Does anyone here own Mongoose's Ultimate Equipment Guide Volume II? I'm confused by the OGL statement on the table of contents page. In part, it reads: "All text is to be considered Open Gaming Content. All other significant characters, names, places, items, art and text herein are copyrighted...

We had a player web cam into our games for a few sessions. * He eventually lost interest because it wasn't the same as "being there in person." So, look for ways to keep the player involved and interested. * Assign the web cam to a player to manage. I was GMing, and the first session I was...

Good topic. I agree with what Psion and Dark Psion said. Plus, some misc requests: 1) A world database. Let me find what I want via a website and a search feature fast. Allow fans to upload new content (i.e. NPCs, maps, locations, art) that gets reviewed and approved in a timely manner. 2)...

I'm using HM: Little Keep for my D&D 3.5 campaign and it's going well. Kenzer's fleshed out the Keep very nicely and helped inspire many personal tweaks. NPCs and critters I'm recreating for D&D without trying to mirror the HM version. "Mid-level thug? Ok, Ftr7 coming up!" Some of the...

Awesome, thanks. T'was what I sought. BTW, the new RSS aggregator extension for Firefox, Habari, is great. I prefer it to sage now.

Does anyone know the syndication id for the reviews section that appears on the ENWorld homepage?

I use WikiPad for my game planning and note-taking these days. http://www.jhorman.org/wikidPad/ 30 day free trial. $12 to buy. Once you get used to the idea of Wiki words, as opposed to tables of contents and tree views, it feels a bit liberating and becomes easy to use and reference with...

Awesome, thanks!

I remember reading about a site in the forums that has indexed the various rules from books and supplements. You look up the feat, skill, rule, etc. and the site tells you what book the rule is from. Does anyone have this link?

I often decide I don't want a product for various reasons, but then I'll read a review that'll change my mind. So, I can say reviews have indeed directly affected my purchase decisions. I prefer reviews that are longer and more in depth, with lots of headers for easy skimming. Short reviews have...

A friend's girlfriend, in a fit of anger during a quarrel, ripped out a single page from his PHB. And it seemed that every session someone would get caught trying to find a 1st level cleric spell and ask, "where the hell are the first level cleric spells?" So, maybe another rule of thumb is to...

Some other possibilities for initiative cards: * You have a card for each player and monster. When a player Delays, give them their card and let them hand it back to you when they're ready to jump in again. Saves you having to track this yourself. * Create fast NPC and monster cards by...

I've run the module several times and like it a lot. Half those times we were in munchkin mode, so the killing and looting matched our style perfectly. Last time I ran it in 1999 I used T1 and T2 as settings. The PCs were too low level to take on the Temple's inhabitants directly, so they posed...

I use MyInfo and find it awesome. I haven't used The Journal or the other PIMs mentioned in the thread, but these are some of the MyInfo features I like and some of the ways I use them: * Templates for NPCs, places, etc. You just type up your stuff, lay it out, and then tell MyInfo it's a...

I use a giant pad of 1" grid paper ($10 at Staples). I then draw the map for the PCs in crayon and this saves a lot of time and communication confusion. We then place figs right on the map for battles and exploration. This method lets me draw things to the upper range of the PCs' vision as they...
