Aerenal elves, the Drow, and the Talenta Halflings are all examples of races whose fluff is significantly different from core. Yet, the design...

    What do you think the new setting will be, from Ampersand?

    I never played more Dark Sun than a few sessions at Gen Con, but I liked it and I think it's coming back. The reason is that dark, apocalyptic settings tend to do well in times of uncertainty and turmoil. The youth in such times tend to eat up mainstream nihilism with a spoon. Witness that...

    One thing that bothers me lately about 4E players

    Read the title of the post. "One thing that bothers me lately about 4E players". I'll stop being offended when he stops attacking me in the title of his post.

    On Subraces...

    Choice is good. Subraces are choices, therefore they are good. It is easier to ignore something in a system or setting that you don't like than to try to invent it if they leave it out. For all of the high-fiving that Eberron fans do about the lack of subraces in Eberron, all it boils down to...

    Coinage in your Games?

    I introduced a combination of "uninteresting" coinage and "interesting" coinage into my Eberron game. 1) Basic spending money used the gp, minted by House Kundarak and standard across the continent of Khorvaire. These had a variety of denominations, bits, pennants, scepters, crowns, Galifars...

    How much money do plan on purchasing 3E/OGL products this year?

    I hope to actually turn a profit by selling off 3.x stuff.

    Are there any messageboards that are as sympathetic and supportive of 4e as ENWorld was for 3e in the beginning?

    How do I handle: 2 players want same game, but won't play with each other?

    General rule: don't play games with uptight people. If Player A dislikes Player B for reasons that you think are invalid, that is a reason to disqualify Player A. If they are valid, why are you playing with Player B? IMG, Player A got angry at Player B because Player B was reporting negative...
