    E6: The Game Inside D&D

    Oh, have you seen my suggestions about improving exposition? That'd be easy to implement with the pregens you will absolutely totally 100% be making because you love your game and want it to be fun. Piratecat had some awesome suggestions for running adventures at cons that are very relevant...

    E6: The Game Inside D&D

    I'd pick a dragon around CR 12 to show off what those PCs can really take, but try to create a situation where the PCs have a few different avenues to gain info, do recon, or gain an advantage over the dragon. I'd suggest having the dragon "trapped" in a cave complex - not in a single room mind...

    If it wasn't for gleemax stealing my glee and flushing it down a toilet, this would be a glee overload!

    I see Gary, but where's Barry, Larry, and Jerry? Not to mention Mary, Carrie, and Terri.

    Good (card) Suit names?

    You know, you might be onto something there. Let me keep pondering.

    Good (card) Suit names?

    The second is the answer to the first. You know Wizard decks? They have the regular cards plus 4 wizards and 4 jesters. 8/15 is like having 2 decks with different backs and a Wizard and Joker in each suit.

    Good (card) Suit names?

    Erikson's deck and its relation to reality is fantastic - I'm trying to stay away from direct copying though. This is going to be released Creative Commons Attribution so anyone can use it. Each suit is either masculine (8 male, 7 female) or feminine (reverse). Each suit has all combinations...

    Good (card) Suit names?

    Tempting (get it? tempting? get it? AHAHAHAHAA... heh... pheww) A little on the pessimistic for the whole deck to be devoted to sin :) I like to think of these as the 120 building blocks of the reality I'm creating.

    Good (card) Suit names?

    Depends on whether you count the 10. Then you'd have 48 :) I have: A, B, C, D, (E/10), 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, O So each suit has an Alpha and an Omega in addition to the cards you'd expect.

    Good (card) Suit names?

    There are some funny things you can do without going into Magic: The Gathering. Here's how far I've gotten BEFORE I got into the tricky business of identifying suits. I'm fascinated by the number 120 - it has all sorts of properties that appeal to classical numerology (divisibility being a...

    Good (card) Suit names?

    I'm not a big fan of having a separate major arcana; I prefer having more face cards and more suits, with "major arcana" fitting into them. To me "Major Arcana" and "Minor Arcana" is so 3e. In 4e EVERYTHING is Major. :D

    I had no idea the I Ching was broken down into 8 symbols... interesting. VERY interesting.

    Good (card) Suit names?

    I'm making my Great Deck, which is something that's been brewing for awhile. The deck has 120 cards: 8 suits of 15 cards each. I've got several very important factors worked out (some of the tarot-like properties of the cards), but I'm having a hard time thinking of suit names, which would...

    Ptolus. The product raises the bar. If I'm down to WotC: Draconomicon. When I was a boy I wish I could have had something like this. Now I have a daughter; she's so tiny she could sleep on the cover. One day I hope she takes it off the shelf and asks me what it's about.

    Check out Abulafia.com - you and they seem to have similar purposes. Your combined forces might be unimaginable. Edit: Scratch that, use http://www.random-generator.com/index.php?title=Main_Page Instead.
